If you didn’t know, I just finished a creative writing course. Yay! It’s been a while since I wrote on my blog, mostly because of that. They made me do all kinds of exercises to stretch my mental abilities, all of which has made me a better writer, I think. I hope. I am goshContinue reading “Yay! I finished!”

It’s been a while
I know, right? You’d think I’ve been really busy or something. With this quarantine I haven’t gone or done anything, and it’s making me a little buggy. I hope to get back to work soon, which would be something considering the company I work for is filing for bankruptcy. I’m bored to tears, and unsureContinue reading “It’s been a while”
This is harder than I thought!
I mean, writing should be fun, exciting, mysterious, and many other things. Who said it was supposed to be hard? No really, I want to know who said that! I mean, I’m doing this course and it’s got me thinking summaries, point-of-view, characters and development, now I’m writing “what I know”. What the hell!? WellContinue reading “This is harder than I thought!”
Wow!
I just finished another course and bot are my arms tired. Or should I say head? I had to write a short story, 1200 words! Now I know what you’re thinking; “You’re doing that now!” This was different. This was me having to write something I wasn’t used to writing. Maybe they call it “flexingContinue reading “Wow!”
Here’s something new.
I bought an on-line course in creative writing from the Centre Of Excellence. It was only $30 so I said, “Why not?” Then my sister said, “Are you talking to yourself again?” Moving on… So far it’s made me think of my writing differently after the first lesson. I had to develop a summary ofContinue reading “Here’s something new.”
You know what?
I heard that if you write something everyday, that will help make you a better writer. Just a little bit, something, anything for that matter, like this blog. I’m writing something right now, and you didn’t even know it. That’s ok, I’m wily like that. Don’t be offended. The only way to learn something isContinue reading “You know what?”
I did not expect that.
So I wrote this story and something weird happened. I want to tell you, but I’m afraid I’ll be putting out a bunch of spoilers. So if your curious as to what I’m on about, read the story first. It’s called Tied Up, and it’s in the horror section. Or just click here, anywhere onContinue reading “I did not expect that.”
This is a long read…
…but it’s fun. Now that we’ve all been grounded by this disease, it could be the thing you’d want to read to your kids for maybe five minutes of peace, or as a bedtime story. It’s about wizards, a good one and a bad one. Now, because it’s so long, I may have made aContinue reading “This is a long read…”
I’m an ass!
If you’re a fan you’ll remember how I lamented not having any ideas. But no sooner than I post that, I come up with three. One was an earlier idea I had from long ago (who needs notes). One was a sort of fantasy I had with the school principal. It started as a fantasy,Continue reading “I’m an ass!”
Creativity isn’t easy
I know there are people out there that make a living from it. Writers, photographers, musicians, painters, glass makers, potters, cobblers, tailors, just about everyone who puts their personal stamp on anything. Some find creativity in their cupboard, a jar of mystery, a case of suspense, a tin of humor. So here I am tryingContinue reading “Creativity isn’t easy”
