So. I've always been awful at keeping journals, but I'm going to make an effort to update this more often than I did in previous journals. Firstly, I'm going to do some cleaning up and make this baby look polished. I'm working a few new pieces, but haven't been able to really write much this past year. I have issues with being concise, but I am working on it. I will be taking a short story class this semester, and perhaps it will involve some creative writing, which I like much better than literary analysis, at least in the writing process. I have a LOT of short stories lined up on the roster, and I am working hard, taking notes when I can, on getting them finished so I can revise if needed and send them out to get published. *fingers crossed* I appreciate those who have made it this far, and hope you'll stick with me throughout this blog journey.
