Random Writing Friday – Forever Home

As you can see by my new schedule, today is a Random Writing Friday, where I post a finished work I’ve written that may or may not have anything to do with Finding Dragons.  These will be the only days I don’t always use a dragon picture for my featured image. Today’s work is a short story…

A new roadmap for my blogging adventure…

Hello again, and thanks as always for reading my blog!  As I’ve been hinting lately, now that I’ve been at this for about a month, and I’ve gotten some great ideas from Blogging 101, and from reading other blogs and seeing their different structures, it’s time to announce some changes to my format here on Writing…

To share or not to share, that is the question…

So today I am still going to focus mainly on finishing the first chapter.  But I’ve been debating whether or not to share an excerpt with you lovely readers for a few days now, and I still haven’t come to a satisfying conclusion.  In fact, wondering which part to share of this chapter has made me even…
