Welcome

Hello world, welcome to my tiny, invisible corner. I am an aspiring writer / creative person that currently works a thoroughly uninspiring job in which I sit in an office all day and deal with the inane demands of my boss. I’d quit except as it happens they pay me pretty well, and unfortunately I finished school a few years ago with an insane amount of student loan debt. Last November, in the throes of deep despair about my life, I began the process of writing a novel, which happened to coincide with National Novel Writing Month. This happy alignment gave me some real goals and in December I finished a first draft of that novel. Now, it is nowhere close to ready for anything but the process of writing, and importantly writing EVERY DAY was very cathartic for me. It's something I want to pick up again and reinforce, even if I won't always have the same amount of time to dedicate to my daily writing as I did a few months ago. So this is going to be my dedicated space to writing. I am going to try to write something every day, and it will probably vary widely in length and style. Ideally there will be some stories, creative pieces utilizing different formats, and sometimes more blogish entries like today. I hope to continue pushing myself and provide an outlet where some of my work gets an “audience.” So world, welcome. I am happy to see you here today. Watch me stumble.
