Eeeeeexcellent.
Nov. 7th, 2005 06:41 pmGuess what.
I'm going to NYC for a publishing job interview in January! Woo-hoo!
I ran the gamut of possibilities for the three interviews I applied for. HarperCollins accepted me (WHEEEE!), Random House listed me as an alternate (if someone who got chosen doesn't want to interview, I can sign up instead), and Holtzbrinck (owns Tor, Bedford/St. Martin's, etc.) rejected my application. I am uberexcited about getting even one acceptance, though, because...HarperCollins. And possibly Random House. Woot!

You are an Iris:
You are logical, analytical, dignified, and wise.
You are studious by nature and may prefer books
to people. You tend to be a serious person but
are capable of making others laugh with your
dry sense of humor. Friends always benefit from
your advice.
Symbolism: Over the centuries the iris has come to
symbolize faith, wisdom, hope, and promise in
love.
Which Flower are You?

I had more to say here, but it all flew out of my head. Alas.

Date: 2005-11-08 11:43 pm (UTC)The interview day is January 6th. I think, since I've never been to NYC before, I'm going to stay a couple days longer than that, though, so I might be there from, say, the 3rd through the 7th or something like that. I need to either find someone to stay with or see how long my dad can take off...
