Revelry Island: Maintenance Men One – Chapter One (WIP)

Savannah Tapping endlessly on the screen wasn’t working. An error pops up. “No internet… ?” Raising my voice, I stretch just enough to get a glimpse of my host. “Leo, your internet is down.” I tap the screen a few more times, regardless. Glutton for punishment? Sometimes. “No, I turned...

Adventures in Writing: Spinning Stories

Spinning Stories are like Spinning Spider Webs. Or so I’m saying. I don’t know, I just say the things that pop into my head, okay? Then something connects and I get a beautifully woven web, but usually for others it seems. I cannot seem to get my ass writing erotica....

Adventures in Writing: Life Lemons

Yes, I meant to write Life Lemons. Life throws lemons, you gotta catch them and make something out of them, right? That’s what we try to do. That’s what I’ve been trying to do. If you’ve been around, you know I’ve been struggling to write for over a year. I’ve...

Adventures in Writing: The Dangers of Lip Gloss

Adventures in Writing: Pushing Through Pain

Pushing through pain isn’t always the best option but sometimes there isn’t a choice. Straight talk – I do not understand how people suffering from chronic pain get through everyday life. Let me tell you… I feel pain but only when I overdo it and strain myself. I know chronic...

Adventures in Writing: Soak it in the Muse Juice

Yes, I said it again. And I’ll keep saying it. MUSE JUICE. I don’t know where the fuck it came from, but apparently my brain has latched on like a leech in a precarious area you can’t quite reach. If someone tells you they’re having a difficult time writing, believe...

Wicked Wednesday: So Bad, So Good

Adventures in Writing: Lifeblood of Wordsmiths

Writers take from the reality around them and turn it into words. Sometimes the words are real truthy things and other times they are fantastically fictional. Either way, sometimes it can be hard to get those words flowing. That’s when you can find something to inspire you. A word, an...
