I have always believed I had a wild creativity, an insane imagination filled with crazy-wonderful characters and ideas. Sometimes, however, it feels like I’ve run dry. Not really. Characters abound. Ideas abound. But plotlines… they seem scarce…

The Invitation
Today’s snippet, titled “The Invitation”, is a piece I wrote about an NPC in Mark’s Pathfinder Campaign. Be forewarned, there are mature themes and naughty language below. – – – – – – – – – – – Something hit the desk beside her elbow, sending…
Night, Light’s Enemy
You know, it was just a few days ago when I wrote about how disenchanted I was becoming with everything I was writing, had written, was thinking about writing… Today, I am excited again. Today, I am getting super-psyched about a character and I want to…
Insanity 2013: It is OVER!
OMG. This is why I’m in trouble at work. Lack of attention to detail – which is odd, because that is something I’ve long prided myself on. At any rate, I totally forgot to update the placeholder post with my actual thoughts and such on NaNo…
Insanity 2013: Day Twenty-Eight
Okay – slightly early, its only Day Twenty-Seven, but I wanted to keep my odd-days going. So there. We’ll check up again on 12-1. I might finish with fifty thousand words after all. Might. But it won’t be the complete novel I was hoping for. Tons of work, dozens…

Insanity 2013: Day Seven
Ahoy – November 7th! I am totally fubar. So far behind. By day 7, my total should be north of 11k. My real goal was to be north of 15k. My reality is just over 5k, with the frustrating fact that more than 50% of what…
Insanity 2013: Day One
Look, its November 1st. And I’m an NaNo’er. Which means, in short, that I shall be in short supply for the thirty days that follow this post. I may or may not have RPs to post, I cannot post snippets of my piece as I write under a pseudonym,…
Inspiration
Everyone asks their favorite writer – where do you get your inspiration? As a writer, my answer is always something along the line of this: life. Lame, I know, right? But it is true. Everything I see, I do, I experience, I hear. It can make…
