Funny Bump Story of the Day

Ok I couldn't resist this one....   Today was Ari's birthday party (she turned 6). She is in Bump's dance class along with a boy named D (who is 6 and a half). Well D keeps saying that he is Ari's boyfriend and Ari don't correct him, however, she makes room for Bump. Like today, D picked a spot that had two seats left for him and Ari to sit to have their hot dogs and mac-n-cheese, but Ari made her daddy move another chair over so Bump could sit with them too.   Well, Ari has a big brother

Puck's Story.... It was a Vacation Day

as many of you know Puck has been giving me a headache about writing his story, well I've got him pinned, skewered, and a roasting fire ready, but I really don't know what questions to ask him concerning his activities and whereabouts....   I know my readers do.   Please post your questions, or anything that has been niggling you about the entire series if you want so that I can get it cleared up in this installment.     Thank you for your assistance, it is much appreciated.

Writing Mothers

This is going to come as a surprise to some of you but I have trouble writing female characters. For some reason they fall flat and seem one deminsional. I especially have trouble writing mothers. Incase you didn't notice, Mrs. Hanover in It Was A... didn't have much screen time. There was a reason for this. None of the females did. Again, a reason for this. I really do suck at it.   Now I'm facing it again. I'm making this mother (who is french catholic) sound Italian.. or Jewish. I'

One-fifth check in

so today is the 10k mark.... did I make it?   Yes. With a little to spare.   I now have somewhat of a plan, a few characters, a bad guy and best of all.... a plot with something that looks like an ending.

And Off We NaNo!

Ok I'm still up so it's technically still November 1 for me. Deal with it.   I have no plot.   I have no plan.   I just finished roughly 1700 words.   It's going to be an interesting month.   Go! Go! NaNo!   p.s. I'm not going to be giving daily updates. Every 3-4 days should be sufficiant don't you think?

Boner-deflating or not?

I am working on a story with a scene where the main character is having his first bit of man sex after being in a long term relationship with a woman. The woman is now deceased and has been for two years. He is testing the waters so to speak about his own sexuality agian, prior to his marriage he had played both sides of the fence.   During the man-sex the new fling preforms a sexual act that his wife would never do. He mentally makes that connection.   The problem comes in that one of m

NaNoWriMo

It's nearly November. For most people in the USA that means sacrifice the birds! It is the beginning of the annual family overdose, crowded malls, endless bombardment of "buy me or feel guilty for disappointing your loved ones" advertising, too much turkey, fattening a goose, and other strange but once a year customs that you put up just for the sake of traditon and (sometimes questionably) loved ones.   For me, November also means a total break from sanity -- and a chance to overdose on caffi

Creature Creation

I've been punting around this were idea I've been having but I don't want your typical were-creature. Werewolves, werecats, etc are soooo over done. So I was thinking about some other type of creature. I've also seen snakes, seals, bears, and rats in various literature. Anyway... what about a wolverine? Mongoose? some sort of insectoid?   I've been trying to think of the pros and cons of each, why they would be "best" for a were. That sort of thing. Most of it comes down to mass. Large

Rewrite or Recycle?

In the beginning there is a blank page and along comes an Author. The Author seeks into the primordial ooze of imagination and finds and idea. After roasting it for a proper amount of time, the idea is found good... and it is written.   The question becomes.. what is the proper amount of time? I have stories I can kick out in a few hours -- little one shot flash fiction type things that need no editing to speak of -- and I have stories that I have been working on for nigh on twenty years.

Idea Overload

I've been doing a lot of edting lately and one of the things that I have noticed is that every time I am eyeballs deep in editing a story I have all these new story ideas creeping up on me in the dark. Sometimes they attack. They can attach themselves iike leeches to my soul until i pay them attention or they can dig under my skin like ticks and suck away at my motivation until they are bloated and I am numb...   Either way they have to be dealt with.   Typically I write these 'problem child

so they like to bite....

Lately, my characters have been biting and bonding, Ok, well not so lately, too. I've noticed this has been an on going theme in many of my stories for as long as I've been writing. Not every story of course, but for a vast majority of them.   Have you ever noticed that you have some strange (or not so strange) common theme in your writing? If so what is it?
