I’m reading it for the first time and I feel like I’m not getting a full appreciation for the Dorset dialect without hearing the sound of it. I found a couple videos on YouTube of PJ reading excerpts. Is there a full length audio anywhere?
What’s your worst typo on exhibition materials and/or near misses?
These are just the ones I counted on my avalanche wreckage of a desk.
I ask “how” more in the sense of design, functionality, and purpose if that makes sense. I work at a community arts nonprofit with three galleries in our building where we rotate contemporary art exhibitions by community art groups, solo artists, and others. I maintain the website and the way it was built for us, we have the currently on display page and the past exhibitions past where I move poster images and exhibition descriptions to after the shows close.
It’s stacked up to be a rather long, busy page and there are repeats of certain annual shows like youth art month in the spring and some signature shows of our own design. I’m trying to think of how to redesign or rebuild the page so it’s more functional and purposeful than what feels like a graveyard of past exhibition materials.
The page is helpful to some degree that artist submitting future exhibition proposals can see what kind of shows we’ve hosted. While I manage the website, I’m not necessarily a web designer by education and professional background so I’m a little lost here.
I had a total hysterectomy six years ago, kept my ovaries, and was diagnosed with stage 1, borderline stage 2 endo. The hysterectomy wasn’t because of just the endo but because other compounded issues. They ablated the lesions and cleared out the adhesions binding some of my organs together but weren’t able to do a full excision during the surgery. So technically I still have endo. There are other comorbid autoimmune issues I’m figuring out but delineating between that and the endo is really complicated.
Did anyone else here have a hysterectomy and experience the endo growing back? How did the symptoms manifest for you?
Summer camps are coming up at the community arts center/gallery where I work and I’ve been compiling activity sheets for the kiddos to do in their free time. I have a ton of famous art/artist coloring sheets but I’m looking to round it out with word searches, mazes, and other similar activity sheets.
Canva shockingly has a whole bunch of educational activity sheets in various themes and topics but none for art history, except for like one pop art thing I found. Anybody know where I can find some for free or have any to share?
My instinct is that it’s a bad idea but while deep in the season of being ignored, something in my brain thinks well why not cast a wide net if the recent trend has been no response?
Coming from a literary background, simultaneous submissions are a thing. I just worry more about making a bad impression with newspaper and magazine editors.
Since holding down another full time job outside of freelance reporting it’s been a minute since I’ve written a cover letter. Do I address it to the EIC? Deputy chief editor? Chief operating officer?
I definitely have other health factors that play into how my migraines have morphed, but I’m just curious if other people have noticed that with their own migraines. Related to changing to symptoms, I feel like the prodrome or build up to my migraines have shifted a lot and they feel much more extended now than they used to be. Unless I just have more self awareness of it now so I’m tracking it better?
