I'm biting the bullet and dealing with my crippling shyness in the scariest way possible.

I've just booked a flight to Zante, Greece for the 2nd May 2008. I'm going on my own, never been to Zante in my life, going to find an apartment and a bar job when i get over there and i better meet some people and make some friends because my flight home isnt until 14 October.

nothing to lose and everything to gain, right?

dallas

Holy **** man! That's such a cool idea. Don't just simply test the water... dive in the ****ing deep end and see what happens!

You're gonna come back a new person, I bet you. Good luck!

yea nothing to lose. Hope all goes well.

Good luck mate. I tried to do the same but only moved 300 miles away from my home town. Still have to deal with day to day stuff and its difficult but it will give you a new perspective on things. Hope you find your swimming legs!

You're really brave I thought about doing something like that myself, since a friend of mine went to London to work for 5 months, but I get really anxious just trying to plan something like that

Pat on the back, man! Fantastic! Good luck - you'll love it, I bet!

My new original fiction: Palantis
An all-anthropomorphic world. Urban(ish) fantasy with a leaning either to adventure or to young adult.

Shamanics
Four genteel but adventurous academics visit a rainforest tribe in the hope of studying their medicine, but become entangled in a power struggle between leader and shaman in which they are largely irrelevant. All anthropomorphic cast.

Reviews appreciated; if you want a reciprocal review tell me what you want reviewed and I'll do it.

Oh. Gosh. So it is. I think a newbie's been digging down into the really old threads again :P Ah well, we've all done it.
