Writer's Diary

While looking around for tips to becoming a better author, I came across a clue to help decipher the great and mysterious world of writing that really resonated with me: keep a diary. But don't just list what happened to you, pick a scene from your day and write it as if it was in a story. Add color, make it pop, and make it real. I decided to try this out, but then I had a thought: if I'm writing it as a story, won't I want feedback to help me improve? So, I decided to post the diary. To protect everyone in my life, I will not be using real names. Enjoy my life, though I give you fair warning: insanity does not run in my family, it takes a stroll, getting to know each of us personally.
