Mrs. Dalloway

Whoa, what a crazy week. I just finished an intensive flurry of writing 12 new poems for a creative writing class. I hope they're up to snuff, it's no secret among my friends that I've never liked it. However, this time I enjoyed several of them. I'm also reading "Mrs. Dalloway" by Virginia Woolf. It's an interesting book with several different characters taking up the narrative. It's been praised as expertly making just everyday activities engaging to read, and this is for the most part, true. I think it's a double edged sword - preparing for parties and watching people play or walk, for example, can only be so intriguing. But Woolf puts us right into the heads of all these characters, even some minor ones, just so we can get a glimpse into their life and feelings. It's growing on me the further I get into it. I'm also writing 10 more pages on a screenplay that's going pretty well so far. I'll have to have 50 done by the end of the semester, and I've got 26 or so now. 4 or 5 more pages to be done by late Monday, shouldn't be too hard. Oh, I'm rambling. Hope everybody's weekend's going well!
