baronessekat | Time to get off my butt

The Kingdom of AEthelmearc has new heirs. The announcement has been what I've been waiting for to actually sit down and write my letter of intent to be concidered for the next Sylvan Signet.

I hold the scribal community quite dear and have worked many years with it and for it.

Other than having to actually renew my membership (which will be done Thursday when I get paid), I need to make sure my SCA resume is up to date, tweeked and stuff.

I'm putting it here so that those in the know and stuff can offer me advice and the like for improving it.

Constructive criticism would be much appreciated.

Mundane contact information that I won't post on LJ

I also have to write the letter of intent. This I am assuming is just like a cover letter for a mundane resume.

This week I have to do the calligraphy for a scroll going to war practice. I wish I could go to War Practice as there is a rather important Millrind Meeting, not to mention that I'd rather like to present the letters of intent in person to those that need them.

But my van's having issues with the breaks, needs at leat a new tire and another tire is making weird sqeeeeee sounds at times. I need to call the shop this week and get an appointment to get it in.

Small steps that lead to bigger steps.
