Well, I’ve been working on it for several weeks, but it looks like I’ve finally completed the final draft of The Street Urchin’s Gift, a short story that takes place in Victorian England and revolves around a young boy and the mysterious box he recieves. This story took a lot of research to do and I struggled over whether to have an ambiguous ending or to have a very dark, fleshed-out ending. In the end, on the counseling of a friend, I went with the fleshed-out ending. Now all I have to do is find a publication who’ll want to publish it. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
Oh, and the weather around campus has been crazy. Snow, rain, sun, heat, cold, it doesn’t stay consistent. It’s like God wants to annoy us all for the heck of it.
Actually, that’s probably the case.
