Actually, it's much harder to believe that so many things happen within three months at all. I didn't know what to expect from my Imaginative Writing Class when I first walked through the doors late August. I figured that if I write and write and write, like I always do, I can get the good grade. As I have discovered, this class is so much more than that. It's so much more than just picking up the pen and writing words on a page.
Writing is about peeling layers.
One can go right at it and dig holes, but my process was more subtle. I didn't expect to peel these layers. My intentions weren't to peel any at all. Yet, for the first time, I found out it was much harder to peel my own skin for words, than anything else, especially in a classroom setting. It wasn't like this before.
