I have about a month to go before my class starts. I need to do timed writing practice sessions before I show up to try and learn to write and write well. I have been told that I write well, but have always spurned or ignored what I had been told. I have wanted to write since I read A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway back when I was 26, so over half a lifetime ago with no real follow up. I have taken only a few writing courses over the years. We will see what we can do in a classroom environment. I am looking forward to having Theo Nestor and Scott Driscoll for teachers. I should write this up on MS Word first.

I think the only think I do well is genealogy. I have worked on my family tree for most of my adult life. I have done family trees for people and have even earned a little money doing that. I have had charts made, done DNA tests, joined lineage societies, broken through brick walls, and delighted in the activity itself.
