Balance

It's incredibly hard, I find, to balance work, school and my creative endeavours. If I'm working on my fiction, I feel guilty for not doing school work. If I'm doing school work, I don't feel like I am spending enough time writing fiction. And if I'm at work, there's not much opportunity to do either.

It would help if I knew which direction my life was going to take or which path I should choose to go down once school is finished. Although I suppose that knowledge is something everyone wishes they could have.

As far as my fiction writing goes, I need to have more opinion on my work than just that of my family. I'm sure they try to be brutally honest but I've caught them red-handed trying to avoid giving me honest criticism. So on that note, I'm going to post some work online here in hopes that at least a couple of people will read it and comment on it with whatever criticism they may have, be it positive or negative. Hopefully, there is no limit to how large a single post can be. I guess we'll soon find out.
