Thanks so much!!! I love pretty much everything but mostly I learn Classical Music and Improvised hymns. I have a full sized violin to learn on but my older sister who knows how to play moved out and I am so nervous about tuning it. It’s awesome when you can learn stuff from younger siblings.
So how long I have worked on my novel is k…[Read more]

Hello @evelyn ! (Thanks, @libby , for letting me know about this post 🙂 ) Right now, I am actually working on putting together a short anthology of my best/favorite short stories, flash fiction, and poetry. The (working) title of the anthology is “A Silver Thread” (Dickens reference; I’m a nerd), and I am using the connection of time to link…[Read more]

Here is the finished story, where anyone can edit. It is honestly terrible but maybe y’all can do something with it. xDD I was also thinking we could write interview excerpts from where he interviewed other people potentially at the end of the story? But I’m not sure. Anyway, I could only fit the little boy with the word count available. Maybe I…[Read more]

@kb-writer Okay! Thanks for the suggestions! That does make sense.
Also, I’m wondering if my other tags didn’t work for whatever reason, because they aren’t links like yours was. 😛

Beautiful essay. I loved it!
And I totally get waiting until daytime. I do write a little too much. 🙂
Stalking? Gasp! 🙂
Haha! Yes, I’ve become more of a grammar-nerd as time has gone on, but I’m nowhere near picky enough, particularly when talking. I’ve had one too many instances of friends correcting my bad…[Read more]

So, lately I’ve been combing through my poems and the thought came up about how to sort them into a collection/book. When you create a book of poetry, what do you look for? Do you have to sort them a certain order? Do you have to have a over-arching plot/emotion arc through it?
Plus, just, have you ever wanted to write a collection of poetry?…[Read more]

That unfortunate duck. That’s awful (and hilarious).
Well, your poem just about sums everything up. What more is there to say? 😛
Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it) The Typing Poem is the earliest one I have. I’m sure I did more, but those have been lost or destroyed over the years.
This one is…[Read more]

“I love A.A. Milne! Believe it or not, I actually never read any Winnie the Pooh until I was much older (probably 12 or 13). The art and writing are so sweet though. I couldn’t help but fall in love.”
I had the same experience! It wasn’t until lately that I actually sat down an began to read any of this work, but after that, I ca…[Read more]

@kb-writer, welcome!! What genre do you write? Or read? How did you learn about S. E.? Glad to have you here! :_
@libby, love your C. S. Lewis quote. So true!

I almost missed you asking about brainstorming! I’ve very similar to Libby. Sometimes I’ll just get an idea (like how delicate roses are or how beautiful rainy days can be) and a line or two, and it just snowballs from there.
The chai tea poem is adorable! I love it (and chai tea. I’m a self-admitted tea addict).
I love A.A. M…[Read more]

My goodness. It’s been forever since I’ve started one of these. Sorry ’bout that. *looks sheepish*
This week’s discussion is on symbolism because I’ve run out of ideas for our theme 😂.
Symbolism can be a rather vague, mysterious topic, so I thought I’d share an article I wrote on that covers the subject. Here’s the link:…[Read more]

@libby @kb-writer So I’ve never read Robert Louis Stevenson’s children’s poems, so I’ve have to look into that.
For children’s poetry, I’m probably most inspired by Shel Silverstein and A. A. Milne, the author of Winnie the Pooh.
And… Chai tea… mmm. Yes. 🙂
So have you guys found any books or resources that help you in your poetry writi…[Read more]

@evelyn Hi! Sorry it’s taken so long for me to respond. I’ve been very busy lately. I literally just started cake decorating, getting books from the library and watching YouTube. (the haven for learning new things) I have not seen Infinity War yet….so no spoilers. 🙂 And the Book Thief is sooooo sad, It made me cry so I swore to never watch it…[Read more]
