An Old Painting As A Writing Prompt?

Surfing the internet isn’t always a waste of time. I was looking for something when I ran across the image of an old painting, namely ‘Gothic Church Ruins’, painted by Carl Blechen in 1826. (And yes, I’m permitted to use the picture for free without copyright problems, since the copyright has been ‘outdated’). However, that’s not the question at this moment. Earlier this year, namely in March,…

Give them a few quirks. Characters, like real people, should have little things that make them unique. Everything from a favorite food or color to a superstition or pet peeve. If you can show…

READERS: don't forget THIS way to help support your favorite authors (especially indie authors)!!!

This evening, I was going to submit an interlibrary loan request (basically my library borrows it from another library) for a book by one of my favorite indie authors. Before I submitted my request, I checked WorldCat (an online database of books available at libraries nationwide) to see how close of a library had the book. The closest library on that database that had a copy of that book was in…

New Year, New Goals #IWSG

Welcome to 2024, Everyone! Guess what?! I finished my zero draft of Isto before my end-of-year, self-imposed deadline! Here’s a little animation I made of me and Derek dancing in celebration. (It’s my first animation, so please excuse the poor quality.) Having completed the rough draft of version 6, I now move on to editing. This means rewriting Cameron’s POV. His timeline doesn’t flow well with…

LATE #IWSG

SO LATE! APOLOGIES! We’re getting ready to leave the country for a much-needed vacation, consumed by tiny details—I’m pre-packing (or pre-fretting) and then start over again, creating lists, trying to make everything fit… Happy 12th anniversary to IWSG! I first heard of IWSG quite a bit ago—no more than 10 years ago, anyway. I knew some writers who participated with their blogs. I never joined…

In My Dresser Drawer

I’m a writer. And an author. A reluctantly published author. I’m disappointed with myself in that way. If I wasn’t reluctant to publish, I’d do it more. If I wasn’t reluctant to publish, I’d shout to the world that I love to write stores. If I wasn’t reluctant to publish, I’d share my stories far and wide. (more…) “”

The Sad Retirement Of A Tradition

When I was a kid, I watched my parents carefully marking their days and appointments on an agenda. Back then, you got these 2022 ‘agendas’ from your bank, the butcher’s shop, or some other company that used them for advertisement. I always wanted my own ‘agenda’, despite me being only 4 years old and going to Kindergarten. Since I grew up in a so-called well-protected parental home (and I’m very…

this week's podcast: novelist grady hendrix on writing

this week’s podcast: novelist grady hendrix on writing

This week’s episode of Thousand Movie Project Podcast arrives a day late cuz it’s extra special, and a bit of a leap from my comfort zone, featuring, in its latter three quarters, my hourlong conversation with horror novelist Grady Hendrix. His most recent novel is Final Girl Support Group, which I reviewed here (loved it), and next month he’s releasing a book of non-fiction, called These Fists…
