!Tood, Ad, Tood, Tood

Hmm..I probably should have made a bigger deal about the last chapter I posted being the last chapter I am going to post.  Tee hee - silly blogger. 

So here is a little reverse fanfare (with added cheese so you will have to like it) Delicious-no?


What could possible follow a giant can 'o cheeze? Good question! I have been scooting all over the internwebnets checking out how my fellow Write Campaigners do their thing. 

Inspiring. Nerdy. Delightful.

As I scoot I have been learning what I do and don't like as a blog reader and filling my brain bucket full of ideas. 

I started this blog to share my writing adventures with friends and family and I will keep up with that. For the rest of my birdies, I am thinking book reviews, theatre skills for the writer, and probably some other silliness. 

What would you like to see?

Fun! I act and direct and write as well. I guess you could say that we live in a fictional world ;)

Fellow campaigner, just stopping by to say, "Hi!"

Ooooh, I like these ideas, particularly the one about theatre tips for the writer. One of the things that I've been trying to think more about in my own writing is using body language to convey emotion and whatnot -- sort of going back to the idea of "showing versus telling."

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. Thanks again for swinging by my blog!

MORE CHEESE! Lol... I totally had to do that - one of my bloggy friends, who incidentally is also named Crystal, is a self-confessed cheese addict! Lol... I, too, would like to cast my vote in for those theatre tips for the writer! :-)

I only just started this whole blogging thing a few months ago, and I completely agree with you about all this campaign blog hopping really showing me what does and doesn't work. Hopefully with all this new-found knowledge I can get my blog in the "does" column!

Gussying Up

Wanted things to look nice around here as I joined the Platform Building Campaign over at Rach Writes . It's a crash course in this whole network and blog world and I thought it would be a great way to jump into the deep end with my hot pink water wings firmly in place. Plus, I get a sweet badge for participating and you know I like that kind of business! So shiny! Now we mingle, play blogging games, and scratch each other's blogs between the ears. As I am used to collaborating with many artists at a time in my day job, this will be a welcomed boost to only collaborating with the voices in my head. Not that they aren't entertaining. Oooo - don't be scared new writer friends. I am just as normal as you. Looking forward to meeting you in my courage zone (smooches to Bob Mayer ) Now I must finish my cow choreography.

Welcome To The Imago Tavern

T he place was dead as a windshield. She gave the bar top another pointless mirror polish and then she felt it. After all these years she could still sense when The Season began, not in her loins or her blood, but an echo deep in the lacuna of her exoskeleton. She lit a smoke, taking a satisfied gander at her retirement plan. She was long past fertile and now she had a different kind of vault to fill. This little hole-in-the-wall had been just the ticket. It was stocked and ready. Soon it would be crawling with every young bug in the city hopped up on hormones and grass clippings, filling the air with a miasma of pheromones thick enough to choke a lady cockroach and definitely turn one on. With oscitated jaws and frisky antennas, bugs would buy her booze and rub legs across the table until it was time to get to the propagating. Inevitably there would be one lone fellow left moping after the last pair skittered out. She’d eat him; head first this year. Some call it

Write Campaign First Challenge

Image
Here are the rules of the first challenge for the Write Campaign .  Write a short story/ flash fiction story in 200 words or less, excluding the title. It can be in any format, including a poem. Begin the story with the words, “The door swung open.” If you want to give yourself an added challenge (optional), use the same beginning words and end with the words: "the door swung shut." For those who want an even greater challenge, make your story 200 words EXACTLY!   I f you watched the video in my last post you KNOW I took both of the extra challanges.  Nerd power!!! Between The Rock and A Hard Place The door swung open, completing its dramatic arch and return, then slamming closed in her face. So much for slinking in unnoticed. Gingerly she tested the end of her nose, relieved when it did not wheeze like an accordion. The wood grain was quite lovely up close. In the long second before kissing oak, she’d glimpsed him sitting on the white couch surrou
