Welcome!

Hey guys and gals, my name is Sam.

This blog marks a few things actually, first thing is serving as a testament to my ability to write everyday. My goal is at least 500 words a day ... even if it kills me. This blog will focus mainly on flash fiction, with a few other tidbits of book, movie, and video game review.

This is my first blog, so bare with me, this is a journey for both of us.
That also means if you have any suggestions or comments to offer, they will be greatly appreciated.

Maiden Voyage

 I'm approaching the last day of my undergraduate career. Soon I will be taking that piece of paper granting me permission to move on, and I will come to stand at the doorstep of that big scary world everyone warns you about.

I have been told to stay under the wing of school, I have told others to cherish their lives inside the protective walls of college, of their parents homes-and now here I stand, with all of those warnings shouting from behind me, and an unknown future unfolding before me. Six months ago I would have broken down, would have fell to the floor immobilized. But that was so long ago now. Now I'm not scared anymore. Im exhilirated.

 The edge of that cliff Im standing on is not so high up. And the jump looks like it will be fun. Who knows what the future has in store for me after that last leap. All I know is that I have time to figure it out. I have time to find happiness and try out new things. I will get to know more of me.

 I will see if I have wings to fly with
