Kid Lit 2 weeks, 5 days agoAs a primary teacher, I’m always excited to find just the right book to model and teach writing strategies to children. I’m looking forward to this challenge, hoping that I might write a book that I would be proud to use in my classroom!

Kid Lit: 1 year agoI jump right into stories and let them take me places. I have never been much of a planner and I cannot count the number of times I have started a story and it went in a completely opposite direction from when I started.

Yes I’d like to blame my sporadic writing today on Sherlock. Not on the quick errand that took nearly five hours, not the two hour lounge beneath the apple tree, and not the time wasting of rebuilding a forgotten […] -

The wooden pew creaked under her weight as she shifted to get a handkerchief from her purse. With exactly forty-four votive candles twinkling on the tabernacle, the place was beginning to heat. Our Lady of Lourdes […]

Vat wrote a new post, Back Staircase, on the site words and whispers 7 hours, 38 minutes ago
The back staircase coiled up in the narrow space next to the chimney. It was warm, there, even when the rest of the great house was frigid with winter. It was quiet, when the floors squeaked and groaned and the […]

Mordisqueaba concienzudamente la onza de chocolate que le habían puesto para acompañar el café con leche. Arrancaba trocitos minúsculos con sus pequeños dientes afilados, como uno de esos roedores que se ven en […]

There were not many cars on the roads. After all, how many people traverse the roads to office on holiday. He was impatiently waiting for the light to turn green. He was getting late for the meeting. Those […]

Another story resulting from a random prompt generator (two people who dislike each other in the back of a cab). This one suffers, I think, from lack of content in the actual story. I think it would make a decent […]

This story came from a random prompt generator that suggested taking two random sentences from a book, with one becoming the first sentence and the other the last. These sentences came from ”The World’s Best […]
