Five things

hawkwing_lb1. I have started writing proposals for nonfiction articles. I have no idea how to do this for commercial or genre markets, and with my (lack of) track record this might be as fruitful as tilting at windmills, but I've started.
If any of you guys have helpful tips, please don't be shy about sharing them, because -
- point two:
2. This country is, er, doomed. Not the exciting kind of BOOM VOLCANO RIOTS APOCALYPSE doom, which is at least over quickly, but the grim kind of grey projected record emigration/joblessness doom. So it would be nice if I could start earning something towards stockpiling tinned beans and paying for my over-the-counter painkillers.
It's an apocalysp. Because we can't even pronounce our apocalypses right.
3. Small bit of happy news: by this time tomorrow, I will actually have the piece of parchment proving I am, indeed, B.A. (Hons). (I took a first! This is a tiny thing to be proud of, since god knows a first in ancient history is not going to do me that much good in the medium-term.)
Expect ridiculous engowned pictures.
4. Writing up anthropology notes is enough to make me suspect it might be possible to die of boredom.
5. There is no fifth thing. Except for doooom.
