Big Day

Well, with a day full of classes and the inauguration, I managed to forget to post. Bad Belinda! I don't really have a lot to say, other than the fact that I submitted my first short short story (five pages), and I'm terrified to hear the critique. I'm also looking forward to it. But still terrified.

Anyway, as a historical fiction writer, a part of me has to wonder... what will future historical writers say about this day? Any speculations? Try to put yourself in the shoes of a historical fiction writer, trying to capture this day. If you had one paragraph, what would you write?

And please, no flame wars. If you don't agree with what is written in the comments, please just ignore it.
