Roger Zelzany wrote a book called A Night in the Lonesome October, having to do with events leading up to a Halloween on which the second full moon of the month rises. A group of iconic characters come together for a specific purpose. You see, that's when the time is right.
And now is the time that is right for me.
In 2005, I started back to school. Got my Associate's Degree and moved on to Washington State Vancouver for my Bachelor's (still in progress). On the first day of this year, I walked away from my job of 8.5 years.
Since then, I have gotten my first paying client as a web designer (Oregon Organization Development Network). That led me to get my own domain (http://www.hexagonaldesigns.com/), and start the process of getting business licenses. I am learning graphic design, my first foray into visual art. I have designed logos both for myself and for classes.
I even have a decent resume for the first time in my life, thanks to Christine Lundeen, career counselor at WSUV.
I just wish that my time was quite as dramatically perfect as a Lonesome October.
