    2025 Anthology - Big Announcement!

    By Valkyrie

    Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and Joyous Kwanzaa to all who celebrate! I'm still in a bit of a food coma from Christmas dinner, but I wanted to bring a reminder and also some important news for next year's anthology.  First, submissions for Carlos' tribute event are due tomorrow, so be sure to put the finishing touches on your stories and post the link in the thread in the Writer's Circle.  Second, I decided to do things a little differently this year, and instead of having a committee decide

This vignette, a peek into a life that was lived though a different lens, should not be missed!  Length: 9,880 Description: An itinerant photographer stops by the one town he’s avoided for the last twenty years. What is it he hopes to encounter there? What is this ‘one last thing’ he feels he has to do? A Reader Said: If you like hist

I miss my cuddly friend.

A few weeks ago, I lost my best friend and loyal companion. He had just turned seven years old when he was diagnosed with severe kidney disease, and despite several false hopes and attempts to prolong his life, he rapidly deteriorated and succumbed at home in my arms. In these troubled and violent times, it feels somehow wrong to grieve over the loss of a dog, but his death hit me hard and left a gaping hole in my life. I miss the guy more than I care to admit, which is strange, considering

Weekly Wrap Up (Aug. 11 - Aug. 17)

Interesting question for you all, I think. Boxer or briefs ? No, not that one, I've asked that before. Also I know I would have to add in the granny panties option for one particular Author here at the site . Nope. This might cause some fighting  Are you a dog person, a cat person, both, or neither? I"ve never had a pet and I don't think I really want to ever own one to be honest. But it seems like I am judged for that opinion . So if you must judge me, go ahead, I have broad shoulders.

Writing vs. Editing vs. Beta Reader

I guess it’s been a while since I’ve had anything to blog about. Today is the day to change all that.  I am in a writing slump at the moment. I think a lot of factors have fed into this. Since the beginning of the year, I lost my job, started a new one, packed up and moved, downsizing from a decent size home to a very small condo. My son moved back in, which we weren’t planning on when we signed the lease on the condo. Tight is an understatement. On top of that, I’ve been battling issues wi
