“The Final Ending” started out as a simple fairy tale in a space opera setting. A princess needs to be rescued. A prince, pirates, even a dragon, floated into the story and I thought to myself ‘who on earth would write something like this’ (aside from me), and then the writer became part of the … Continue reading

Writing Wednesday: Pick Your Poison
Progress from last week: Made my three blog posts as usual, as well as my quota of comments on other blogs.

Last week I managed to spend time on all seven days (helps that … Continue reading
