Writing Adventure Group Theme #26 – Fish out of Water

Just like last week, time was tight and I felt the shadow of this weeks deadline falling upon me. When I read the Writers Adventure Group prompt, I had an idea come to mind that I intended to run with. The base is there but I wasn’t able to explore it as deeply as I [...]

Memoirs of an Assassin #2 – Score a Point for Dear Old Dad

Last week I posted my submission for Fiction Friday, created by Write Anything, to follow a prompt of a knock at the door. The piece turned into the tale of an assassin on his first assignment from a new employer. I enjoyed writing it and thought forward as to how it could be expanded in [...]

Fiction Friday #159 – The First of Many

Have you ever started writing with a plan in place, then had your story begin telling itself, getting farther and farther from your plan? In this weeks Fiction Friday prompt from Write Anything, I had just that. My plan was to have a much shorter piece that was more to the point. As I placed [...]

Writing Adventure Group Theme #25 – Crimes and Misdemeanors

One of these weeks I really should try to get the Writing Adventure Group exercise finished up with time to spare. The rough draft was written a couple of nights ago but I hadn’t had the time to read and revise until my lunch break today. Like usual, it turned into more of a re-write [...]

Fiction Friday #158 – All Grown Up

Over the past couple of weeks I’ve been feeling like I’ve been stuck in a Fiction Friday funk. Staring at the Write Anything prompt this week for “A Coming of Age Tale”, I was drawing an absolute blank. It was suggested a couple of weeks ago that I re-work Fiction Friday #156 – Failed Sunrise [...]

Fiction Friday #157 – Quiet Warning

As they say, better late than never. I’m kind of anal when it comes to post times. I like to have these scheduled to go live at midnight, but that was not an option today. I’ve been dragging me feet on this Fiction Friday prompt from Write Anything. For one reason or another, it just [...]

Writing Adventure Group Theme #23 – Ripples

With the dawn of a new week, we have a brand new Writing Adventure Group (#WAG) theme. Like usual, when I saw the theme I drew a complete blank. I had no idea what direction I wanted to go and wound up putting this post on the back burner for a time. The day before [...]

A Trip to Gently Used Books

On Saturday, my wife and I made plans that had us rising from bed at an early hour. I had a few errands to run and my wife had some shopping to do. Before any of that was to start, we headed out to have breakfast at Michael’s Diner in Douglassville. Once we were fed, [...]

Fiction Friday #156 – Failed Sunrise

In this weeks edition of Fiction Friday, from Write Anything, we were given the prompt “A boy and his father awaken early to watch the sunrise from their mountain campsite, but they begin to panic when the sky remains dark long into the afternoon”. At first I was eager to get started, because of all [...]
