'm a little teapot short and stout - here is my handle - here is my spout!

Hey! Long time and miss chatting with you in chat! Hope you are okay. We used to talk about swords and guns and such.

The method of sevens: 1 - basic grammar, punctuation, flow 2 - editor 3 - go over edits and correct then check for plot holes 4 - editor 5 - go over second round of edits and correct 6 - final check by editor 7 - go over third edits and correct and final read through Yes, I have finished 3...

In my world, I do merge firearms into the storyline, but only when my MC and supporting cast travel by boat to another land. There, they encounter people who have no magic abilities but use firearms. I have modeled them after the Spanish Conquistadors so it's not too futuristic and still a bit...

I have been in a few funks when it comes to writing and can feel where you are right now. Sure, quitting would be fine and dandy, but it could be that you need a new creative outlet or just need to let writing cool off and do something else. Find a new thing to do or go back to something you...

I haven't had a vacation in three years so I do enjoy them when I get them. Just didn't think I'd not get any writing done.

So I was planning a week long vacation with my family and my plan was to write each day before going down for breakfast and again after we had arrived back at the hotel and my son was crashed for the night. That was the plan. Now for what really happened. Day 1 (my wife and I arrived...
