So You Want to Be a Writer.........       

Remember to write every day.  This is the single most important element to becoming a successful writer.  

You all did great this past week in the class.  I cannot tell you how impressed I am with the writing I heard in class.  You are all extremely talented and can go far in your writing professions.  I look forward to hearing your character profiles in class next week. 

Also, please bring in any writing on which you are currently working.  See you Wednesday.
