January 25-31

Anytime I see the word “writing” in a class, I’m immediately compelled to take it. From that point, it automatically gets eliminated from candidacy if “writing” is preceded or followed by “technical”. Anything remotely creative: I’m there. Hence my taking this class. I hope I really polish my voice on the internet. I have a strong personality to bring to the table (a blessing and a curse), but I also have trouble focusing and coming up with topics. The focusing issue is just one I’m going to have to suck it up and deal with, but I’m hoping there might be some techniques of idea-generation that I haven’t stumbled across yet. Basically, I come up with ONE GREAT IDEA and think it’s the best ever and it turns out it’s usually good enough for maybe one blog post. Two if I’m lucky. Here’s hoping this class changes that. J
