Welcome. (I couldn't think of anything clever)

Welcome to my new blog, well my only active blog at least.

My life's main ambition is to be a writer. Plain and simple. I can look back throughout my life and see that this is what I was meant to do. There have been times in my life in which I have become discouraged, sidetracked, and talked out of taking this path, but in all honesty, when I picture how I want to spent the rest of my working years of my life, I can think of no other profession that would bring me as much joy as stringing together decorative or informational strings of sentences. I know most people would find the idea rather drab and boring, to sit in front of a computer all day, but I could not think of a better career.

At the moment, I may not have the most writing experience, and I am waiting till fall to go back to school to earn degrees in creative writing, but I have created this blog to keep me motivated in my writing. I have said for years that I wanted to be a writer, but when asked for writing samples, I have not had anything to refer to, most of my stories are scattered in various places, posted on random websites, stored on lost flash drives. This blog will serve as my writing portfolio. My goal is to post at least one short story on this blog every other week, to keep me motivated, and to sharpen my writing abilities.

I hope you enjoy my stories as much as I enjoy writing them. Feel free to leave comments or critiques on any post, or if you have any questions for me.

Thank you for reading.

Welcome.
