Writing Challenge – Day 1

CaUj9FDWwAAu8GOI’ve seen a few of these challenges floating around and decided, why not give one a shot. Not all of these will be blogs, most will just be posted on FB and Twitter, so if you’re not following me there, get on that. Please. :-)


Day 1. One sentence summary of the first story you ever wrote: Crap, just crap.


It was a non-fantasy, very melodramatic piece about a widower college professor and him finding love again with a woman who had her own set of serious issues. It was lost to a corrupted floppy disk back in the dark ages, when we still used floppy disks, and honestly that’s a good thing. I was mortified at the time because I’d put so much time and effort into it, but I learned some valuable things from that entire experience.



Save early and often.
Save things in multiple places like a squirrel before winter.
No really, save your work.
Writing is a process, and you have to write a lot of crap before you write something that you’re happy to put your name on and share with the rest of the world.
Save.

If you want to join in on the writing challenge, please do and send me your links so I can follow along! Use the hashtag #30DWC.
