Sig u turd 5.9 miles is still a lot especially when three quarters of it was any where from slightly uphill to insanely uphill

Also my back is extremely inflamed and I am out of shape also my hamstring cramped so it was really hard okay

And I weigh 260 lbs so it’s not easy

Bumping in to say hello - that we're still open. Still desolate and starving, but open for submissions. :3

Writing problems

Me: How long does it take for a dead body to smell?

Me: What language shall I write my novel in?

Me: UGH TOO MANY CHARACTERS

Me: Where did my coffee go

Me: This character's favorite food should be Mac and cheese. No, it should be steak.

Me: *writes two words* aaaah what a good work day.

Me: *kills off too many characters*

Me: How do I even describe a field? There was green grass and trees and fuck you.

Me: Let's play a game called IN WHICH CITY WAS NAPOLEON BORN

Me: (pet's name), why must you come back inside now, I am writing.

Me: Oh yes, I'll write a story about a love story between a young girl and her much older father figure OH SHIT NO LOLITA BY VLADIMIR NABOKOV

Me: *Falls asleep on my keyboard*

Me: I hope someone will write fanfiction about these two

Me: Editing

Me: How shall I describe this facial expression

Me: Why can't everyone in the house be dead while I'm writing?

Me: No mom, I'm not pregnant, I'm looking for character names.

Me: Who took my coffee

Me: SLEEP SLEEP SLEEP

Me: I have so many unused ideas in this notebook that I could sell them.

Me: Tumblr vs Productivity

Hello my lovelies!

It's Sig here again. It's Friday. It's warm for a rainy day. 

I just wanted to say that summer is among us in the Northern Hemisphere (well, it is over here on the West Coast of 'Murica), and that generally sprouts creativity. So feel absolutely free to send us your stuff. First draft; sixth draft; millionth draft - it's all good. As long as it meets the criteria for submissions, and you've read the FAQ, it's welcome.

On the note where I said I'd be adding to the pot: I am working on the piece for this week. Last week ran into this week, fast, with the weather and everyone's new schedules.

We're still looking forward to others' work. In fact, we yearn for it. We are depraved of the beauty that is the new name; the rhythm of the unknown artist. The surprise of the greeting that is two worlds colliding. We are waiting to hear from you. Don't be shy if you so can help it. We aren't here to judge your work. We're here to enjoy and share. 

Make it a goal to send us at least one summer (or not so summer) piece before the end of summer!

~Sig

Terrible accident in their

add four words and make a story

Hello That concludes my announcement Love, Mary

[when-the-words-fall]

The Terms

That is not a toy. Do not play, do not touch. That is not furniture. Do not push around, do not put your full weight upon. That is not trash. Do not heave or underestimate.

That is strong, resilient.

Not a wall, and not a door. Do not use, abuse, pass through, or frame. Not swayed by the wind, the pure force of a storm. The thunder, a god.

That is not a pet. There is no taming, no tricks, no obedience. That is love, not lust. That is a gentle caress, or a kiss good night. But not your own. That is a mother, a sister, a daughter, a friend.

That is a woman, and you do not dare disrespect. That is the best thing you will ever wish to know; an independent being, ready and willing to walk away.

End of week notes

I hope that for those of you with loving fathers out there are or were enjoying your day. It's come to the near close of my week, and I would like to make a few notes. One is that I'm keeping that promise I made earlier - I finished that piece (and I'm about to post it); yes, it's totally convenient that I'm posting it on my week. Who wouldn't?

The second- I'm going to try to keep a steady weekly posting of my own work. I am strongly encouraging all of you to join in. After all, my pieces are here as invitations, not as the main content.

Let us know if you have questions, preferably on this blog, but you can also check out and message us on our private blogs if you would like to address one of us specifically (links on homepage).

Mary here! Since I am at school I cannot post even on my main blog as much (finals are the worst). But as Sig said, we really want to see work. To make it more interesting sounding, I am genuinely interested in reading other people's work and always do when it shows up on my dash. Just a thought...... Love, Mary

[when-the-words-fall]

It is so early in the morning, it's hardly not still Mary's time as I'm typing this. Figured I'd check it out until my main's dash isn't so desperate and deprived, and perhaps someone will see this post. Therefore I should suppose this post isn't in the middle of the night here in America.  

I have seen so much passion and inspiration this past week and it makes me wonder, where are you guys? While Mary and I (and lovely Noah) are delighted to contribute to this blog, we are hoping that we will not be the only ones. 

I will be contributing once again (as I previously stated this past week), this week. So heads up! (Or not, because surprise is good?)

~Sig

Sorry guys but I haven't an ounce of inspiration this week because of finals and just overall done-ness. Sig's turn tomorrow, be nice!! Love, Mary

[when-the-words-fall]

Now that Sig is away, I will give you all candy because I am the cool mod..... Can't wait to see what's in store!! Love, Mary

[when-the-words-fall]

Hey just want to make a late-night shout-out and seeyer to the people out there. I am super later on giving a goodbye to my first week as mod of this super new, super squeaky clean blog of two weeks that would love your additions. This is a welcome back to Mary for the third week. This is a reminder that we are looking forward to the submissions you have for us. This is a reminder that we do want you to let us know if you have questions, and don't hesitate to submit a story or poem to us (but please read the FAQ and submit first)!

~Sig

Don't starve me, o sacred one Don't slay me in the cold I stand here, an obedient child, yet you never did do what you were told.
