Hello, all. Our next Writing Workshop may seem deceptively simple. Once again, I nicked from Brian Kiteley:
Loving. Write about a person you love. This apparently simple instruction may be more difficult than you think. What makes us love people? How do we avoid being sentimental when describing the attributes that make someone loveable? You ( Read more... )

I can't really remember a time when I didn't love him. The jerk would have gone out of his way to exploit that if he knew, so that's why I make it absolutely certain he couldn't. I treat him with the same manner he does me, and even now part of me wants more ( ... )

To be honest I've never really trusted love. It can be used against you in the blink of an eye and you're left realing as to what the fuck it was all about ( ... )

In books, people seem to always fall in love at first sight. I do not know if it was love at first sight, necessarily, but from the moment I met Jon Snow I knew he would be very special to me. Perhaps it was the quiet sort of dignity he carried with him, courteous and polite yet not stuffy, or perhaps it was it was his sympathetic ear for me when I spoke of the loss of my family, or his steadfast commitment to his honour, but whatever the reason I was drawn to him from the start. He always showed a care for me that I was not always sure I deserved, but treasured all the same ( ... )

Well, girls, it's like this. I didn't mean for it to happen, but he's like that. You can't plan things around him, much. He's a bugger like that. I wish I could tell you that it's exciting to be around, but, mostly, ladies, it's just annoying. But you make allowances. For love, you make allowances. Did I ever tell you about how we met? If you promise to stay still, I'll tell you all about it. See, in a magic country a very long way away on the other side of where the sun rises, mommy used to be a magic girl. She used to make magic sweets which cured sore heads and sore hearts and made absolutely everyone fall in love with her. He never stood a chance. And I kissed his head better, which counts for a lot. He's a silly man, but we love him...because he's kinder than he wants to be, and he's warm, and he leaves a lot of room. And mommy needs a lot of room. Because look at the size of mommy ( ... )
