Adventures of a would-be Children's/YA Author - Yes, it is real fiction! - as she navigates college, books, and writing. Oh, and family. And life in general. But mostly books and writing.

Thursday Routines
So, I again went to return books, in order to semi-declutter my room. And of course I got out five more. That wouldn't be so bad if three of them were more than 400 pages each (one of which is 700-some). I also got out two books on CD.
I always hate summarizing myself. I love lots of things and hate having to choose one or two in answer to "What do you do?" or "Tell me about yourself." So I usually just describe myself as a film major, which I am. But I don't usually view myself as that; it's just an easy explanation. I could say what I'm fascinated by: architecture, education, folklore, history, the Muppets, film history, music, languages, writing, reading (kid's/YA, mostly), etc. And that'd be accurate, but I don't want to choose just one or two of those interests to define myself or create my career (except maybe writer. I could settle for that). I want them all, and more than that, but that's hard to get across in a twenty second introduction.
So I'll just say "I'm Becky. Nice to meet you." and leave it at that for the time being.
