To the Tearful Eye

To the Tearful Eye, I know how you cry.In the dark and all alone.Throughout life, troubles are sewn.They catch you off guard and at your peak. They’ll break you and convince you you’re nothing but weak.You can listen to them–every word that they say,And let the Darkness swallow you away. But let your Light shineContinue reading “To the Tearful Eye”

Cheetah’s Adventure pt. 1

“Hey! Nikki! I got an idea!!!” Fright nearly makes me lose my skin when Cheetah comes running up so fast. The gust built by his speed scatters the papers on my desk. I take a deep breath. I just organized these. Those papers were for the 401k, that paper pertained to my story, and IContinue reading “Cheetah’s Adventure pt. 1”

Writing Prompt: Thief of Slumber

What keeps you from a good night’s sleep? A lingering whisper creeps into your mind. Your worst fears paint it’s breath. A scenario. A situation. A “what if” that could happen. You’re not good enough. Not pretty enough. Not enough to be a precious life. The monster isn’t under your bed or in the closet.Continue reading “Writing Prompt: Thief of Slumber”

Character Interviews

Part of being a writer is crafting characters. It’s one of my favorite parts of story building. As a fiction fantasy writer, you can get away with most anything as long you can find a way to make it make sense. You could build a character who’s knowledgeable beyond their years. Or a character whoContinue reading “Character Interviews”

Writing Prompt: A View From Others

Think about a time you were in public. Describe yourself from the point of view of someone else. “Oh, Oscar, don’t look now, but I think someone got stood up,” Viv chuckles as she takes a sip of her cocktail. The bar is pretty active tonight, but it was no surprise for a Saturday. MostContinue reading “Writing Prompt: A View From Others”

Wildfire

Heat radiating and raging harshly.Destruction everywhere.The flames licked the trees, the leafs, and the life away.Devastation reigned in fiery chaos. Blackened ashes rise, dead.Roaring coals rocketed from the flames,Spreading the destruction across its wake.Faster and faster life perishes. Flee! Habitants, the forest drops defeated!Run for water, run for cover, run for your very lives!There isContinue reading “Wildfire”

Wastin’ Time

To the style of “Sitting on the Dock of the Bay” by Otis Redding Sittin’ on the dock of the lake,Watching the waves coming from the wakes.Got the sun shining down on me,It’s so nice to be carefree,Wastin’ time. Little ducklings come from the reeds,Looking for sweet, sweet green peas.Got the blue gills nibble atContinue reading “Wastin’ Time”

Fun With Imagination

Taps and puffs come through the microphone as a feline nose sniffs against it. Cheetah, an anthropomorphic feline, blinks curiously at it before testing the sound again with his paw. “It’s on.” He grins and his pointed teeth flash in the faint studio light. Cheetah slides himself up on the stool and glances over hisContinue reading “Fun With Imagination”
