I'm taking a writing class. It's a required class, so that I can enroll at OSU in the winter as a sophomore. It's not a hard class, challenging for me personally - yes - but only in that it is bringing clearly to the fore front that I have appalling study habits! I tend to leave the writing part until the very last minute. I read what I need to read, research what I need to research, then, mull it over to figure out what angle I want to approach my subject. Then... I get lazy, and my laziness leads to procrastination. I really should write the damn thing while it's fresh on my mind. So! In an effort to make the writing process more appealing - I am going to allow my dining room table to be overrun with books, pen & paper, (I know, I'm so "old school"), and yes even computer cords. I will no longer make myself way too comfortable on the couch, allowing the interruptions of my "favorites" to take me away to other web destinations.
Having now said that - I will allow walks with Lucy to interrupt, occasionally.
Lucy likes yellow leaves.
A good walk, especially on a day like today, is good for clearing the head. It enables me to come back to my homework with fresh eyes, and ideas.
a whirlwind of Fall leaves.
Fingers crossed this new technique works!
