Publishing

Hey there, guys. I was just looking around google and trying to find some information about publishing our stuff. Most of the websites either warn against scams, or are scams. I tend to shrink away from self-publishing, but that may be something that we have to think about. I swore that I would never, ever pay to have my writing published, but I ( Read more... )

Rainbow Children

This one was inspired by my mission trip to Peru, and it just kind of came. It originally was in one long stanza, and I'm not totally sure about the formatting, so if you have any suggestions about that, they're totally welcome. Thanks ( Read more... )

I wrote this a super long time ago, probably three years. I wrote it for my Grandpa, who died three years ago today. I don't know that it's any good, but I felt like it would be appropriate to post it and see what you guys thought. If you don't like it, don't worry, I can take constructive critisism- I won't get mad even though this is kind of a ( Read more... )

that brings me to 19 submissions total. by all means tell me which ones we can weed out and which I should write more of. about half of those (especially the rhymed ones) were written over four years ago.
