The Undiscovered Country

Feet Wet

I stole a few minutes from work (shhh. Please don't tell) and perused my portfolio.

I found the first item I posted back in September 4, 2005. Almost three years ago now.

It's nothing special, but merely the only thing I felt worthy to share with others at the time. It was an assignment for the Apprentice correspondence writing program I took through the Christian Writers Guild.

You can read it here:

On the Wings of Smoky Air  (13+) An exercise of the senses. #1007888 by vivacious

Now before you stumble over there to read it, I want you to link the first item you posted either as a comment here or in your own blog - if'n you got one. I'm curious to know what first thing you found worthy to share with the world and why you thought it so. I also want to know what your thoughts are on it now. What's changed from the way you wrote then to how you write now?

Would you rewrite that item, or leave it as is?

For me, I would tighten it up quite a bit. I tend to be wordy and repetitive, and this item contains examples of both. As for the story itself, it requires no changes.
