last workshop

I love my writing class. <.g> John, the teacher, broke the rule and they did my story while I was gone. Whooo! LOL Okay, admittedly, I am curious as to what was said. Nghi said they had this fairly big debate about if Roger and Chris ended up sleeping together that night or not. <.g> Okay, personally, I don't think anything happened that night. Maybe after the war, who knows. But I left it really, really open and a lot of people complained, because they wanted to know. LOL Apparently he started out the discussion by pointing out that I wasn't there, so they could talk about how much they hated it....gee, thanks. <.g> But really, most of the comments were really positive. One didn't say anything, and one had some quibbles but liked some of it. And wow, my teacher really liked it. Or likes my writing, at any rate. I got comments such as, "Your sense of rhythm between dialogue and exposition is admirable," and "This is such solid, sane writing that mostly all I want to do is get out of your way and let you run." He also thinks that I have another novel idea out of this, plus I should keep writing in general. It makes me happy to read things like that...I have such a low opinion of my own writing skills that sometimes I feel bad for allowing it among the masses. So his comments, and the rest of the classes's, too, made me less guilty for inflicting it on them. LOL Of course, it also made me want to work on my two stories-in-progress, but I sadly can't really do that tonight. <.g> Well, maybe if I get to page six tonight...I'm on page five now. Yay!
