I offer for you…(for the low price of absolutely no money whatesoever) The Ezra Wilkinson System instead.

Write.

It’s highly simple, but it works wonders.

(Disclaimer: The Ezra Wilkinson System is highly flawed, as it took him two years to write fifty thousand…[Read more]

If there were a flaw however, it would be this: Once again, things come down to the individual. I’ll actually quote Studio C here, (or as best as I can remember the quote): “By that logic you can justify any action simply by placing another person on the enemy side.”

You see, I’m beginning to realize that I’ve…[Read more]

Guys, I’m fifty ok.

When I quickly scan through the first few pages, we’re not assuming that the person is innocent. As in the terrorist example. We know they’re…[Read more]

I point you to this guy who posted just above me. Watch out for him. He posts weird GIFs.

By definition, the use of torture /is/ a punishment. For the withholding of information in this case, or the causing of innocent people to die through negligence.

In principle, the two matters /shouldn’t/ be different. Consider the terrorist example. Contrast it to the examples of ‘punishment’. The terrorist is being…[Read more]

What qualifies as torture?

D’yknow, whipping is actually a pretty common one. Romans used it. I’m fairly certain we’d all agree on that. And…Jesus did too. Soundly whipped all those in the Temple, disgracing it. Perhaps not in the same manner the Romans did, but the idea behind it was the same.

I’ll need to double check…[Read more]

And because it’s supposed to be absurd on as many levels as it can be.

What’s one more?

You know you’re a writer when you make writing an excuse for everything.

Why are you talking you yourself? I’m a writer.

Why are you researching how to fight with a dagger? I’m a writer.

Why are you always on the computer? Take a guess…

This is probably the most accurate thing I’ve ever seen, because every writer I know does this…

I’ve written one novel, and have started work on another. The first was entitled ‘Humanity’s Lie’. Feel free to obsess over just how /utterly/ amazing that is. (And if you think /that’s/ amazing, the actual interior is even the opposite of BETTER!)

My current WIP is of an entirely…[Read more]

If it’s not your first novel, I think it might be less useful as well…it’s kinda designed for first novel use, though I know…[Read more]

You forgot the alien.

But careful now. Don’t go hitting on my girl.

If I knew, I’d just act the way I’ve been acting, because it’s more amusing for everyone involved that way.

And hey.

The podcast goes on.

Whoa, Ezra… I’m bummed it happened too. It is a decision I do not fully understand.

I think it’s a decision no one really understands…we’re fairly certain that it was actually an alien playing a cruel joke, and everyone thinks everyone else did it.

Classic case of “He said, she said, alien said.”

Write a poem Ezra, write a poem.

Very well:

He gave you blood

He gave you tears

Then came the realization of his fears

Go hug a tree hippy

Ta-da

He gave you everything.

His time.

His laugh.

He works, his effort, his blood, his sweat, and his tears.

You killed him. You cast him out.

You are all unworthy.

And if you don’t know what it is…

I’m so sorry.

If you really want to know, go read that short story I posted on here…somewhere, I dunno. It’s a pretty good summary.

I’m never gonna post it though, because as Rosey said, a smart person /should/ be able to infer the entire thing from my other post.

And because since the KPR cancellation, I’ve lost all loyalty to this place.

Trolololololololo

1. Harry Potter. It’s sad. So. Many. Times.

2. To Kill a Mockingbird. I usually can hold together pretty well, but that last stinkin’ line…

3. Halo. Just…it’s terribly sad.

4. Many Doctor Who things. Because it’s Doctor Who

What’s the point of the story? Is it about how all these people work and…[Read more]

I’ve found that perhaps the root of 90% of the problems in books I read is lack of necessity. Why is this subplot there? Why do we need to hear this information? Why is this character acting this way?

Basically, what purpose is…[Read more]

What could this corset do anyways? You say it is of all power, but what do you mean by all. Can I (excuse me, one who is wearing it (not I. Ha!)) rearrange the order of the universe simply by touching their nose with their left hand?

OK, imagine that you’re wearing the corset…everyone now…imagine him in the corset.

Are you…[Read more]

Well if that wasn’t the simplest answer. Sheesh— how come I didn’t think of that? It’s good we have you here to tell us these things, Ezra…Well if that wasn’t the simplest answer. Sheesh— how come I didn’t think of that? It’s good we have you here to tell us these things, Ezra…

I don’t know why I was needed to give wisdom…I mean…I…[Read more]

The question, as I see it, is somewhat simple in concept. Because really, what is writing but creating stories where the reader is forced to relate to things that they have never experienced? I don’t know what it’s like to murder someone. When I read Edgar Poe’s “A Tell-Tale Heart” I feel connected to it. I relate to what I…[Read more]

Hm… this comes pretty close. ‘Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. Do not add to His words, lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar.’ And that’s… in Proverbs, somewhere. Chapter thirty, I think.

This is about the…[Read more]

Hail.

and Wilkinson

But really…it’d be hard to find something that random that /didn’t/ ‘fit in seamlessly’.

The ‘contest’ I entered this story in, had the parameters of having to follow a prompt given by the judge. One of the prompts was, “Use this phrase in your story: Today I spilled my coffee. Someone is going to die.”

And I did.

I say Mark, I haven’t posted the WIP here…

Just a ghost town ghosting around.

Slave, drone, mindless-one…

I have no idea what that does, but it’s what I do when I have writers block and feel like writing something…different.

To date I can’t see as it’s ever really solved the problem, but it’s a good way to work out themes, and ideas and stuff that might be floating around in your head.…[Read more]
