It's starting to ease off now - but I'm sleeping all the time. weird.<BR/><BR/>I took some lit classes last year and the year before and it was so hard. There is just so much to read! Well done on getting the degree! I'd never get anything done if I did an OU course. You must be super determined. <BR/><BR/>Yeah, I don't have any room under my bed because of junk and mess- all my writing is in boxes and old files in cubourds. lol.<BR/><BR/>I'm gonna have a sit down later (when my head clears) and read your short story. <BR/>Talk soon<BR/>LxSwerdnichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01267728013234163425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236562839655163689.post-43981157528577858482009-01-09T14:06:00.000+00:002009-01-09T14:06:00.000+00:00Hi there,Thank you for adding me to your list and ...Hi there,<BR/>Thank you for adding me to your list and following my blog. I've been reading some of your posts and you sound just like me a few years ago! I did an OU EngLit degree a few years ago and disapline is the hardest thing.

And yes my head really doesn't feel like it belongs to me.<BR/><BR/>I'll say this now though - don't get your hopes up, pml. I'm new to blogging and I tend to moan quite a bit. lol<BR/><BR/>I like your post-it-note idea. I've never done new years resolutions because they just seemed pointless. Nobody ever seems to keep them and I wonder why new year is the only time people think to better their lives? <BR/><BR/>I wonder what my unlived life could be? I'll have to have a go.<BR/><BR/>As for Uni - They havn't had a specific section entitled 'editing'. To be honest the emphasis has been on getting the basic grounding of consructing stories (fiction and non-fiction)lectures on narrative structures and looking at the work of others. But i suspect the skill has been seeped in over the course without us knowing - through drafting and redrafting again and again. And through workshopping and chopping up classmates work and giving feedback. <BR/>Its a very all round course - Caters for all tastes and styles. One guy writes only in Glaswegian dialect. one class is specificly 'writing for children'. <BR/><BR/>ok that was longer than I imagined.<BR/><BR/>thanks again. And all the best for 2009 also!<BR/>LxSwerdnichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01267728013234163425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236562839655163689.post-39082464214534230642009-01-07T22:03:00.000+00:002009-01-07T22:03:00.000+00:00much symptathy flowing (from a safe distance) thro...much symptathy flowing (from a safe distance) through the webosphere. Genuine sympathy because if its the virus i had at Xmas it will feel like your head was replaced in the night.<BR/><BR/>thank you for becoming a follower. i shall do the same now as im desperately jealous of your studies and the confidence and talent it must take to complete them so i know ill find your blog both entertaining and motivating. <BR/><BR/>sorry to hear of your parents health last year. best wishes for all in '09<BR/><BR/>(do they teach you how to edit)Get The Measurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08157028997221373410noreply@blogger.com
