Al Ellis I am thankful, but I'm recovering from a catastrophic computer failure on my Web machine. My writing machine, which has never been and will never be on the Web, is, thankfully, fine.

Tom Kip Jalio This quote should be every writer’s
anthem: “Put it before them briefly so they will read it, clearly so
they will appreciate it, picturesquely so they will remember it and, above all,
accurately so they will be guided by its light.” Joseph Pulitzer

They are right...just put pen to paper or start typing. Also...if you want to write...you have to read. Expose yourself to several different things, situations, and people. Just have faith in yourself and start your journey... :)

I find using going through the "dares" posts on NaNoWriMo helpful. Sometimes the dares are so wacky that they sometimes spark a idea.

Writing.Com gives a shout out to all the Nano'ers! 7 days left. It all comes down to this final stretch! Remember: Nano's an inspiration writing exercise. If you started but decided you're not going to make it, so why bother? Because it's not whether you win or lose, but how you play the game! Finish strong! Good talk, Te...am... now can we get a "like"??

I am at 38765 words so far. Hopefully I can have some quiet time for a write-in and get the thing finished.

Cynthia Davis

Cynthia Davis started writing as a child to express what I couldn't growing up during the "children are to be seen and not heard," era. I had to be heard one way or another, it has proved to serve me on two levels one being heard and two very therapeutic. I never go anywhere without a tablet or pen. I am because I write.....

Hi Jaya! I know myself, I get this feeling a lot. But you should write no matter what. You never know how it will turn out. Sometimes we are our own worst critics.

I am the same way. What I do at work is "day dream" about the story in my head and on breaks take notes and then put them all together when I get home and continue it. I find writing in the morning never works but after work I find it relaxing.

Today we're going to look at how some sentence structures work (and don't work) when the sentence (or sentence fragment) is part of a poem. Mostly we're going to look at what happens with noun phrases.

TODAY IS THE NATIONAL DAY OF MOURNING AS DECLARED BY THE PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT. BUT THE PEOPLE OF MINDANAO IS ALREADY STRESSED OUT AND TIRED OF ENDLESS MOURNING. WE MOURN NOT BECAUSE OF THE DEATHS BUT BECAUSE JUSTICE HAS NEVER BEEN ATTAINED. THE PEOPLE WILL FIGHT BACK...AT ALL COST. TYRANNY HAS TO END.
