worm holes, leviathans and scarrons

Farscape has become one of my favorite tv shows. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it - if you enjoy an imaginative plot set on and around distant planets, with various alien life forms and living ships. The characters are wonderful and feel like friends after watching it fo so long. The story line goes like this. John Crighton takes a space ship for a test flight, gets sucked into a worm hole and ends up in a distant part of the universe, on a living ship - a leviathan - with several different species, including a luxon, a delvian, hynerian and sebatian. They become his friends and the whole show is about their travels, the different planets they see, the friends and enemies they make. It's incredibly creative. The different plots, cultures, characters, worlds are incredible. Makes me wish I could come up with something like that. I would love to have that imagination and creativity to be able to write that kind of story.

I would love to be a writer - like a real writer. One of my other tv show "friends" is Carrie Bradshaw, who writes a column called "Sex and the City". Having a job like that would be pretty sweet. I enjoy writing, and to actually have it in a column or something, where people actually read it, and to really get paid for it - that would rock. Totally and completely. But how does one get there? How do I get from writing personal blogs that friends and family read, to writing articles or columns that are read by readers everywhere? I suppose a blog like this is a start - but how do I get from here to there?? Can I be a "Carrie Bradshaw" - well, preferrably my own person, my own character and my own "column", but you know what I mean.

In other news, I have a job interview this afternoon at Jacob Connexion in the Outlet Mall here. And another one at The Children's Place on Friday. I applied for about 15 jobs yesterday, and had two call backs from them by the end of the day. Kinda cool. Hopefully something will come from it soon. I do need an income pretty quickly here...
