Weeks 9-10

Well, once again, I forgot to post a reflective journal last week.  10 Fail Points for me.  Anyway, it's the end of the semester and things are getting hectic.  I've been working a lot on finishing my short story and at this point I'm like 95% done.  I think this week's workshop will really help me decide what needs to be added or cut from the story to reach that 100%.  I'm pretty nervous about presenting my story in a few weeks; mainly because of the question portion that comes after everyone has presented.  I'm probably going to stumble all over myself, oh well.  To get back on track with my story: I've been trying really hard to develop Jinny into a stronger character.  I've turned this story into a sort of "finding yourself" story where Jinny is the person trying to find herself and trying to become a stronger person.  She really sticks up for herself in a couple of scenes and I'm quite proud of her.  I still feel like I need to add one more scene in this story to give a better insight into both Jinny and Camille; it'd be dedicated to talking about their past and answering some questions people had during my last workshop.  I just have to find the right place to put it right now. 

All for now,
Liz
