It's way past time....

that I started thinking about continuing my degree with the Open University.

As I've mentioned before, I'm thinking about doing this course, which is an introduction to writing fiction. It's only a twelve week level one course, so I wouldn't be able to apply to have my fees paid for me on this one - which is why I haven't already signed up, frankly.

I'm also considering going for the level two course Creative Writing in September, which is a full course and I would be able to get some help towards fees (Thank goodness!), but I'm a little concerned that I'd be repeating myself. Though admittedly taking the short course would let me know if I'm up to the longer one - I could do with help with my writing, frankly, but I also have the odd confidence problem. Plus, poetry? Do not want, kthxbye! That's something that does not appeal to me in the slightest.

What do you guys reckon? I have till March to save up for the short course.

Also, also! *bounces happily* GUESS WHAT THEY'RE FINALLY OFFERING!!! I wants it, precious!!! *coverts* Hell yes I will be signing up for this one in November! :-D I don't think this one would scare me as much as the French one did, odd as it sounds - mostly because I am so desperate to learn!

Ah well, back to work now. Going out this evening with some of the other mums from Rowan's school - should be interesting! I'm touched they thought to include me, frankly, and I'm hoping it'll be a good night.

I would look at doing the short course first, last thing you want is to take on the longer one and find out you don't like it or cant juggle things.

*nods* That's probably what will happen, ultimately.
