I loved the creative writing course and particularly the fact that it was home based. I think the conflict I felt, (as do many writers probably) was that frequently the best writing I managed was when I was going through difficult times. I was reluctant to share my work for discussion, as it felt too personal. Being quite a private person, I felt that I was revealing too much of myself.
I have read that new writers are frequently more autobiographical than the more seasoned ones, and that experience helps to create more distance! When I try to do that though, I feel that what I write seems bland and unconvincing.
