Rising Stars Journal: The Way Forward

Reviews and the Way Forward

I have to say that now I'm beginning to get my own stuff at home out of the way, I look forward to getting to grips with the excitement that is the Rising Stars Programme. I purchased my copy of the Anthology today, one of my pieces is lurking inside there and as I was looking back for something, as usual, in my confused state, I had gone back to where they entry date had closed and they were saying that they had hundreds of entries to look through. I was already really excited to have had a piece be chosen but this made me realise even more how special this was. Then to find myself in this programme was a bonus that I wasn't expecting, I didn't even know it existed, so I have to thank Princess Megan Rose for her faith in me and I hope I can fly like an eagle in the months ahead.

I have one concern, I realised that I should have done my first three reviews before the end of October; because I thought they said that the next task started on the 6th November, and with it starting at the end of October, I assumed I had until the next task to do the reviews. By the time I realised I was supposed to have done the three reviews by the end of October it was just too late. I've done three now and maybe I can do another three at the end of the month, I know we're restricted to three but we'll see. It's now 4am here in the UK and I need to turn in for the night.

I've read a mix of stories and poetry today and enjoyed the different types and genre. It's been a good day today.
