Getting started

A little more than a year ago, I decided that I could no longer delay returning to school. I have spent years trying to decide what I wanted to study. I decided to accept my fate and go into teaching, which meant a lot of English classes on my way to the teaching college.
Like most things in my life, things didn't go as planned. I took three classes, which changed my course completely. I am now one of the many English majors in this world, who hopes one day to have a job teaching college. While that seems like a simple thing, the one thing I discovered, which I am continually struggling with, is writing.

I have been a journalist for 14 years, but I never really considered myself to be a writer until about 8 months ago. Crazy, right? So tonight, I decided that I need to really do something about this writing thing and I decided to start a blog.

I don't have plans to be political or offer insightful commentary. I just plan on exploring writing in as many forms as I can muster. I figure that no one will be reading this, but I can still feel like I am sharing my writing with the world. Wish me luck.
