sway



i wrote the short story.
i had some hard time finding the true motive to write it at all - a task given at a virtual writers' course is just not an internal motive, for me it is not.
i usually write when i feel i have to.
so, i had some difficulties starting the writing at all and i knew it did not come out that good.
-
i received suggestions from my course-mates towards re-composing the story.
i plan to take a good break and rewrite it.

the writers' course

i am attending a virtual writers' course and it pretty much takes up my free time.
this is a basic course.
we are through editing and beta-reading each others' short passages and also with writing a synopsis for a short  story and for a novel.
and now our task is to write a short story.
the main theme is 'loss' and we are encouraged, but not obliged to, make use of the 25th anniversary of the Chernobyl events.
