On Writing

 I've always enjoyed writing, but one of the first times that I can recall being aware of my love for writing was during my homeschool-years. At the time, part of my English curriculum was something called Wordsmith Apprentice. Among other activities, this workbook placed you in the role of a journalist. I remember thoroughly enjoying learning how you write a hook in your first paragraph, and what sort of information you needed to display in the first few paragraphs. All sorts of interesting stuff about print journalism that I guess is kind of useless now, but you get the picture. Those experiences as a young pre-adolescent helped shape the person I am today.

Fast forward a decade or so, and I still love writing. But I've fallen out of practice. Especially with my undergraduate days over, my skills are going to become even less polished if I don't start practicing. So, this blog will serve that purpose. This is where I'll be able to flesh out all of my musings or concerns. Hopefully some of it will be mildly interesting.
