"Many people hear voices when no one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much do the same thing." -Meg Chittenden

Nonsense is Sensible

"I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope and that enables you to laugh at life's realities."
-Dr. Seuss

Now that school is out, my writing time has suddenly increased exponentially. I've been meaning to do this for a while, but haven't had the time. This is a blog about my experiences as a budding writer. It will be a mix of stories I've written and my own thoughts. As I get farther into the summer my hope is that I will have more posts and stories for this blog.

A side note: The Adventures of Princess Cleo and Vyacheslav the Black is a story in episodes. Each story will hopefully be able to stand on its own, but I am writing them in a particular order. It will be a sort of Sherlock Holmes meets MaryJanice Davidson and has a cliché explosion.

It started out as an English assignment. The assignment was "write a short story". We also had to be prepared to discuss the elements of fiction within our stories, but that came later. The title is tentative.
