Writing Class – Class #2
I had signed up for a short stories class through Fairfax community education because I wanted to get back into creative writing. It’s been many, many years since I’ve come up with an original piece of fiction, and I miss that part of myself.
Tonight I made it to the second class, and the first thing we did was a warm-up writing assignment. I wrote and wrote and wrote. It seemed so easy to just start writing again. And yet it still seemed foreign.
The class is quite big. There are fourteen people including the instructor. This means that each week we can’t workshop everyone’s work. In fact, we can only get through about four people’s work each week. That’s too bad, but the interaction in class during the work shop seemed quite lively. I look forward to work shopping my work, hopefully next week.
