    A quick Slamjam postmortem note

    So, the creator of one of the OCs I wrote about just about flipped his lid at me because I gave his character a gay shipping story, ruining his message of platonic bromance and emotionally vulnerable heterosexual dudes.

    Part 1: Poetry

    “But I hate poetry” well that’s because you’re doing it wrong. A poem of the type that we were told to write in this class is just a short, condensed piece of work that shows who you are and what you do as a writer.

    Lesson 0: Learn the rules before you break them

    I know full well that I'm talking down to a lot of people in this post--my excuse is that writing it out is also a way for me to refresh the lessons in my own mind. Story tags are because I plan to go back and "grade myself" based on my own advice as i write these.

    All is right in ponydom

    I know, I said I would do a thing, and then I didn't.

    I will. I promise. Next post.

    But first, I need to share this with you: a friend has informed me that One Terrible Writer has posted all of his stories, previously thought to be lost forever, on fanfiction.net.

    Knighty HATES him! Honolulu-area baker reveals how to improve your writing with 3 simple rules!

    I’ve seen it a few times, and you probably have too: people will say stuff along the lines of “I bet this person took a community college course in creative writing and now they think they're so great.” It’s a very resonant insult for classists like me. Besides, it’s rooted in fact: the level of literacy needed to pass community college courses in this town is miserably low.

A change of pace · 4:40am Aug 21st, 2012

Those of you who liked "Homeward" really oughta read "Cloudborn."

Man I'm just terrible with titles. I just threw "Homeward" on because it needed a title besides "GildaShy" and now I hate that name. "Cloudborn" at least had some thought put into it; it conveys what I want it to.

I wasn't thinking, so I posted this at a time that's early evening for me but half past stupid o'clock for most ameribronies, so it probably won't get seen. Damn. Well, for those of you who are interested, Cloudborn has been updated with a happy fun chapter that's... you'll see. Have a look!

I'm thinking of writing something else, while I work on how to move forward with Cloudborn. The next thing you'll see me write will, more likely than not, be a hardcore mean-spirited tearjerker. I've never written one of those before, so it'll be fun! Fun for me to write, that is--I always enjoy broadening my horizons.

Man, I've never written something with the intent to HURT the audience. I'm so looking forward to this.
