One good thing about being in school was that I wrote more frequently: often for assignments, but also to follow my own creative impulses. I have not written as much in the past few years (other than one script for a play that I revisit from time to time, but still haven't finished). This Thing will hopefully provide some additional motivation to flex my writing muscles.
I have always admired the well-crafted short story (whether it be presented as a narrative, or as a short film or play). I ran across a draft of a short story that I began several years ago, and I am hoping to finish it, or failing that, start from scratch. I'll let you know how it goes. If it goes well, you might actually get to read it.

Good on ya! That's a great goal. I enjoy short stories too. In fact I just subscribed to a New Yorker podcast where short stories are read. My favorite short stories are Roald Dahl's.
If your story is good and if I have any ambition, I'd love to have a go at turning it into a film. Split the zero profit.
