Well, I'm still stuck on chapter nine of my book and I don't plan on making the little deadline I gave myself. I decided to take it slow. That way I can pay closer attention to the detail I want and hopefully make a better book than I would have if I just ran through… Continue reading Writing Update!

It’s Absolutely Amazing
Every now and then I feel the urge to clean. I hate a cluttered workspace and for the most part a cluttered home (which is funny because I was always a messy person at my mom's house and then my dad's). Today happened to be one of those cleaning days. The object of my obsession?… Continue reading It’s Absolutely Amazing
A 60 Second Thought
So, for a while now I have been toiling in my mind trying to resuscitate a short story that was butchered and sewn back together into this absolute abomination I could never claim as my own. Seriously, I felt like I took all the advice from people and meshed it into this Frankenstory. It sucks.… Continue reading A 60 Second Thought
Random 60 Seconds
So, I follow NaNoWriMo on Facebook and they posted a little writing prompt today. Naturally, I felt like writing something. Here it is: Today's writing prompt: write a paragraph of the very first thing that comes to your mind. No pausing to think, no perfect crafting, just write. One paragraph. Go. One paragraph? Just one?… Continue reading Random 60 Seconds
Assignment 6
I'm actually finding this very enjoyable! Even though I haven't gone through the book as fast as I usually do, I have gotten a lot of inspiration from the assignments. Sadly, I'm not too sure about how I actually feel about the book. I am almost done though (111 pages left to read and then… Continue reading Assignment 6
Assignment 5
Like I said before, I doubted I was going to stick with the order of assignments. Anyway, here's assignment 5! (And there really is a place, but I'm not sure if it's been destroyed or not. It was near a large intersection and in the middle of my neighborhood at the time. I'm sure it's… Continue reading Assignment 5
To write or not to write
In case you are wondering, I don't know if I will do every assignment in the book I'm reading. Some of them don't spark me with interest and others would take too long a time to write. Besides, I've never really finished every single assignment in my fiction class in college. Not that that's a… Continue reading To write or not to write
Assignment 2
Think of a person from history intrigues you. Napoleon? Cleopatra? Martin Luther King? Write a description of that person eating a meal. What would he/she eat? What would he/she be thinking about as he/she ate? What would they talk about? Remember: Bring your character to life! His hands worked hard against the steak, cutting it… Continue reading Assignment 2
Assignment 1
I am reading book #7 for this year and it is called THE FICTION CLASS. I had just read the first "chapter" of the book and in the end of it, an assignment for the class is posted. What's cool is that after every segment where the main character is doing her class, a new… Continue reading Assignment 1
Today is a happy day
Even though I had a nightmare that resulted in bad emotions connected to a happy time in my life (which I thought I resolved, but apparently my psyche didn't think so), today is starting to look good. I'm about to read my 7th book this year which is a helluva lot better than last year.… Continue reading Today is a happy day
