aamcnamaraBreaking radio silence (because of Way Too Much To Do and Way Too Little To Talk About) to celebrate.
I entered the Writers of the Future contest this summer while at Odyssey, with a story written and, with the help of my classmates, revised there. It was the first time I'd entered.
And guess what? I got an honorable mention!

Okay, so it's not finalist, and it's not semi-finalist, but there is time, there is time. For right now, I'm pretty pleased with my result.
Maybe this will give me the needed momentum to start revising, writing, and submitting stories. School provides a much-too-easy excuse to me--oh, I couldn't possibly do that, I've got homework! I've got extracurriculars, and college applications!
On the one hand, yes, those are still important. But I do want to keep writing.
