I assumed everyone else would write about “normal” things-not reincarnation and seeing your soulmate from the past for the first time! What if they thought what I wrote was weird? I nearly erased it in favor of turning something else in, but then I remembered something Taylor had said: Since the characters and scenes that came to me while watching “Love Story” refused to leave my mind, I decided that for the project, I would write the first chapter of what I then called “The Story Inspired by ‘Love Story.’”Īfter completing the chapter, I stared at it for about an hour, worrying about what my classmates would think after reading it. One of our first big assignments in class was to write anything we wanted and bring it in to share with everyone.


In that semester at school, I was taking a class called Intro to Creative Writing.
