    Daily Creates The daily creates were visually stimulating this week! I found my dormant inner artist come out, I used to be really into painting, but I let that go when other things became a bigger focus for me. I actually experimented using my laptop drawing application which was a interesting new media to draw ā€¦

    A letter to my future self.. Hi me! I bet youā€™re working to help everyone get along better. Maybe an ambassador? Maybe a humanitarian? I still donā€™t know what I want to be, but at 31 youā€™ve figured everything out. You still believe talking through issues and loving everyone you meet can help make the [ā€¦]

    Story Mechanics

    by
    Have you every thought about all the elements that combine to make a good story? Plot, Characters, Setting, Theme, Conflict, Resolution, etc. A story must have these and more to be a good story. Yet, even with all of these elements sometimes a story can fall flat. So, what is it that keeps a reader ā€¦

    Down the Rabbit Hole

    by
    A person could easily get lost down the rabbit hole of Wikipedia articles. There is so much information there to browse through and read. The writing prompt ā€œRandom Wikipedia Writingā€ takes advantage of all these options (3 stars). The challenge is to take a random page (a special Wikipedia link allows you to do this) ā€¦

    2010ish YA Books Analysis

    by
    I chose to do my analysis on these kinds of books because, as embarrassing it is to admit, these are the last books in my memory that I have read start to finish. This was probably back in 2012 or 2013. Around this time there were lots of YA books that...

    Monologue of the Erasable Pen

    by
    ā€œI would argue that Iā€™m Audraā€™s most useful pen. After all, Iā€™m the only pen of hers that can actually erase. Sure, she has a few erasable highlighters, but those almost always sit in the pencil bag and are only used on special occasions. Iā€™m an all day, every day kind of pen, baby! She [ā€¦]

    Am I a Storyteller?

    by
    I am not a huge fan of telling people personal details about my life ā€“ especially random strangers on the internet (sorry folks), but let me give you a glimpse.

    Thatā€™s Not What I Expected I donā€™t think I am supposed to tell you what this item is, but because it is not an everyday item, I will tell you that you will find this in both a gym and a therapists office.
