Step Two

So, yesterday I took another step towards my writing career and set things in motion to audit a fiction writing class this fall. As employee of the university, we are entitled to audit one class per semester, fees and tution waved. Had I known four years ago, I'd probably have taken more advantage of the program.

I had to submit a sample of my writing to get special permisson to take the advanced course. Now, most people have a piece or two for such situations, however, I just have my stories, nothing I feel is really all that complete. So, I decided to browse my posts and see if there was something I liked enough to either finish or feel was finished enough. To my surprise I found many pieces that I not only could I use, but how much I enjoyed so many of the entires. There were a few that I couldn't believe I had written.

After my afternoon reading session I began to feel more confident in my decision to step things up and go for it, at least a little. Maybe I am having a some delusion of granduer, or inflated self worth, but in actuality I am just not beating myself down and giving myself a little credit, for once.

Crappy entry, but I am wiped.
