The Dead Mule School of Southern Literature

I will create a page of rules and constraints - and a sign up email or chat room ... I'm thinking writers get to keep the NBC for 5(?) days and then mail it to next person on list. There will be a page limit (it'll be hand written) and illustrations are encouraged. We'll make a special area on either FB or the Mule... gotta' work out The Kinks (you really got me going) and details, so I'm open to suggestions. The Mule will purchase the "novel", the bound paper and begin the novel.

Writers will have to stick to story line and characters - details will be at front of book. This way the novel doesn't go all over the place and stays true to its concept or outline.

The Mule wouldn't dictate story arc or that type of constraints, it just needs to stay on track with the general idea put forth in beginning. That's a problem IOUMA novel seems to have...... See More

but I'm thinking about adding some black and white photos every 10 pages or so, to add interest and to spark imagination.

ummm, might need bigger box, the next size up, the $4.95 one is rather small.

Another high quality issue! Congrats on a fine job, Helen! I particularly liked the work of Peggy Heinrich, Neal Whitman, and that kid Jozef. Write on!

Thanks, Joseph. You ain't no slouch yourself. :)

Patience is a virtue I'm still working hard to achieve!!!!

Poets are going to have to be patient, too. The Mule is full through January, and we're looking for Black History Month poems for February. Response will be slow for a bit.

I need to write my dead mule story. Because, of course, I have one.

Bryon, start today!

Yea!!! We love our Mule. I'm going out in a bit. Think I'll wear my Mule shirt, too.

Well, feel welcome Sandra. We're a family at the Mule.

I am proud to be part of this family!
