Hey Everybody!
This is my introduction to creative writing. I took this class for a whole bunch of reasons. With help from this class I really want to grow as a writer. I play and write music and I really feel like I have trouble getting what I feel on paper. I'm afraid to put my thoughts and feelings out in the open and allow people to take a walk inside my head. It scares me, and I hope that through this class I can get more comfortable telling people how I really feel and showing everyone the real me. One day I hope to be able to apply my musical and writing talents to a career. It's something I really enjoy and I'd love to be able to do it for a living. Some of my interests include playing and writing music, basketball, football, and really any kind of sport. I like being with friends and partying it up! I chose the pen name Syd Barrett because he is the founding member of Pink Floyd. Aside from him founding one of my favorite bands, he also was kicked out of the band after just 2 records. I've always been fascinated by his songwriting and his insanity. I'm excited to write under this alias and I'm just way psyched for the upcoming year!
