Back to School...Again

I have started school back. Well, kinda--I'm in my third week of school and between different canceled classes, I still haven't had a full school day. The slow start is nice, though. Gives me time to adjust.

My busiest class so far has actually been creative writing. Now, wouldn't that be something--if my elective course turned out to be the hardest. I really enjoy it though. I'm learning a lot about developing characters. For every page of story, there's about a hundred pages of backstory.

Story:
Emily misses Maggie

Backstory:
How old are Emily and Maggie?
How did they meet?
Why does Emily miss Maggie?
What do they look like?
What are their hobbies? Dreams? Fears?
What other friends does Emily have?
Does Maggie miss Emily?
...(I think you get the point)

Anyway, that's all I have for now. There's been a kind of void in my mind the last few weeks--I haven't figured it out yet. But it is impeding my blogging abilities.
