The easiest way I've found to brainstorm alone.

A very simple plotting method that works for me.

A little essay on how I deal with the muse and elusive plots.

An article discussing a story's first round of edits.

These are some poems I wrote about a time in my life in my mid-teens, that was both painful and scarey for a young boy. I was facing both death and rejection. My grandfather had a lake we would go to and fish. But there were times I would go alone to just think and sort through everything happening in my life. This is my way of saying that if we would just stop and think our way through things, there is no mountain we cannot climb or no goal we cannot reach.

Just me venting frustrations, laugh if you guys want.

This is going to be where i am going to publish the writing exercizes that i have discovered and been directed to by members and through the Writing Prompts Forum. Enjoy reading my small little tales. I am going to attempt at least four exercises a week for your enjoyment.
