Isn't it interesting how both this semester and last semester, as soon as I put in my proposed schedule for updating the blog, I become too busy to update at all? I suppose that's irony for you.
Any-whey, I do want to thank those of you that went to the trouble of reading and then commenting on the post with my story. It's always nice to know that as a writer you get your point across.
And that's my point. I'm taking my first of three classes with Technical Writing in the name. Since that's what I want to do, I should be enjoying it. And I am. But I also really liked writing my little shoe story. It was short, fun, and I got to make a point. I chose the topic and length (it had to be 500 words for the assignment, but it's well over that).
I guess what I'm saying is that I liked the challenge of writing something fictional. I'm not sure when I'll be able to write fiction, if I write professionally (as Dad warned me about). And, as it is, I wouldn't have written that short story if wasn't for class. I'm going to try to write another short story during the course of this semester. Just for fun. I want to see if I can do it, when it isn't an assignment. I may never get to it and that's okay too (there are a lot of assignments this semester). Anyone want to see a particular topic or genre?

I'd like to know how you both are doing in school, work, and at church. We know you are both working very hard, and it would be nice to know about your every day victories.
