Newsflash!

I could show you this: or this: or this: or this: or this:   or this:   Or I could just jump up and down shouting "I WON! I WON! I WON!!!" Because I did it.  I actually wrote over 50,000 words all under my own steam.  In under a month.  Best of all, I'm still going.  ... Read More

Today I won't be giving thanks.  Boo hiss n'all that, I can take it.  Today is just another normal day.  Get up, go to work, force yourself past Starbucks without getting the coffee you so desperately crave because you definitely overdosed yesterday and don't want to feel like that two ...

Sky Full of Butterflies

          "I suppose you wish to tell your mother then?"           "Please" she said, asking his permission.  She bit her lip, hoping he would say yes.             "In the morning."           She hugged him tightly and retreated to her room.  She hadn't slept for days and was starting to tire.  As she slid under the covers of her bed she ...

Because of you

This week's prompt on Search Engine Stories was 'because of you'.  Well in fact, this week we were lucky enough to get two prompts.  Because of you was the main one, but we were also provided with the idea of a prompt to write a perfect paragraph, that one being ... Read More

And why are we blogging today then?

So that's it then, I've finally hit that mythical writing stage: procrastination. You see, I've come to the point where although I can see the end of the story, can reach out and touch it, I just can't arrive at that magical ending.  There are points along the way, and they ... Read More
