Writing Class

I took a writing class at school (after taking it, dropping it, taking it again, dropping it again and finally taking it, all in four days) I sort of expected my writing to become amazing by now (like, published-author-amazing). But seriously, the only thing I learned from that class was that there's more than one one type of essay. Way more than one type o.o
We spent ages writing essays and only about three weeks on the fiction unit. Last week had to write a flash fiction and after hours of staring at a blank screen - completely uninspired - I was able to write the flash fiction. I titled it 'My Friday Night With You' (I posted it on inkpop) after Katy Perry's song Last Friday Night.

The only good thing that came out of my Creative Writing classes in college is that my stories get workshopped by 20+ classmates. I didn't really learn much about writing techniques or whatnot from the teachers though.

That sucks. At least you got something good out of your classes though. People aren't very good at editing in my class. Their version of editing is to tell you that your title could be better.
