PSA: Dracula: The Danse Macabre creator Gabriel Urbina is teaching a set of online classes in the new year! 👨‍🏫

First, he's doing a new round of his classic online workshop Writing Stories For Sound! It's the three-hour interactive crash course through how he thinks about stories that are told entirely through audio - what their unique strengths and weaknesses are, what makes for a great audio experience, how to tell stories that make audiences lean forward. 🎙️

He's teaching the workshop two times - those are on February 2nd at 2:00 PM Eastern and on February 4th at 7:00 PM Eastern!

But wait, there's more! Because Gabriel is also offering his first ever Masterclass Edition of his online writing workshop, and it's a doozy! 📚

Gabriel is going to write the script for the pilot for a new audio fiction series in just six weeks, and he wants you to come along and write a script of your own! In this six week class, he will break down everything he knows about going from idea to full script, and he'll give you a series of writing assignments that turn the mountain of writing a script into a manageable climb! Best of all, he'll do everything he asks his students to do, so you'll get the inside look at how an Urbina story takes shape and comes together! 🛠️

The Masterclass is a six-week course, with sessions on Wednesday nights at 8:00 PM, starting on February 5th!

If you've been struggling to get your audio fiction ideas down on paper - or if you need a great gift for the audio fiction lover in your life for the holidays - don't miss out on the chance to go on a writing adventure with Gabriel! ✍️

sits here. my mood has been swinging back and forth like a pendulum lately

I applied to a $10k scholarship and won it.

On the school’s webpage for available scholarships, it lists the winners each season. My name is currently listed, with one other person, under the list of summer winners.

The very same webpage says “two scholarships will be awarded per class per year.” There are two classes starting in summer. There should be four names listed on that webpage right now. In spring, there were only three names listed. That’s $30,000 in unclaimed money so far this year.

This reminds me of an old story I heard once about a Mexican man who misread a scholarship’s eligibility requirements-- it was supposed to be for LatinA students. But he still won the scholarship, because he was the only one who applied.

Y’all. I get if maybe the application process is intimidating. Maybe you don’t want to do all that work and take the risk that you get no reward for it. But consider: how many other people also decided it was too intimidating, did not apply, and therefore the competition to win is actually dramatically lower than you think?

I’m grateful for the scholarship. I’m grateful that I apparently had no competition. But two more students could have also gotten a significant financial gift, if only they had applied.

Write that essay.

might legitimately move in with my boyfriend's parents next year and honestly... doing stuff like this makes you realize that many of the reddit-esque freakouts about "weird" stuff in relationships is blown out of proportion.

oop its uni ranking time again

the time of the year when I remember that since age 14 ive basically spent my life in educational institutions that have been at some point ranked #1 on some of these lists. ugh. bleh. nothing intelligent to say just now, I just always need to remember the ways this limits or biases my experience in addition to the ways it broadens it. someday I will finally write the big article that's been brewing in my brain about the meritocracy fallacy.

Not really a headcanon but I like the idea that Crabblesnitch was a male cheerleader when he was a student. If cheerleading was good enough for George W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, and Franklin D. Roosevelt, then it was good enough for him. At least it'd put his gymnastics skills to good use

seeing that my financial aid for the upcoming Fall semester will just barely cover tuition due to the (unreasonable annual) tuition increase.... I feel like stabbing actually
