I have this stupid feeling that I'm cheating on poetry lol. And it seems like it's hard to be excited and energetic about more than one project at a time. I think it's good that you set aside a chunk of time on one day. I think I might do that too. Pick a day and devote it to fiction or something. I was going to try to write a little fiction every day or not at all so thanks for sharing your idea.JayTeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02923700657540655227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1396226836483140641.post-43897558073223183892009-08-22T18:50:53.854-07:002009-08-22T18:50:53.854-07:00I'm actually a poet, so devoting any time to w...I'm actually a poet, so devoting any time to work on fiction/other weird projects is really hard for me. Hopefully I'll be able to stick to this kind of schedule.<br /><br />Yes! People are SO friendly. Have already attended one Wine&Cheese party, and was invited to another party this afternoon that I missed (migrainy afternoon). Living in the South is wonderful!Rachel M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09515735650209757658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1396226836483140641.post-68630467449019448492009-08-22T15:25:24.646-07:002009-08-22T15:25:24.646-07:00Sounds like you've had a busy first week.

I am in the process of mapping out a writing schedule for myself.<br /><br />How do you like the people in your program so far? Have you all socialized much?Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02608421232179032744noreply@blogger.com
