Somehow I seem to write better--or at least get the ideas flowing more smoothly--in the update field than anywhere else, even a blank Word document. I wonder why this is?

( An exercise in dialogue. Tane and Ayivva. )

Continuing with the theme of writing my Creative Writing assignments on lj:

The assignment for today was to write a character-introduction scene, introducing both character and conflict. I decided to play with Enoch again. I'm fairly sure I haven't succeeded at introducing either character or conflict--the body-finding scene did better at that, I ( Read more... )

And see, I do do my homework! Here's Enoch and Hazard discovering the body (decided to cut out the bit about Enoch thinking he shot him, 'cause whoa melodrama!) from the POV of each. In turn.

( There was something about the crunch of crusted snow that reminded Enoch of the crunch of shattered glass beneath his boots )

PH34R the times at which Ki gets out of class and has no class for another hour, but is too lazy to return home only to trek back up the hill again after a 15-minute break. Also ph34r the times during which Ki should be curled up in an isolated corner somewhere taking a nap, but is determined to be productive despite just barely having avoided ( Read more... )

However, ( Read more... )

So, today I had Creative Writing 218. We did some workshopping, got back the assignments we turned in last week.

Teacher made some suggestions like she always does, and then she made a little note on the bottom of the page:

[Fi]--

I hope you're planning to take a 318 fiction workshop next term--

You should consider submitting to *Inscape as ( Read more... )

So, basically there's three weeks left until finals week. Which means that I have to write a 5 to 7 page short story (or poetry) for creative writing and turn it in with a 3 page paper detailing why we did what we did in the story ( Read more... )

Happy Belated Birthday, dragon_bite!

I have fulfilled your request in every point, I believe... *pokes it* Hope you like!
