I realize that I go into pretty deep and personal issues a lot of times here, and although the things I post give everyone somewhat of a picture of how I think, I'd like to do something fun.
As an aspiring writer, the best given advise (thus far) has been to just WRITE. Anything. Everything. All the time.
Sometimes we are given assignments, other times things we see simply inspire us. And on occasion there are also fun things to write about, like.....yourself!
This was a suggestion by a teacher and I've also seen others do it:
One blog per day answering a question about yourself. It's usually an exercise for people who get stuck, and it forces them to write something each day. Since I've beaten myself up and have kept up my own promise to write daily, this won't be that difficult, but it will let people see a more "in-depth" version of me.
I have many a layer, so lets see what this unfolds.
This project started out as a 30 blogs in 30 days, but more questions were added by students and well, it came out to 38...so what I'll do is the 38 questions listed below and will also throw in 2 wild card questions that I'm sure I'll get thrown at me at some point.
These will generally come in sequence every night, unless something truly profound comes to my noggin and I just can't stop myself from writing about it. If it happens more than 5 times, I'll just make this project a whole other blog. Deal? Deal.
Here they are in order (I'll start at 38 and go upward):
1. Your work space.
2. The best part of your day.
3. Something you refuse to do.
4. Last book you read.
5. Meaning behind your blog name.
6. Talent you wish you had.
7. A photo of you without makeup.
8. Last item you purchased.
9. Something that makes you sad.

20. Last time you had to apologize to someone.
21. Something that scares you.
22. Something that really bugs you.
