today was...blah. i'm still pretty drained from the SATs this past saturday - i think (and hope) i did well. i wrote about the great gatsby for my essay heehee (it's definitely one of the best school books i've read, if not the best, and it has somewhat motivated me to write - or at least sort of given me a bit of inspiration, or started chasing down my elusive muse). i haven't gotten to work on chapter 4 because of that...but i will. soon. promise. especially now that i finished SAT class lol.
so i'm in a good mood, and feeling very artsy...lol. i did like no homework tonight lol. maybe i'll get to reading this piece about the great gatsby for english soon, or i'll just do it at lunch tomorrow.
i have a question for my flist. you don't HAVE to answer, i'm just debating something and i would love another view or two to weigh in:
i am writing. i love writing. i haven't really found my muse very consistent, though. i've been playing with the idea of eventually publishing something i've written, be it a book of poetry or short stories or a novel. i don't really plan on making writing my profession, but maybe on the side, or just so i can have it out there. i doubt i have enough for any of those as of late, but that doesn't bother me too much. i am in the middle of a chaptered fictional story that could potentially be novel material, though i'm not sure if it'll get there for various reasons. a few days ago i realized that if i DO plan on publishing, maybe my writing (minus fanfic) shouldn't be posted online, just because it would be a bit useless to have what's online for the world to see for free be published and cost people money...
now here's where your opinions/comments would be SO appreciated. i have NO IDEA if i'm just being paranoid about this, and i don't know if i should keep posting chapters and short pieces on here if i ever do get published. so, my lovely flist, what do you think about my dillema? am i just nuts? does my worry have any base in reality? share any thoughts with me, please. and thank you in advance. ^_^
and now i'm off to try and start teaching mysef how to play guitar. :)
