Today's the day of the Beginning's Blogfest , L. G. Keltner 's first blogfest! I love the idea for this one, and knew what I was going to write about straight away. I want to write about the beginning of my writing journey. A year ago, I had no direction. I had no blog, I didn't write, all I did was work and play games. I had no motivation because I didn't know what I wanted to do. I had wanted to be a teacher, but after two failed PGCE interviews I was losing faith in the idea - maybe teaching wasn't what I was supposed to be doing. Then, last January, an idea struck me, seemingly out of nowhere. What if I tried to get into Journalism? I was good at writing, spelling, and editing, and I thought I would enjoy it.

ReplyDeleteAh, the soap opera of mythology. I really like your topic this month!
ReplyDeleteI have some beef with that Cupid.
ReplyDeleteGlad Dionysus didn't glamourise alcohol too much, unless such behaviour was admirable back then!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is, I'm glad I'm not Greek god and subject to one. :)
ReplyDeleteThey were a very dramatic bunch weren't they. So sad for her...

ReplyDeleteStopping by from the A to Z Challenge - curious to see what you focus on for the rest of the letters!
