Go for it

Excellent, Catnik!

Said laurel is a lit prof and has been published, so she knows academia

Do it.

looking through CFPs, yeah

VERY sad I missed a good one from July

What’s ToA again?

"Tournament of Arts" - you set out your schtuff, and meet with a series of Laurels 1-on-1. 3 50 minutes sessions and 3 20 minute ones. (I wound up with two at one of my 20 minutes, because she really wanted to see my stuff because I had Thomas Dekker)

Wow! That sounds like running a gauntlet!

Biggest feedback was actually that I need to look for ways to grab attention - suggestions on how to set up for an A&S display, and like several suggested I do a tik tok or reels with a weekly "fun fact"

The most notable ABSENCE?

Basically everyone looked at my work, said my research and documentation and everything was well done, no notes, so lets talk about how to get you noticed

understand, none of these were Laurels I know

Strut girl, you earned it!

Okay, that’s a unicorn experience right there.

Yeah, so I came off that feeling pretty good

No kidding!

to be fair: I think I can safely say I am the leading expert for theatre history in the Mid, and probably rank well in the Society as a whole

but, like, compared to actual phds...

I think you’re probably still pretty up there.

I mean, I can nerd fairly well with them, I have theatre historian friends

Yes, do not share yourself short. You're short enough (Or maybe that's just because I see photos of you standing next to Rahne now and then)

Hey Rahne, if I get laureled, you should come :P

I am Da Giant.

(I do not anticipate getting laureled in any known framework of time)

I can try. Easier if it happens during Pennsic.

Oh, please. You’re past due.

I would be open to Pennsic so long as it is not Mid Court

Midrealm Court is a slog

Okay, guys, sorry, but tummy is angry.

Gotta go.

gentle hugs

Later Rahne!

Later, the Cloud Giants send a letter offering to PAY the Baron and Baroness if they just take Blossom BACK.

Or I will see if Rae is okay with an adventure where someone with flying tech saves the day.

red chief!

Before Home Alone, there was Red Chief.

And a great Redcap role model he was.

Heee

Hi Rae!!

hiiiiiii

We launched Blossom... could be Karma.

totally karma

Never instigated Karma
