They had an essay contest where they wanted people to talk about what Detour means to them, since this is their tenth year.  I thought, “Oh hey let me write a thing, because I really love Detour,” I’ve been going since year one and all.  

So I wrote a thing.

And then I won a thing.

Yeah my essay won Anime Detour’s contest.

Excuse me because I can’t quite comprehend how this writing thing suddenly continues to go well like I mean-

It’s going to be in the program books and maybe on the website, which I’m taking as exposure if I can get my writing blog mentioned on it.  Perfect exposure to 5500 attendees, staff, guess, perfect exposure since, you know, need to get myself out there because of this whole book thing.  

Hey there, karma, how are you?  I guess since last year was such a mess of things you’ve decided to make this year better?
