    Prompts Featuring Creatures

    By Valkyrie

    In honor of our Anthology theme, I thought it would be fun to do some warm-up exercises. Maybe these will even turn into a complete Anthology story.  So let's go creature hunting!    PT Prompt #263 First line: "It's behind me, isn't it." PT Prompt#264 You buy a new pet and surprise your partner with it, only to find out they are deathly afraid of it.  What is it and how do you deal with the aftermath?    Please include the prompt number either in your sto

Writing Prompts #448 & #449

Hello again. If I am the one here you know it is Friday again! Friday, Friday, Friday ... drats. Someday I will get that song out of my head. Oh well.   Since it is that day of the week I get to challenge you all to a new set of prompts. One of them might finally convince you to sit down and write, or decide it is time for a break from your usual story and try something new and different. Either way, I hope one of these two prompts grabs your attention and makes you want to write. Just remembe

Update: 2Nd Week

Monday is deemed to be the worst day of the week. Mine was especially horrible. I was called by the deputy dean and was given a penalty for not going to last week's stupid activity. I was told to once again, collect 20 signatures from my batch mates and also my seniors of year 2 to 5, plus all the nursing students from year 1 to 3. I was so pissed and I felt like I was being bullied, when I refused bullying. Last Saturday's activity was not only a complete waste of time, but it to me, it actuall

The Ugly P Word

Which P word? Well it be similar to the way I stole that title from a Skype conversation with Wildone... Figured it out yet?   Plagiarism.   Yep, a thief struck again. I'm sure many of you remember my rant from a few weeks ago about how one of my stories, and 6 other authors' works were plagiarized on another site. A conversation ensued about how to protect your work, as an author, but I never had a chance to post it officially on the site. Well, this time we had a thief try to post their st

Cbdt Reveal: My New Take On Sex (I Am Going With It)

Well, the first 2 chapters are pretty tame, they are harmless in terms of sexual content, but Chapter 3 will start a new trend for me. I know I am not one of the most well known writers for mature content, nor is this story meant to be completely mature, but I think by the end of the 1st half with Chapter 12, you will see that I have changed as a writer.   Sex for my characters follows patterns of need, patterns of release. There is revelation to be found in sex, ideas are expressed about Homo

Typical Mumversations

Me: Mum, guess what? Google has a new logo. Mum: That really is so interesting Jordan. Mum: It's really going to affect the way I live my life. Mum: I'm going to wake up every morning and my first thought will be of Google's new logo. Mum: Thank you for sharing that valuable information with me. Me: You could've just said you didn't care. Mum: But I actually do care. Me: Really? Mum: No.

A Big Disease With A Little Name

In 1988 it was a death sentence. Everyone was afraid. If you want to know what it was like, this episode of the original 21 Jump Street did a very good job setting the mood.   Thank your lucky stars that you don't have to be afraid to find random friends and acquaintances in the obituaries- every frikkin day.   There are some that say that we will look back and be thankful that the AIDS crisis galvanized the gay community and brought us together like never before. We will be thankful that we

Sex And Literary Relativism

Since we have a Soapbox now for controversial political issues, I will only use my Blog for literary stuff and reviews, along with announcement for Cyber-Bullying Defense Team related story material, once I publish on October 23rd 2015.   So let's start with a topic that writers and readers have debated internally and vocally (at least in the past): What are the rules for sex? How old should your characters be if they form relationships or have sex in stories? What is the line between a story

Once Upon A Time

So as my little status update said, 'lil q will be 4 soon. Where did the time go? Where does my time go??   Despite the best laid plans (or is it overly optimistic expectations) I find I can not do all the things I used to do before she was born. I've finally given up on the notion that 'once she gets to "X" age, I'll finally have more free time again. That's a myth. I'll have my free time back when she goes to college perhaps, or when I retire, which ever comes first.   I'm not complaining,

Random Cute Guy- Anthony Ingruber

Did anyone else catch the movie The Age of Adaline? (It's a movie where Gossip Girl's Blake Lively is a woman who has been stuck as a 29-year old for almost 80 years after getting struck by lightning.) This newcomer named Anthony Ingruber did a VERY credible portrayal of a young version of Harrison Ford's character, and he looked cute as hell doing it:     He runs a YouTube channel where he posted his celebrity impressions, and h attracted the interest of the casting directors for the mo

Update: 1St Week Of Lecture Cont.

So, I was back on Wednesday night and I had trouble sleeping cuz my roomates wouldn't turn the lights off and had them on again way too early in the morning. I showed how annoyed I was, and it got better the following night.   Had fun doing clinical lab work, the only class that does not seem to involve any stress. Found out that the seminar we were suppose to have in the late afternoon was actually BY us not FOR us. Turns out we have to organize a seminar and invite our lecturers to have them

Trials And Tribulations

In case you missed it, Book 1 of Trials and Tribulations has concluded.   I've had a lot of support and well wishes through-out my endeavor to write this story, and I thank each of you for your part in making this story possible. I do not claim to be a writer with a lot of skill or professional training, but when I write, I try to pour my feelings into each and every scene. I can only do that with the continued encouragement from all of you.   I guess the main way readers can show that is th

Kitty Update!

As some of you know, my sister found an abandoned kitten a couple of days ago So I am going to give a quick update.   The night we found him, he didn't sleep well and he fidgeted a lot. By morning we found out why: the poor dear had fleas. Well we gave him a bath, and we managed to get rid of most of the fleas during that. However, some still clung on and so for the next hour or so we watched him to take the remaining fleas one by one as they too died.   So, now he is flea-free   Now,

Cbdt Reveal: What Inspired Me To Write This Story?

I know, we're still a month away from my official launch date, but I wanted to talk about why I wrote this story and some things that I just fel strongly about.   In 2012, I had this idea to create a story involving teams of hackers competing against each other in a secret war of information. I didn't think I was computer savvy enough to write it, so I left it off on my shelf for 3 years.   I recently read an article about Cyber bullying and its affect on Gay teens, which got me into plottin

Life Changes Sometimes

I've been gone for a pretty long time. Hi guys... remember me?   When I bowed out back in March, it was because we were getting prepped to move house. We bought a three bed semi-detached with a little garden and had to leave the big wild - we didn't go far, but houses in very rural Sussex are deeply expensive. We moved the day before my birthday, so I get to say I bought myself the most expensive birthday present ever!   So we bought a house, got some chickens, and in April I finally got the

Interview: Rob Colton

Today I'm featuring an interview with Rob as part of his Signature feature. Btw, did you download your copy of the background yet? Now, Rob is a popular man, so we've featured interviews with him in the past, so I didn't want to go with the usual author questions. This time I asked him a different series of questions, so I hope you'll enjoy this insight into the flash group, writing Noah's New Plan, and Rob's future plans!   What brought you to the Wednesday Briefers flash group?

Confessions Of A Political Addict

Damn it!   I was getting cleaned up and writing again, now I just got my first taste of Crack, Political Crack   I need to remember unlike years before I have a young story to think about; he's not even 1 chapter old yet; I can't just abandon him for a quick political score during the primaries.   Still, it is so much fun to debate, fight over views about everything from the role of government to the role of a parking ban against non-residents. Political debate is addictive; it's like sex

Update: 1St Week Of Lecture

Update: 1st Week of Lecture   First day of class doesn't really feel like class at all. Maybe it's because we had to sit through continous lectures mainly on how we should and can change our attitude and behavior and develope a more professional image blah blah blah. Surprisingly, the only person who stuck with me through out the day was someone from my foundation program last year that I honestly didn't really like. But she stood by me and I appreciate her company and there might be hope of u
