My First Professional Gig
Last Thuesday night I was lucky enough to be invited along to my local Tafe campass to deliver my first lecture to a class.
Once I got over the initial stage fright I began to relax and tell them all about how I came to be a writer, I discussed flash and micro fiction at length and I got them to do an exercise where they were to write a 100 word story and read them out. I also touched a little on motivation and goal setting.
The course co-ordinator said to me at the end of the night in front of everyone that I would make a great teacher in the future at Tafe.
This came as quite a shock to me and I was flattered. I must have done okay.

Some great positive experience there, Chris. I know it must be nerve-rackin', gettin' up there in front of everyone.
Well done.
