Connie's Corner

May 8th - My righting is getting bedder.

When I wrote that title it felt like my sinuses were plugged, and it reminded me of someone on tv but I can't think who .

I've always liked to write, letters, newsletters, essays, but I don't think I ever wrote a fictional story until I found writing. com. Since I've always liked a challenge and never been one to step away, the Cramp prompts fascinated me. The first fictional story I ever wrote was right here in response to a prompt about "a lost ring". It surprised me how quickly I could make up a story, having never tried before . But, then, I came back down to earth when my reviews came in . I'm happy to say they did not thwart my enthusiasm .

I hope my "righting has gotten bedder" and I think it has, although I know I will never be another Ernest Hemingway . I like trying to stretch myself, attempting new things, and as others have said, the friends I have found here are most important.

I say, good or bad, continue to write (right) as long as it is enjoyable. Practice may not make perfect, but it can't hurt!

until next time....c
