I majored in Creative Writing and minored in Art. (It took me 55 years to get my BA degree. I finally graduated at the age of 68 with a 3.9 GPA.) I have a collection of short stories and when I am sick of writing switch over and do my artwork. But there is no outlet for my art where I live, so it just sits in my closet and collects dust. Same with my stories–they sit in my computer. C’est la vie!

A Terri, your short stories are treasures, and I’m sure your art is also!
Please take a picture of your art, and send some to me so I can appreciate
them also?

Would love to see your art pieces and read some of your stories!
Readers need Writers, so take a chance!!
I commend you for writing and painting. I have many stories floating in my head with a desire to give them life. I just need to start.
R.R., you may want to go online and see the many opportunities for short stories. Do not let them sit in your computer.
