the ramble dump

People write stories. Did you know that? Other people. People you wouldn't expect. This week, two people in my year have been revealed as writers of stories. One's writing a novel, the other has crazyrandom stories posted on some website. Whether they take it seriously or not, the fact is, they're spending their free time writing them. The closet writers are coming out...

Not I, of course. People I've been good friends with for over five years still don't know that I write stuff. I don't really know why. In earlier school years, it would have been because it just wasn't 'cool', but it's not really like that now.

Sitcoms.

Assignment: pick a sitcom and write a few scenes for it. A very difficult task.

Now, I've had this idea for a sitcom episode for about a year. And this assignment is just another one to get us to try different styles of writing, which doing my own would also do. Should I just scrap the assignment and do my own?
