“The Cabin” by E.C.

October 30, 2013

This story is from my 8-year-old sister, who really wanted to write a ghost story for this site.  Again, it’s a little over 1,000 words, but frankly I was just impressed that she could write so much! —– A family were packing to drive to their cabin in the southern California mountains for Halloween.  The […]

October 29, 2013

Look, guys, I GOT STUFF DONE TODAY! OK, I don’t actually have anything to show you, but I am still happy. Almost done with character profiles: Once that’s finished, I can move on to outlining. Wooo! (I actually do love it, that isn’t a sarcastic “woo”) I kind of have a goal about starting with […]

“The Worst Birthday Ever” by W.C.

October 29, 2013

This story comes to you from my 10-year-old brother.  It’s longer than 1,000 words, but I decided not to give him a hard time over that because, well, it’s pretty awesome! —– I was running to class because I was late for a test, I guess Friday the thirteenth luck had kicked in. When I […]

Day 11: 90 Day Writing Challenge

October 28, 2013

Oh, it’s a “challenge” alright. I only slept 3 hours last night, so I’m calling in crazy on this day–nothing got done (actually, a fair amount of freelance work got done, which is AMAZING, considering), and I am full of dead. HOWEVER…I am almost positive that tomorrow, I will be able to actually pull myself […]

Day 10: 90 Day Writing Challenge

October 28, 2013

Day 10! Isn’t that like a milestone or something?? Maybe it would be if I’d gotten more done… But, as it stands, it’s 3:30am and I am only now going to bed.  So. …Yeah, I got nothing.  Later, guys. I’ll try to fail less this week.

Day 9: 90 Day Writing Challenge

October 27, 2013

Aaand we’re 1/10 of the way done with this thing. Today I wrote a bit (about 550 words), and also continued on my character profiling.  Slow going, but that’s what happens when you’re overly thorough and a hopeless perfectionist. Again, I have to be careful not to let profiling become something I fall into, cycling […]

Day 8: 90 Day Challenge

October 25, 2013

I have succumb to being dead today, and thus no work–LITERALLY no work–has gotten done. I tried to hang pictures earlier. I managed to, but I almost died as a result. Also, sitting up staring at the computer screen is making my head spin, so this is going to have to end soon. OK that’s […]
