 | Dreaming Moon | Just another Human | Poetry | Poetry | 8 | 0.63 | May 17, 2013 |
Summary:All of my productions will be full of imperfections. I know I have to work on many things such as punctuation. I write solely to get out my thoughts that get cramped in my head often, causing headaches. This is why I often have grammatical and punctuation errors. I do the best I can to revise, but my depression allows me to focus on so much at a time. Bare with me if you'd like. Hope you enjoy my perspective.Chapters: |

Summary:OKAY.. Hit me hard as Shakespeare did visit and this is what poured out and I mean poured out! It is a ten minute or less write and I haven't a clue from where it came...
Maybe I should begin to entertain the belief in muses even if they might be old rusty ones??? Do not ask me to remove the 'woe' or any old fashion term as Willy might get pissed.
Only kidding..

Summary:Is anyone out there as tired as I am of the commercials they play with the nightly news? Ugh! Medicine for heart failure, COPD, urinary urgency and... what's with the bathtub scenes in the Cialis commercials? I never have gotten that one figured out.

 | A Poem For Vincent | flowing pencil | Poetry | Poetry | 16 | 0.37 | Jul 25, 2010 |
Summary:Yesterday I had fun! Silly piece for those who know my beserkness. Not a word but that is fitting!
This is a piece I have been working on for weeks and struggling. I am afraid it shows but tweaked it a bit last evening.
When one does a piece in honor of another to me it should represent their best.
Is this there? No! Will it ever be? Not sure it is possible. Why this piece of art has so moved me I haven't a clue unless it is the darkness this man lived in at times and my own small pits I have visited.
Serious input is welcomed. Sometimes that open the mind to see your own work more clearly and can tweak the thinking.Chapters: |
 | Death in the Forest | pannastra | Short Story | Flash Fiction | 7 | 0.31 | May 17, 2010 |
Summary:My writing penchant is humour, so this one is unusual for me, but had to be written. Whether I should have posted it on tNBW is another matter.
I find the saturation promotional advertising of up-coming tv programs to be extremely irritating. One in particular that was doing the rounds really p'd me off. As I lay in bed one night trying to sleep I got quite incensed. I could not sleep until I had grabbed my laptop computer and wrote down what was bounding around inside my skull.
This is the result.Chapters: |

 | Fireflies In A Mason Jar | Sideman | Short Story | Other | 8 | 0.46 | Jul 25, 2008 |
Summary:I wrote this a number of years ago. My wife is from Bakersfield, Califirnia where fireflies are only a rumor or a myth. When I drug her to St. Louis, she was in awe of the "lightning bugs". I started telling her about my childhood experiences with those little fly by night critters. That evening I sat down an wrote this. That was in late 1997.
I wasn't sure if this should be regarded as a memoir or not, so I put it in the "other" genre. Any thoughts about that?
I am posting this with the hope that you might enjoy it and offer any comments about ways to make it more engaging or flow more smoothly. I want it to be a casual read that leaves the reader with slight smile or a warm feeling. I am not an educated writer. I am open to any and all comments and suggestions. Thanks!Chapters: |
