I actually thought of you when I was writing this; that time I said grant-writing was a long dark night of the soul, definining who I am and what I'm writing, and you said something like, "I just try to fill in the forms properly." I henceforth considered those words to live by.Rebecca Rosenblumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10859985178895250412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403642865904161814.post-46937064418813144392009-09-27T11:07:19.211-04:002009-09-27T11:07:19.211-04:00I gave a worskhop on grant writing for the Writer&...I gave a worskhop on grant writing for the Writer's Trust some time ago. They've still got my notes posted on their site:<br /><br />http://writerstrust.blogspot.com/2007/09/notes-from-grant-writing-for-writers-by.html<br /><br />I don't contradict anything you say. I've received grants, served on juries, and my ex worked a few years at the Ontario Arts Council, so I'm pretty familiar with the process.<br /><br />cheers<br />mAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403642865904161814.post-51384823706736193172009-09-27T03:31:26.017-04:002009-09-27T03:31:26.017-04:00Er, do *not* smell bad.

I...This is the most useful thing I have ever seen.<br /><br />I would write a more useful comment, but I'm afraid I've somehow gotten myself lightly toasted. I am a sesame seed, a crouton, an almond, lightly salted and infused with hickory, floating gently away from the shores of sobriety.<br /><br />I am drunk like something that rhymes with drunk, but not a skunk, because skunks, cute as they might be, don't smell very attractive, and while I can't imagine that I emit some miraculous, soul-cleansing olfactory extravaganza, I do actually smell bad.<br /><br />But seriously now, this is incredibly useful, and I am very pleased that you wrote it. When it comes to discussing such matters the Canadian literary/publishing community is so vague they make cryptographers look positively indiscreet.Augusthttp://www.vestige.orgnoreply@blogger.com
