Hopefully I will learn. I've already learned they use a different jargon. For example, workshop = critique.
My first assignment was a very short (2/3 - 3/4 page single space) story on an assigned prompt. That was a challenge. I always have lots of ideas I want to write about, and it's been many years since I've been told what my topic must be.
I needed a name for the second character -- a name that reflected a certain, not innocence, but goodness. Argh. I finally used my default name of Jane, thinking I'd change it later when inspiration struck. It didn't, so it's printed now with Jane.
How do you choose characters' names? Very tricky, although sometimes inspiration does help.
