Welcome to the pond

Nearly every time my paternal grandmother comes over to visit, she asks if I've been doing any writing. Not counting my blog, which I want to keep secret from my family for now, I always say I haven't.

Today, though, I finally decided to start writing a story. It will be a short story, because I'm not experienced nor ambitious enough to do a full novel. It's a story about a guy named James Jefferson, a mechanic from Pennsylvania who travels through a small town in Arkansas on his way to visit his sister. While there, he discovers he has a forgotten past in that small town, and tries to find out what that past is and why he can't remember it.

Perhaps I'll blog it when I'm finished with it. Or, if anyone knows any good sites on the web where one can publish a story, that would be good too! Let me know if you do.

*update* I think I've abandoned this project. I never got beyond the first two chapters. I might start another story if I can think of a good subject to write about.*
