Do you use writing prompts? I love them for creative exercise. Here’s a fun one I copied directly from Poets & Writer’s email newsletter: Choose three people who you know well and write a detailed character description of each one. Now change the gender, name, and a few physical traits of each one. Begin a… Continue reading Writing Prompts
Ahhh…A Clean Desk
I spent the better part of two hours going through the clutter hiding the top of my desk. Wow! What a difference just a tiny bit of organization makes in my outlook. I can now work in that space. I also cleaned and organized my computer desk. Looking at my nice, organized writing space makes… Continue reading Ahhh…A Clean Desk
Snow Days
WordPress challenged bloggers to write more in 2011. In order to give myself a fighting chance, I joined the blog-a-week challenge instead of the blog-a-day challenge. Every day there’s a new blog topic idea on the Daily Post. In light of the weather forecast for the next 48 hours, today’s idea on the Daily Post… Continue reading Snow Days
CSFF Blog Tour Day Three
First I want to apologize for the lack of depth to my posts for this months tour. The Wolf of Tebron is a good story, well written, and well thought out by author C. S. Lakin. If you like fairy tales or fables or just like to read stories that make you think or love… Continue reading CSFF Blog Tour Day Three
CSFF Blog Tour Day Two

Morning Pages
One of the people I follow on Twitter recently started writing morning pages, an exercise advocated by Julia Cameron. The morning pages exercise is a way to capture those random thoughts, snippets of ideas, or other unconnected bist swirling around in our heads. The idea is to get up each morning and write longhand whatever… Continue reading Morning Pages
Our Strangely Quiet House
We cancelled our TV service. Effective Monday 4/19/10 we no longer watch TV in our house. Okay, we’re not totally without television entertainment. We upped our Netflix subscription to three movies at a time. We still have movies on the DVR to watch. But no more Dish Network. Why did we choose this radical, maybe… Continue reading Our Strangely Quiet House
