Creative Writing
I have developed a lot of different pieces of writing over the years and I’m so glad to be able to share it with you here! Feel free to take a look at any of my works and I hope you find them enjoyable!
Writing Prompt: I’m Offended.
I don’t get offended easily–or at least, I like to think that I don’t. So, when considering the writing prompt: what’s the most offensive thing you have ever heard anyone say? Not a lot comes to mind. Sure, I could talk about something some political person or sports person or media whatnot said or IContinue reading “Writing Prompt: I’m Offended.”

A shout, a call, I’m seen.Panicking, I flee to the enemy,“Wrong way!” my team screams.But a thought, a plan, a hole’s my remedy. He fell, it worked! To my base I bolt.I ran, myContinue reading “Capture the Flag Poem”
Oh, To Be…
Oh, to be needed. Oh, to be wanted. Oh, to be something valued and spotted. But, not to be, and in misery Not a treasured part of the team. Built frustration. Lost connection. Everyone keeps you in isolation. Who to reach out? Who to care? Who to stop you from losing air? There’s complaint. There’sContinue reading “Oh, To Be…”
A Penny for Your Thoughts
Everyone has those random thoughts you have throughout the day. Something might be stuck on your chest that you just can’t shake off. Writing helps me shake things off and maybe checking out these random thoughts might help you? Sometimes, we don’t realize that other people can think or feel the same way about a topic that we might think is off the wall.
Breaking the News to Your Characters
So, how many of you writers out there like to view your characters as alive in their own right? You know they’re not real, but you still do exercises like having conversations with them to figure out what they like, how they grew up, or you even straight up ask them what they’re going toContinue reading “Breaking the News to Your Characters”

What’s a compliment you’ve received that really made your day? And I mean REALLY made your day.

For me, well, I’ve got a pretty specific memory that comes toContinue reading “Writing Prompt: Best Compliment”
Like Them
May I be honest? Something’s been bugging the back of mind for a while now and I’d like to just write it out. Allow me to share my thoughts and I think everyone will find that they can relate. Have you ever met someone who is just awesome? You introduce, become friends, hang out, laugh,Continue reading “Like Them”

About Me
Hey, I’m Nikki! I am a nerdy geek who has a passion for writing, drawing, painting, and many other art media. Ever since I can remember, I’ve been crafting stories in my head whether they were original works or fanfictions. Over ten years ago, I started writing a novel and developing my skills as a writer, and, now, that novel is complete! I’m currently working on finding representation for it and turning my other stories into future novels! I do consider myself a Christian writer, but most of my stories are all fantasy and sci-fi based. Read more...
