How it all began....

Once in my undergraduate studies many years ago, I took a class on creative writing. Just a fluff, filler class my senior year. I enjoyed the class and listened to my professor, who had published several books, talk about having lunch with several rather famous authors. I didn't take the class seriously and pretty much goofed off. He told me at the end of the semester, "I wouldn't quit your day job if I were you." Now I have my Master's degree and always enjoyed writing essays and term papers, but never ventured into other more creative writing. Okay, professor..... I'm not quitting my day job but here we go.....
