Cloudy started the topic The Swirling Storm of the Writer in the forum Poetry Critiques 7 years, 7 months ago

A swirling sea rages,
within my weary heart,
a sadness and a longing,
ripping me apart.

I long to stop the stormy seas,
that roars within my ears,
the warm salt water gushes,
and lines my face with tears.

My pen is able,
calm the sea within,
keep my soul, my ship stable,
with words upon the page.

And as the ink flows from my pen
A lighthouse do…[Read more]

1. I don’t outline. Nasty habit, I know. But it just doesn’t seem to work for me yet. I need practice. But the faucet of ideas just doesn’t flow until I start writing. So I can’t help on that topic. SKIP TO THREE

3. I use google docs. And I haven’t tried scrivener so I have no opinion. But I love google docs.

4. I would research…[Read more]

Cloudy started the topic Short Story Idea (May turn into Novella) in the forum 7 years, 7 months ago

So I took a 6-day intensive on taming of the shrew. It ha quickly became my favorite Shakespeare play. So I wrote this blurb that would probably be stuck in the middle of the story somewhere:

The knight ride to the mouth of the cave. The afternoon light fell on him, dappled through the trees. The cave for which he had been seeking for o long…[Read more]

I’m bad with meter. I’m not done with the poetry curicculum and mom lost it like, two years ago. 🙁 But what meter would you suggest? I’ll look it up and try to tweak it. @daeus

I know I need to fix the narration. That’s why it’s in here! Thanks for the input! I’m glad you liked the ending. @jess

Tears trace themselves across his face,
His eyes, unmoving, staring into space.

His heart feels dead inside him,
His heart turns cold and dim.

His heart that once flamed with passion,
Now, is grim and ashen.

His soul, though, still flames on,
And brings in him a new dawn.

A flame of rage ignites his soul,
And he discovers his newfound…[Read more]

Are any of you on all poetry? It’s a great free poetry platform. You can see its list of great features on their website, and I highly recommend it.

I’m…[Read more]

Pixel art can work in several different ways. You can do it digitally on a computer or traditionally (on paper). Traditionally is worked like this: You pick your subject and then you color in squares of graph paper or make the squares yourself on regular notebook paper. Digitally it’s a lot easier. You can get a program or do it online (i prefer a…[Read more]

Thanks for the welcome, @aratrea. My premise is, there is a race of people that can shift certain parts of their body with animal parts (I’m not going to go into the rules right now XP ). A certain family is run out of their community for a certain reason (no spoilers XD this is sounding cryptic), and stay in America for several years (the…[Read more]
