Let's be Honest...

"It is discouraging how many people are shocked by honesty and how few by deceit."
~Noel Coward 

The thought of being brutally honest about oneself terrifies most people, myself included. Sure, we can be brutally honest when we are talking about someone else, but ourselves?

Well, honesty is the best policy right? So let me start off by being brutally honest about myself. I suck at blogging. I don't know what it is about putting words in a text box and putting them on some URL that just won't click with me. So this is my stab at a blog that I actually intend to follow through with. Pardon me if it is awful at first, I'm hoping that this is something that I will get the hang of eventually.

I am a writer. I mean obviously, I am writing a blog. However my medium is paper and pencil and usually the content is fiction (so you can see where I might run into some problems here). I've been writing since the fifth grade and I am currently at school studying Professional Writing. It is my dream to have one of my novels published and to work in a publishing/editing company.

I am currently working on two major projects. One is my first serious novel which is currently in the editing/revising stage. I am tearing apart everything and rebuilding it to make it better. The other is a screenplay that a group here at school is going to film. Both are fantasy based because to be quite honest, fantasy is easier to write. You can do absolutely anything and aren't bound by the laws of the world in which we live now. In comparison, real life can be kind of boring.

There isn't much else about me that I find interesting but maybe as I progress something might pop up. I can only ask for patience and hope that this gets easier. My name might not be memorable through the blogs but someday it will be right up there with the best.
