#7

1. The short stories, by far. They are almost completely open assignments so we can write about whatever. I feel that the short stories are also the best so far that test our actual abilities as writers, the prompts just get us thinking, and well poetry is just poetry, short stories were actually able to write something worth reading.

2. I think the newest short story, my creepy one, A Smile Worth a Thousand Screams. I feel like it's well written and it's a piece I actually enjoy.

3. I need allot of quiet, I'm distracted VERY easily. If I get at least something to start I'm able to go off the idea fairly well. I also found I tend to over think my writing allot, I compare my own pieces to those of others and just never seem satisfied with my outcome.

4. I'm fine with whatever I guess. I'd definitely would like to continue these open topic short stories.

Just a suggestion, a way to concentrate in order to do your work is by looking at a orange juice carton. I'm just kidding just find the quietest place imaginable.
