"None of them knew the color of the sky"
-Stephen Crane, The Open Boat

I'm writing a paper about naturalism in American Literature. It's on Stephen Crane's The Open Boat and Jack London's The Law of Life. I've been reading through some literary journals on both of the stories and have really learned a lot from them. I love how you can read a story once and not really get it, but the more you read it, the more profound it gets. 

I know my stories have not reached this level yet, but I hope to one day be the subject of an essay in a literary journal. I would love for someone to take the time to consider the meaning behind my writing. It is both an exciting and daunting thing to imagine, someone judging your creations.

Well, I am going to put the laptop up for the night and chill. I hope you all have a great night!
