all change, and more wooping!

I'm getting three poems published in Takahe. The editor called them 'deliciously grotesque', which was pretty gratifying. They'll be appearing in either issue 64 or 65.
Equally gratifyingly, if unexpectedly, the Parliamentary Library have offered me a job. I scored well enough, apparently, on the pre-interview test that they were willing to overlook my lack of a professional qualification, and invited me in for an interview anyway. Turns out that my experience working in educational publishing makes me a good fit for the position of Resources Librarian. And they've even agreed to let me work part time, three days per week. The childcare is organised: come August, Maggie will attend crèche on the same three days as her sister, and until then a wonderful friend has offered to look after her. So I start on Monday week! They actually wanted me to start next Monday but that's J's first day at Weta Digital and I thought staggered starts a better option lest too much change all at once blow our fragile little minds.
