Good morning, Tuesday readers. Thanks for doing this day with me.

Today, I have a theology paper due, a short story to re-write, a personal essay to look over, and an essay about SPAM to edit. Needless to say, I'm short on time. Spring break is just a week and a half away, and I have so much to complete before that big fat due date next Wednesday.

Hey, maybe I'll post something new and exciting for you in the next two weeks. It's about time I become a real writer, after all. I'll admit, though, it's hard to feel O.K. about showing my work. Really dang hard. I'm currently overcoming my fear of letting things be finished and presented to the public.

Yesterday in my fiction writing class we spent most of the hour talking about vulnerability. Yeah, I really need to get better at opening up and being honest, allowing my work to come through me and not just out from wherever a mediocre Twilight-type story comes from. Popular doesn't always mean exceptional.

Come back next Tuesday for a discussion on vulnerability.
