First off, thank you guys SO MUCH for all of your responses on your favorite short stories, essays, and poems!!! No joke, I have over 18 items checked out from the library now based on y'alls recommendations bahaha.
Following Ray Bradbury's advice in Zen in the Art of Writing, my goal is to read 1 short story, poem, and essay per day as well as write one short story per week for the month of September.
My plan is to do an "I Tried Writing Like..." video early in September and then a follow-up after finishing the whole month challenge. :)
(Also Shay from ShayWithThaHobbies and I are going to have at least one ~short story stream extravaganza~ where we hop from my channel to hers. It'll be really fun and I'll be sure to share more when we've got a date finalized!)
So here's where the vote comes in! I think this could make for a really cool ~group experiment~ for those that are interested (or interested in a small part of it!) so I wanted to know what aspect of that group environment y'all are looking for. So please vote for which option you'd MOST like (and I'll see if I can find a way to include multiple/all of these throughout the month)!
THANKS SO MUCH Y'ALL! :)
