I'm just learning how to write short stories, and I'm loving it.

I am a college student finishing up my bachelor's degree, and I'm trying to fit in some last minute writing and English classes. If I can get good enough, I plan to get my master's degree in Creative Writing.

So, that's the reason I joined this website; I want feedback from YOU. I don't just want to know what I have done well, I want to also know what I can do to improve.

Update: I don't think I'm going to be good enough to get a degree in Creative Writing, so I have decided to get a master's degree in English. I still would like to get better at writing fiction, but at least now there won't be as much pressure to get good at it fast.

    I love what you have done with your story. You have worked hard and I can see the advancements you have made in your writing. I am proud of you and believe if you keep working at writing in no time you will be at the level of writing you want. I cannot wait to see what you write next. I am your number one fan!
