Have you tried interviewing them? Not about anything in your story, but just talking with them in your head. It did help me understand a character who was my opposite.

This made me smile. Is it a suggestion you can disable? Sometimes that's an option.

There is no case in the history of this planet when book banning reflected well on the banner. Not. One. Yet they persist. :(

Contests | Lichfield Institute Writing contest for short stories, essays and poems. Literature, politics, culture, poetry, psychology, science, philosophy.

If you've encountered the Litchfield Institute writing contest & are tempted by the huge prizes & small entry fee, writer beware: un-named judges & faculty, no verifiable info on the Institute itself, & a web domain just 9 days old. Pretty shady IMO www.lichfieldinst.org

It's critique week for anyone on a deadline. Free critiques as long as I can fit 'em into my schedule. I'm a published author and a Writers of the Future finalist, so I don't give rubbish critiques.

LOL There's ALWAYS more I should read. My TBR list terrifies me. It will someday fall and crush me.

Me too. And the ones I do read, I'm looking for information on how the author is. Not what's their publication schedule, but if they or their family situation has improved. Lessons to learn, I guess.

A tentacled alien reaching for warmth and friendship to captors with cold hearts.

A tentacled alien reaching for warmth and friendship to captors with cold hearts.

This is a scene from my short story recently published in Dreamforge Magazine. It's a story about a captured alien with a warm nature living in a society of cold hearted individuals. As much as I love this picture, my favorite image is the one at the end of the story. It sums everything up so well.

Thanks for this, Catherine! We've read maybe half of them and this has a few new ones. Woot!

Good news on so many fronts! Since Finaling in Writers of the Future, I've honed my craft and received more Honorable Mentions and Silver Honorable Mentions. I'm reprinted in Dreamforge tinyurl.com/tw9e534u and will accepted in next year's Murderbugs. Check out the Kickstarter: tinyurl.com/3jf3kkna
