I'm still here!

My posts have been very sporadic (some might say spastic) lately, as life has been extremely busy. I an doing some work for a local film festival (having bee laid off from the local music festival), as well as web design for an art auction and ad sales for the local theater company. I gotta tell you, I am tired of working for non-profits! The name of the type of business they are ALONE is enough to tell you the problem, but underlying the facade of being a business (which is, after all, what non-profits are), there is an attitude of entitlement that extends to the people who are employed there that you should be willing to work like a slave even if you are paid a pittance.

I have said in the past that I'm taking training to change my career, and it seems to finally be bearing fruit. I am signing with an agent to be represented in the field of voice over work, and that is the next step into a new adventure for me. I am so grateful and amazed that after three years of classes and practice, I am going to be given the shot at this. It has been a dream of mine for a lot of my life, and to stand on the threshold of this change is exciting, scary, and awesome!

I am also experimenting with a new blog engine (WordPress). I'm not sure what advantages it has over blogger, but I'm checking it out. I may migrate at least some of my posting there in the near future, but for now whatever posting I do will be here.
