I sent my Clarion and Clarion West applications out today. Nothing more to do on that front besides wait. Actually, they suggest that you think positively and read the instructors' works. If I skip the instructors I already have read and loved, this is doable by June. They're all people whose work I should know so I'm going to read all of them whether I get into a workshop or not. (Right now, I'm in the midst of Paul Park's A Princess of Roumania. However, a F&SF just showed up so I want to finish that up first.)
On the off chance that someone I don't know actually stumbles by this blog:
Viable Paradise opened for applications yesterday. It's a one week writing workshop held every fall on Martha's Vineyard. It's a terrific, albeit highly concentrated, experience. You get Elizabeth Bear, Debra Doyle, Steven Gould, James Macdonald, Laura Mixon, Patrick Nielsen Hayden, Teresa Nielsen Hayden, and John Scalzi all at once. I learned a lot from it the year I went. Actually, I'm still learning from it even though I went over two years ago now. Absolutely worth it.
