I have been enjoying my Creative Writing course muchly. It has gotten me writing again. I spend more time thinking about what to write and am at liberty to write creatively more often.
There are challenges though. There are a couple of projects for this class that I am searching for inspiration for, or at least an idea. I will speak more of these projects as the due date for them approaches. The one I have a really big list of ideas on what to do for it and am excited to explore and ponder each idea, crossing them off one by one til I'm happy with one.
As we are soon moving into the short story section of our course I have begun writing down some ideas that have been floating in my mind for quite some time. I am hoping to develop some of these ideas more extensively and create something beautiful. Or bland, plain, exciting, con ganas. We'll see.
My biggest challenge with the writing process right now is more to do with my History papers. As there is one that is due in about 4 weeks I have been taking notes extensively. Getting past that point I'm finding is a major challenge as most of the time available for me to write in is during my son's bath, bottle feeding and bed time. This is a major issue as I share my office with his bedroom and we currently no other more convenient and better serving option. With my wife and son going away for Thanksgiving (me get a holiday off at work. Ya right! The joys of being irreplaceable) I will have several days of uninterrupted work time. YA!!!! I'm hoping to knock off a rough draft during those days so I can spend time revising and note taking for the second term paper.
Paper #1: Sino-Tibetan Relations During Late Imperial China
Paper #2: Was the Mormon Religion a Product of its Time?
