Back to school

First day of my last year as an undergraduate. This semester I'm tackling (not just taking) Advanced Creative Writing and Writing Major Projects. Pretty heavy load. I love a good challenge though, and I am ready to write. It's funny(not literally) how university instructors just don't understand life. I mean, we have to eat and sleep and work, yet they don't give us time to even breathe! My assignment for this week is to read a book. In one week. In addition to writing a five page draft(worked on until I can't possibly get it any better), two 10-minute writing exercises and a prospectus (which requires library research and a well-thought out topic for my book, a chapter-by-chapter synopsis, audience determination, and finely-tuned focus.) Yikes!

A great one to procrastinate, I volunteered to bring my draft to class next Tuesday. Two pages are started. Tomorrow the first draft will be finished. Polishing will happen after that. I don't know when I will do the prospectus, but I will do it.
