Short Story

I really liked today's story. It just kind of wrote itself!

I had to look up how to spell chique, then cross reference the definition to make sure I got it write.

Free Verse Fridays!

It's FRIDAY!

Which means I have to work....

But I'll be done work after a grueling 5 and half hours (I know, I'm so hard done by!) and after that I get to celebrate a long weekend of sitting on my ass playing vidjagames!

I can't stress enough how much fun this story is to write. I actually have to stop myself from writing otherwise I'd do nothing but write this all day!

Wednesday's comic!

I did a bit of an experiment on this. I wanted to do a comic without words so....

Vidja games!

Video games have been a rather big part of my life. I've love playing them and find them to provide days, sometimes years, of entertainment. I've always been the type to compile all my games instead of selling them/trading them in, so whenever I want to go back and play a game I liked I just do so.

It helps when there's a games drought like now. By games drought I mean, no GOOD games coming out that I'm interested in. Now I can go back and play all the games I never finished! Like Harvest Moon....

Sunday Bloody Sunday!

The hardest thing about having a wild card day is deciding what to do with it.

I won't lie, sometimes I just want to sleep and forget about the blog. It's never easy to keep doing something every day. It's always worth it though.

Short Story Saturdays!

Sometimes its hard to write a story, and sometimes I get inspired just after writing the first sentence.

Free Verse 25

I don't know if this is the actual 25th free verse on here or not. It was just kind of poetic.

Today's poem was actually inspired by something I read earlier. You can find the link below

It's a long read, but worth it.

The original poem was actually lost, I had to re-write what I could from it. It's mostly all there...

Shannon

I remember my first exams. They were pretty nerve racking but I was pretty sure I was well prepared. My first grade 9 math test was actually way more stressful! But I blame my math teacher for that. The week before he would go on and on about how students always underestimated the seriousness of their first high school math test and how it was so much harder than they thought and how they'd often fail if they didn't study hard enough!

Way to make me stress for nothing!

Poetry Slam Mondays!

I can actually say that this time!

I was reading about the protests going on all over and how sad a state the world is in. I feel like Jimmy from Art School Confidential, just hoping for the for the slim chance that you might one day, possibly, see some glorious plague or pestilence bring horrible suffering to your hateful species.


Anyways, here's my poem!

Wild Card

I've a lot on my plate today so we'll see what comes of what.

Not really inspired to write right now, so just a limerick today.

Shorter Stories

I decided to try my hand at a bit of suspense/thriller.

Let me know what you think!

Free Verseing It!

I wrote a free verse poem at work on Wednesday. But that's not what you're going to read!

I wrote this one just now... And by just now I mean after I ate breakfast and made myself a cup of tea.

I find a lot of people tend to try and force me into situations I don't want to be in (for now).
I almost never title my work, but this time I did.

Shannon's Story continues!

It's amazing how quickly time flies. Especially when writing a fiction universe!

That's ok. It gives me time to pace things out more.

E3 a week late...

Ok, I'm tired of ranting over on the Art Blog. Suffice it to say, I think Playstation All-Stars: Battle Royale is a travesty. It's games like this that make me weep for the ingenuity of the future.

Shannon continues on!

Apparently when I'm typing in feverish emotion I make a lot more spelling mistakes.

If you spot a lot of spelling mistakes in this section just know its cause I was writing so full out I didn't notice them!

Just a limerick

I don't feel like working to hard today. I have to go to work in a minute and need to squeeze in time to get my passport....

Possibilities!

The world can be a wondrous place, and it's easy to get pulled into distractions and the rat race of it all!

Sometimes you just want to get lost in fantasy and forget the worlds problems.

And sometimes you want to forget distraction and make fantasy reality.

Shorts

I wasn't inspired to write today.

I decided to go out and find something to help inspire me but it didn't come

Then I thought back on the advice my writing teacher Dan Lalande told me once. He said if you're having trouble getting started or even finishing something, to just write it.

Don't worry if it's good enough. You can fix it later. Just write.

Freedom of Verse!

This was inspired by an awesome philosophical night with my friend on Wednesday.


Thursday, June 7, 2012

Reuinited and it feels so good!

We continue with the cliff hanger I left you on Tuesday!

Who was it that called Shannon's name? WHO!? Was it Aberdine? was it Jeremy? Who!?

Lovebot_9000!

This is actually the first time Lovebot_9000 has been on this blog! I keep forgetting that the Art Blog and Write Blog are separate entities sometimes.

Anyhow! Enjoy today's comic!

MONDAYS! I HATE MONDAYS!

I actually woke up today lost. I didn't know what day it was for the blog and was really confused as to what I should do!

I figured it out shortly, but it was kind of frustrating to know I wasn't prepared for today....

Today's poem isn't like any traditional poem. Check it out after the break!

Protest

I'm not in the mood to write. I'm actually a little bit angry about the state of the world right now. There's a lot of things going on that bother me and I feel mostly powerless to do anything.

It's not just what's going on though, its the people's willingness to accept it without question. How can so many people support such blatant hypocrisy and oppression?

I want to elaborate but this isn't a blog about politics or anything like that. It's a blog about writing. But if you're really interested google whats going on with the protests in Quebec and how they're being dealt with.

Short Sweet Stories

I was thinking about how much I love my home right now. I don't think I want to leave it, really.

I find it fascinating that we can get attached to inanimate things. I'm not sure if its aesthetics or just nostalgic memories but some things we grow really attached too (like an old car, or a deck), and somethings we can throw away without care (like old furniture).

Freeing the Verse!

I was going to do a poem about missing someone, but I couldn't get past the first line.
