Another missed opportunity

Yesterday I received an e-mail from the editor of the publication that's publishing my story. She wanted to know if I'd be interested in taking on a project. The project consisted of writing 5 mini profiles for their upcoming "Best Of" issue. As much as I'd love the opportunity to get more writing experience, I really don't have time right now (maybe I could've written like two). They were willing to pay me for it too!

The reason I couldn't do it was because of my stupid Math/Intermediate Algebra class, which has tried to take over my brain, but hasn't succeeded. :( If I ever come back in another life, it'll probably be as a mathematician!

* Side note: Today I received a 2nd e-mail from the editor stating that she was anxious, so she ended up giving the project to someone else. Whew!! That's a load off my back. Either they really like me or they just need some new "blood" (i.e. writers).
