I sometimes fancy myself a bit of a writer. But, the problem is that I have so many brilliant writer friends that I get intimidated by their thoughtfulness or wit or insight or bravery sharing themselves.
Despite that, this year, I'm learning to write. I keep getting offers to write publicly. Scary! But, so far I've been taking the offers because there's nothing like trial by fire to speed up the learning, right?
There's still the
Young Professionals blog I'm supposed to be updating every week about Social Media. (My latest entry is about
Curating the News!) Now, I've also been asked to blog on an Arts Blog on the Rockford Register Star website and also to semi-regularly write an arts column for the other newspaper in town. Neither has started yet, so it's entirely possible they won't happen, but I hope they do.
I'm looking forward to getting writing some more. The longer I'm out of the school, the more I feel my writing slipping from me...along with all the other amazing stuff I packed into my head at an obscene amount of money per credit. So, it's time to write more... and learn.
