Like jinxedpoet, I've decided to do NaNoWriMo too!
If you want to check out what I've been working on, look me up. I'm posting the chapters of my novel on the LJ account nanojovo. Friend me if you want to see. :P -
That Way to Life
Being in Tulsa with Connor is like walking in a dream. Soon I'll have him in real life too. Graduation is in May. I'm still not sure how things will go, but I'll be in New York. It doesn't matter how it happens, or what I have to do, but we're going to do it.
I've never been with someone who I felt was really forever. We're the sort of people that ( Read more... ) -

An Experiment in Language
I'm using a slightly different and-I hope-superior style of writing for my newest short story, "Providence." Here's an excerpt. What do you think?
Every morning Sheridan carried herself to Our Lady of Fatima, where she prepared breakfast for the nuns that lived there. Mother Bridgett was very gracious, and every morning she would softly thank ( Read more... ) -
The Misery We Feel
This is one of the most amazing pieces of non-fiction writing that I've read on the Internet in recent times. It's a well-constructed argument, too, with references. Who uses references anymore?
