Time Soars

Has it really been a year already?

That would seem a ridiculous prospect, if not for everything that has happened. My desire to break into this industry has only intensified since then. I awake in the mornings with thoughts of game development grandeur and fall asleep to tomorrow's aspirations. I continue to strive to learn as much as there is to learn here on the outside.

My excitement has grown even more recently. I feel as if my debut is just around the corner. I'm ready now. Ready to take that entry-level step.

I'll probably look back next year on such words and see the naivety dripping off of them, as we are apt to do after a year's worth of personal growth. But I suppose that's the nature of growing older.

In March, I'm going to the Game Developers Conference as a Conference Associate once again. This time I return wiser and ready. My goal is to find an entry-level position or internship inside of the industry proper.

I'm hoping for entry-level production position, but those are rare enough as it is even without the current economic downturn. I'm more than willing to take a QA job or something in customer service. I'd prefer something relating to MMOs, but I'm not burning my bridges. At this point, I just need to break in and start showing people what I'm made of.

So there we are. One year down, with many on the horizon.

Happy Birthday blog.
Happy Birthday me.
