“Writing is like driving at night in the fog. You can only see as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.” ― E.L. Doctorow I came across this quote today, and thought it quite aptly described what I’m going through with this Neeka story that’s become my Tuesday obsession.…
This dangerous Black Dragon by artist American artist Kekai Kotaki is in honor of tonight’s Walking Dead episode — it was a tense and ominous hour with an unforgettable ending, and I can’t wait until next Sunday’s 90-minute season finale! There is a lot more beautiful art at Kekai’s site, including some amazing fantasy landscapes, and also art from Guild…
Go slowly. Love your story. It will wait for you. ~ Allan G. Hunter Happy Wednesday, everyone! This bit of writerly wisdom comes from the blog of fellow writer Rosanna at Writing on the Pages of Life. I found her site through last week’s Discover Challenge — she submitted a wonderful piece called “Zen and the Art…
Today’s Discover Challenge is Snapshots, and I’ll let the idea speak for itself… In a guest post on Jenna Schwartz’s blog, writer Andrea Jarrell told a powerful personal story about coming into her voice. … Rather than summarizing how she felt at a particular age or telling us about her year generally, she narrows the focus of each…

Greetings everyone! Check out this nifty set of bookend dragons I found, initially through a post on the blog Hobbit Feet, and for sale at the website design Toscano. I had planned to do a WIP post on Saturday but I got caught up in writing, which didn’t go quite as smoothly as I’d hoped,…
Today’s writing quote comes from the always amazing J.K. Rowling: “The idea of just wandering off to a cafe with a notebook and writing and seeing where that takes me for awhile is just bliss.” She said this in an interview she gave just a few days after the release of the final Harry Potter…
It took forever for The Daily Post to update their Discover Challenge page and give us the first weekly challenge, but now that they have, it’s pretty exciting! Today’s is called Blogging the Senses, with a short prompt post to read by Cheri Lucas Rowlands, who “recently interviewed Erik Kwakkel, a book historian in Leiden, Netherlands,…
Today I found an idea that really intrigued me, so I went looking for an “intrigued” dragon picture and came across this absolutely stunning painting by Chinese freelance concept artist Xiaodi Jin.
