Telling the story

Today, I am at the airport in Tulsa waiting for a delayed flight. Fortunately, I learned through my other travels to have two hour layovers for international flights. So the delay should not be a problem. 

I have thought and thought about this trip. How do I find the story, my story? There certainly will be things to write about but my purpose is to write creatively. Learn to write fiction. I am still nervous about writing short stories. But this opportunity will definitely help me with this weakness and make me stronger in the classroom. My workshop will be with a woman who just published her ninth novel. My host is also published. I will be in great hands.
