So the more I write, and the more I read other people's writing and hear other people's opinions, the more I realize how subjective it all is. I mean, there is obviously a line between what is GOOD and what is BAD, but since there are so many different writing styles and genres, that line gets blurred extremely often. There are some amazing writers in my class, but every one of them has a distinct style and while it may be mine, it may not be someone else's cup of tea. It's a lot to think about...
I've also realized that maybe fiction isn't what I should be aiming for-- I feel so much more at home when I'm writing about my own experiences, or rather, a more nonfiction approach. I've always tried to infuse those kind of things into the fiction I write, but I've almost never felt 100% satisfied with my fiction. I don't know ... I guess it's just something I have to think about a little more.
In other news, basketball tonight!! Yay ... I'm excited. I've been listening to Remember the Name all day ... haha I'm such a nerd. ANYWAYS. My game plan for the time being is: work out, shower, get dressed, go to Subway, go to the JACC. And somewhere in between that, read more of Tom Sawyer. Etc. Alrightly ... I'm off. :)
