Exploring the Places No One is Talking About
The prompt for this week was birds in any context. Maybe something about a specific bird, maybe birds aren’t real, maybe about bird Pokemon. Keltin wrote about blue jays, one group member wrote about swans and how they are represented in myth and media. Another group member wrote a short little horror piece about crows.
This was the prompt for my first official week as club leader. It was supposed to be the week of the Haikus but the weather made us cancel. This prompt was to write a story from the point of view of an NPC from a book, movie, or game; pretty much any piece of media.

Western Spirit: Museum of the West is in Scottsdale. This museum is a little expensive ($28 per adult) but the guided tours are included. The tours are a bit odd, they only tour 1/3 of the museum at a time. That being said, you can go on back-to-back tours to have a guided tour of

It has been a while since I’ve done a series review! The last book in this trilogy was recently released and having finished them all I thought I’d give you all my thoughts. Synopsis: A curmudgeonly professor journeys to a small town in the far north to study faerie folklore and discovers dark fae magic,
So this was an odd and fun prompt. The prompt was to write about an obscure topic that we enjoyed. Yes, my topic of choice is weird but history and nature are weird. This is as much history lesson as it is writing prompt. I hope you enjoy it and I would love to know
This is not the first time I have been to monument rocks but that first visit was several years ago. It was ridiculously cold and windy. I was very excited to have a chance to go again – especially with the film cameras. I do not remember what film I was using on this adventure,
Life throws us interesting curve balls. A little over two years ago Keltin and I joined the Denton Writing Club on a whim as a chance to explore creative writing with like-mined people.
