  • Sir Gawain and the Priest

    Sir Gawain,                                                                 You do not know me, but I am writing to request a favor. You do not know me so I cannot hope that you will grant a request of a total stranger, but I require your aid. It is a matter of life and death. Before I ask my favor, I would… Continue reading

  • Join in the fun!

    One of my friends has decided to join me in writing a short story every month, and she is using the prompts I am creating. Read her January story here on her blog: http://jenniferclarkwriter.blogspot.com/2015/02/january-prompt.html. I find it intriguing how different our stories are from the same prompt.

  • February’s Prompt

    My January story is posted. You might be wondering what prompted the story that emerged. I honestly don’t know. I didn’t write from an outline like I have in the past.

  • I’ve Not Been a Writin’

    ACK! It has been almost three months since I’ve posted on my blog… but what’s worse is that in that time I have not even looked at my novel. I can only blame myself of course. I could provide excuses but I won’t. Instead, it’s time to buckle down and get with it. A new… Continue reading

  • What have I been doing?

    It has been a long time since I have written about my novel progress. And you may be wondering, what have I been up to? I am wondering the same thing myself. After the last time I worked on my draft, which I admit was sometime in September, I took a break to do some… Continue reading
