Week 8 Progress

Looking Back:

I definitely have started to get a better routine in for completing assignments in a timely fashion.  I'm fairly satisfied with my progress so far.  The class assignments I enjoy so far are the EC Microfictions.  I do like the storytelling assignments as well, but since those are larger assignments and require more writing and work to be done, it does come with more stress.  I also know that more people will view the stories, so it puts some pressure on what I write, knowing that it will be scrutinized and possibly judged.  The revision process is also beneficial and fun for me, because I can take all my hard work and make it even better.  Sometimes, I'm even surprisingly pleased with how well I've done with a particular story. 

Looking Forward:

Something that I want to try in my writing, and blog posts in general, is putting more of a personal touch on the stories and posts to make it more interesting.  Aside from that and completing assignments on time, I think my progress has been good so far, but I can see that my site and writing both have a lot of potential to be even better.
