Here it is. Finally. The end of the matter. Basically Part 3 revised. I included the entire “short story” here. Enjoy!

Finally…! Part 4 (end of Part 3 included for a little refresher 😉) Hoping to wrap this one up soonish. We’ll see. There’s potential for a longer version someday, but probably not what I’ll be focusing on. I just want to give this a satisfying finish. The next…[Read more]

Next part! Enjoy!

Thud, thud, whack. The heavy bag spun away from her and she wiped the sweat off her forehead with the back of her hand. She bounced on her toes and continued. Jab, cross, squat. Breathe, release, repeat. Kick, punch, kick, punch. T…[Read more]

@claire-h I’m curious about her backstory too… 😁

Let me know what you think. Still don’t know exactly how this is gonna end. 😏 Next scene is under construction and will be up soonish. Maybe by tomorrow but I’m working so it might be Monday.

@anne_the_noob14 I hadn’t thought about Judy as being pivotal, but I like that idea. Thanks so much!

I haven’t been on SE for quite awhile, but after taking a creative writing class this past semester I thought I’d jump in again.

I haven’t read everything on this topic, but what I have read is really good. Thought I’d share one of my poems and get feedback from you all, what you like and don’t like! This one’s called “Amazing Grace”

Thanks for the welcome. I’m in a hefty class right now so I’m not able to keep up with this as much as I’d like.

I don’t read fiction as much as I used to or should, just because I’m normally reading some ginormous systematic theology book…. My favorite fiction books change with every one I…[Read more]

Hi @abigail-rebekah! I taught myself a few guitar chords and I used to take piano lessons. Piano wasn’t my thing so when I got to colleg…[Read more]
