Huh...
Just went thorugh the two bags and large box I brought home from school, full of papers.
Turns out it's all old writing. Poetry, plays, short stories, long fiction. I even found the remnants of the two novels I started writing. One had a little over 100 pages written, the other one had about 40. Gay romance novels, naturally. To think, I started those in High School. Wierd to me, somehow. Back then I thought one day I'd be this big famous author. I'd write screenplays for oscar-winning movies, my novels and autobiography would be on the best-sellers charts for months, and I'd win awards for my poetry.
So at the moment, I'm not sure what to do. I don't really need the stuff, so it's kind of stupid to keep it. But at the same time, I have a hankering to go through and completely facelift everything, edit it and try and finish the two novels. But also, don't really know if I should even bother.
Just wierd the things I hold on to, and the things I remember when I go through old stuff.
