New Adventures

I hit the "New Post" button wanting to come in and post something cool today since I haven't really posted much lately.  Not much happening around my neck of the woods.

A New Adventure..
I've been trying my hand at writing short stories...Wow, I just never realized how difficult this can be.
With many stories going on in my head, one would think I could just write them down..Not happening!
Writing should be easy right?  and it is for some people.  I have a friend (Terri) that can whip out a story in no time, and I hate her! (jk)  Terri has been a wonderful help with editing my story. Giving awesome tips, and giving me that little push that I need.   My Mom also is excited about my need to write. She said she has books on writing, and when she gets back from their winter home she will dig out all the books she has. Back then, she had to send off for a writing course. Then send her story in..and wait for the return mail to see her results.   Now, of course we have the Internet.  Sweet!

So now, I'm looking into an online beginners course.  A refresher course in Grammar probably wouldn't hurt, and Thank God for spell checker!
This new adventure of mine might not even go anywhere, but I'm definitely having fun. And it's great exercise for the brain.

Tips on writing welcomed!
(Big Hugs to Mom, and Terri..You are both a big inspiration to me)

   Have a Great Day!
