New Blog

I've started a new blog :Arjan Tales. I won't be publishing stories there, but biographies of generic characters, comments on the writing life, and perhaps an excerpt of something or other. One of the first things I'm doing is cataloguing story and character ideas. Being in a workshop helps my growth. I'm finally able to look at some reviews that I recieved back in November that I wasn't able to look at until I got past my Writer's Ego.

It's always difficult, giving a group of people a story and getting a lot of comments about what's wrong with the story, and little about what's right. I react badly to this sort of thing and I am learning to revise my work to make it better and (this is the important bit) publishable.
