Can't Win Them All

Spent an entire day last week applying for a job that looked absolutely perfect for me. Working part-time as a Writing Facilitator for The Ministry of Stories in London. For anyone that has applied for a job that they really want you'll understand the amount of work that goes into it. I knew that the competition would be fierce as jobs like these are as rare as hens teeth, but I thought with my background and experience that I stood a very good chance. 

It was not to be. Yesterday I received a standard email saying I'd not been selected for interview and due to the high number of applications they couldn't give feedback. I had a little cuddle with my cat, Bibs, and felt a bit sorry for myself. 

As my previous and wonderful agent, Laura West would say, 'Onwards!'.
