Where Everybody Knows Your Name

The awesome thing about a blogging class (and most creative writing classes, really) is that you get to know this weird little slice of all the people in the class.

I know everyone's name (though it took me a little longer to pair names with faces for the people sitting behind me), and I know everyone's blog. We've all put a little bit of ourselves out there for everyone to read this semester, and it's been a lot of fun. The only other experience I've had like this was when I took a creative non-fiction class last year. When you are constantly writing and reading the writing of your peers, it's kind of a bonding experience, no?

This is the first time since I started at FGCU that I've gotten to know all the people in my class. Even in smaller classes you don't get the interaction of this class. It's definitely been fun :)

It is! I didn't think I would keep up with everyone's blogs after the class but I already check daily to see if people are updating. I hope some stick with blogging after the semester so I can keep reading!
