sharing life through words
Hello.
We have created this journal in the hope you might share your fiction. The idea is to take time each day to write.
Feel free to offer anything, be it an on-going story, a short piece of fiction, a poem, a riddle, or whatever takes your fancy.
Some days we might offer prompt words, ideas or directions, which you can employ or ignore. This is simply to encourage more writing, more criticism, and more of a word-based community.
Anything you want to see posted should be sent to the email link posted on this page; this account will be checked for submissions twice a day and then posted as soon as possible.
In your email, please specifiy the following:
- whether you want your writing to be posted publicly or privately (note: if you choose to write privately, the group name and password will be emailed to you)
- if your writing is a stand alone piece or part of a bigger project, to be posted in segments
- whether you would like a link posted to your blog or website.
CAUTIONARY NOTE: Please treat others and their stories as you would like to be treated. Constructive and respectful criticism is appreciated, as are comments praising a person's writing.
We hope you feel like joining in. It really is as easy as:
(1) write your words
(2) email them via the email link on this page
(3) comment on posted stories
(4) repeat above.
Happy writing!

Untitled Part V, by Shennanigans
He does not want to remember, he realizes that at this moment. His memory has been helping him – allowing him to forget, but his mind has taken him too far to erase it again.
*****
Her song-like prayers have become more urgent. She knows she made her choice when she decided to be with him. This has become her burden, and her blessing. He may not realize it now, but she will be the one to help him.
She hopes to help him understand.
“Each one who has faced this before me must have had the same questions – Will I be strong enough? Will I be able to achieve what I need to, for him, for me, for powers above us? Am I really worthy to do this?,” she questions everything she has learned from her life and her faith.
“Yes,” she tells herself with a feeling of relief and nervousness.
She knows this is the path of life, the order of things, and that no matter what questions or doubts she has, it is for her to follow him. Any other way, and she may only end up hurting him.
Her soul feels as if it is becoming a candle, burning brighter than ever before. She tenses for a moment, relaxing back into herself and the peace that has always followed her.
All she can do is listen to the ticking of the clock as time passes...
