    Ahhh…. I’m sorry that I haven’t been able to be so active recently, and probably for the rest of the semester. I’ll definitely try to show up for word wars/guild wars, though!

    What I read (highlights): 

    Six of Crows 

    The Gurnsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

    The Montmaray Journals (series)

    All the Light We Cannot See 

    The Little Prince

    Sense and Sensibility 

    What I Wrote: 

    Before the Sunrise (short story)

    Having Loved and Lost (poem)

    A bunch of other pieces for my Advanced Writing class

    An ongoing series of fictional letters with my best friend

    Half (?) of the first act draft of my current fantasy-ish WIP

    What I learned: 

    (echoing lots of people already) My first draft doesn’t have to be perfect.

    Creative Writing isn’t going to be foremost in my life/career, and that’s okay. (I might become an editor, though…)

    Goals for 2019: 

    Write one or two short pieces a month.

    Keep going on my WIP.

    And continue the letters story with my friend? Hopefully, even though we don’t have a plan for it haha.

     

    I’m really happy to finally be able to reply to this forum @eden-anderson because life has been pretty intense, but I do remember first seeing it and thinking, hey, you should probably come up with some goals, and have some aim in your writing life. So thank you!
