"Is your bobbin raised?"

I recently have been writing some catalog copy for a new eco-friendly t-shirt company -- Jetpack Agenda. The t-shirts are pretty awesome. One of my favorite shirts is "That What She Thread" -- an homage to sewing (as well as my friend's Etsy page that features cute aprons) and NBC's "The Office"...

Dis Your Kid II

Son's part of this exercise was up on the screen when I came down this morning. It's intentional as he wants me to proof it. I am at a loss to explain why, but son has never learned to write. Not writing with style and flourish, but just write period. He's literally a living in the flesh poster...

A Funny Thing Happened

I woke up with a goal in mind. Today, yes TODAY, I was going to finish up this proposal/research paper that has been hanging over my head like a guillotine. The word limit was 3000-5000 words, and I have had 1300 words (all appendices and the introduction) finished for weeks now. Research is piling...

中"独"了

"独", 很深 让三点半的午后, 比午夜更寂静 未成型的思绪 或随呼吸蒸发去, 或象冰块化不去 不是缥缈, 就是哽咽 "惜独" 难道也是一种病 让人渐渐步向"声"亡?

NaProWriMo

I was going to write a novel this month, like everyone else. (I hope someone still reads novels)... Actually I thought I'd finish the one I started last year, which combines a historical lesbian murder mystery with ex-pat magical realism. In Paris. Yeah. But then 2 weeks ago my former boss called. I...

Writing is Writing

You know, one of the things that drives me nuts is when people say that writing is only writing if it's going to be a book. So people who create newspaper articles aren't writing them, they're creating them? Bloggers are not writing, they are blogging? It doesn't matter if my subject is a novel for...

Writing & exhaustion don't really deserve separate categories here.

ON WRITING: I busted ass on Monday night and wrote down 4,000 words. It put me above the required count for the first time since November 2nd. Of course, I then spent Tuesday night playing Civ and watching artsy movies (and yes, writing a bit). I started treating writing like a homework assignment....

Heat....by: BlooWriter

He comes to me by day Rarely by the light of the moon For my love I dim the lights To create artificial night For us two I love you baby Are always his first words In whispers Silent but heard Before he touches me Crawling in deep “ Damn! the things I want to do to you” He says His eyes full of...

NaNo update #8

It's November 15 (well, it was a few minutes ago) - the half way point. The day when NaNoers ought to reach 25,000 words of their 50k target if they want that steady-paced success. And I am so there! Past there, actually. After a week of the dull real life stuff I just couldn't get myself not to...

FSotD

I'm taking an extended break in my 25 minutes-on 5 minutes-off schedule today to post an FSotD to prove that I have been writing today! With the goatee grown in, David now looked like his own evil twin. (I stole this from real life -- the same is true of Cappy when he has one.) Okay, break over,...

Judson Jerome on Poetry

Really like this quote posted at writersonlineworkshops.com: "Poetry is more fundamental than written language.... It is one of the characteristics that defines us as human.... Where there are people, there is speech; where there is speech, there is poetry." —Judson Jerome, The Poet's Handbook...
