Wow... I can't believe I've missed two of these entries. Well I guess I'll just continue the "journal" count with where it's supposed to be; journal 5. Anyways!
Man, and I thought creative non-fiction was hard. I’ve spoken in my first journal entry about how I felt out of my comfort zone in this class, but then after a few classes I more or less acclimated to the environment; or so I thought. Having to write a fiction piece I found myself once again knocked on my ass. Not so say that the reading did not help me out with getting started, but keeping the momentum going as far as writing is concerned was very difficult. I kept finding myself thinking, “Ok… what do I want to happen next…” After extensive thought I would type something down, only to reread it, shortly followed by deleting what I had just typed and cursing at myself for writing something so dumb. Even the next “chapter” I’m writing seems to be just as hard as the first. I’ll probably find my niche right before we move onto the next unit. HA!
