I've just received my mark for the OU Creative Writing course A215, and am thrilled to announce that I received a DISTINCTION!!
Only 6% of the course finishers acheived that grade (91 out of 1444) so I am very very pleased indeed.It's one hell of a boost to my writing confidence, and seeing as I'm full of bouncy new motivation for the WIP it will inspire me to bang that word count up quite considerably.
My voice and use of language were classified as "excellent", which is especially useful to me as I've never been fully confident in my voice, and have a tendency to over-write.
If only I could have a drink to celebrate (but that's a whole other lot of good news .... ;--) )
*************************************
Good news is abounding all over the place. Bestest best friend in the world has just got engaged, and I couldn't be happier for them. And it means I'll get to go to another wedding, one where I get to watch it all unfold before me rather than being slap bang in the middle of things, like I was at the most recent wedding I attended (i.e. mine).
But the universe is nothing if not balanced, hence my shocking unpreparedness for Christmas, and the husband's perforated ear-drum. Ah well, Christmas is only one day, and ear drums heal (I'll just have to shout at him in the other one....)

Oooh congratulations. That's brilliant news about your OU course. The top 6%. You swot! Seriously though, I can see why you're chuffed.
Not drinking 'eh...hmmmm... *smiles*
Yay yay yay!!! Just saw your post on the Novel Racers, and came over here in case there were any more details about the 'whole other lot of good news' (but I think I've got the gist!). Very very well done - on both counts!
Thanks you, Cally & Zinnia.
It's a wee bit early for me to be announcing the "other news", but I can't seem to keep it to myself and so I'm dropping hints left right and centre ~ luckily most people are picking up on it.
I'm very happy on both counts!
:-)
I picked it up right away but will stay quiet until given leave to jump up and down and have the drink that you can't have.
Congrats on distinction. I can't even get on course as I've twice filled our form incorrectly. Not much hope there then :(
Brilliant news!!
Hope you're still not drinking:-)

Still so pleased for you :-)
