@seekjustice I’ve done three blackout poems, and they don’t really have much of a design on them so I’ll just post the words here:
1. “Dreams meant running in a new stimulus”.
2. personality flung in to dramatic friendships”.
And last but not least, this one, which I have no clue what it means…
3. “”Are you eloping?” “No! “Unfortunately.”…[Read more]

Oh and yes! I’ve done blackout poetry! Remember that time KP did the blackout poetry contest? I wrote an entry for that, though I never entered it, and it was also a lot of fun! Have you done much blackout?

I sometimes write free form poetry, just to get my thoughts out, usually in my journal. I have tried writing an “Epic” poem, which ended up being longer than some of my short stories and I structured it around syllables (each line had, I think, fourteen syllables), which gave it a really nice flow. That’s not a very popular way of…[Read more]

The writer in me can’t help but be fascinated. I’ll definitely be praying for you, the doctors, your family and her!
By the way, thank you to all who prayed for my wrist. It’s almost completely healed now and I’m so grateful for your prayers 😀 @rochellaine @jenwriter17 @ariel-ashira and everyone else 😀

You know you’re a writer when you feel you should explain to your mom why she walked in on you downloading pictures of strangers off the internet. “He looks like my character. It’s for a collage… thing… it isn’t weird…”

I have a request
one of my younger sisters has a rare form of dwarfism. In fact, she is one in six known cases. When God called my family to CO it was a gift because one of the doctors at the children’s hospital specializes in the type of dwarfism that my sister’s is a branch off of. Anyway, H is nine years old and loves playing sports and riding…[Read more]

@kaya-young I like writing lots of different styles and rhyme patterns and rhythm patterns. I don’t know what blackout poetry is. One of my favorite poems is called The Destruction of Sennacherib by Byron. Thats the first one that comes to mind. Here, I’ll post it for you.

I enjoy it, mostly because I often manage to find character pictures on it :D. But I get so distracted as well. (Whoops)
And yep, I understand all those random first sentences that you scribble down and find randomly? They’d make great prompts though.
*breaths a sigh of relief* I’ll practise, I promise. and it would be super cool…[Read more]

I don’t know…Personally, I love Pinterest even though its…super distracting!
Editing takes me forever. When I’m doing a first draft, I literally just write, I don’t edit at all, so it takes only a few weeks. But editing…I agonise over every single word. Everything has to be better. I become obsessed and spiral into madness.…[Read more]

Exactly right. Now I’m looking at Jen’s pinterest and choking on laughter 😀
It’s coming along well. (Translation of that being: I’ve edited 3,000 out of 103,000 words. Yeah, hopefully you’ll be able to read it before you’re…too old.)

Well, at least your working on something. 😀
It was really good, I liked it a lot. But I’m still exhausted!

Well, I’m editing Stars then. I’ve definitely been doing that all afternoon 😛

Hey, yes! I am…at least…if you count watching silly YouTube videos as actually working.

Yes! A book club sounds awesome!
Also I followed you a few days ago on Pinterest when I was scrolling through the people who follow SE and was trying to find people I knew from KP. 😁
