I dunno really what to say- I'm slowly trying to get enough of my short stories together to hopefully publish an anthology once day and I'd love to get any helpful feedback on my writing! I try to focus on a single event in my stories, as if I pulled them from life, and I try to use the main characters' persepctive when I can. I'm a very visual writer and I like to try and make the images tell the stories for me so...

She always stood out; just watched the world move on without her. I didn't; I had a life, bursting at the seams with my boyfriend and friends and the pride of youth-but most importantly- I was happy ...I was also proud. Proud

A sullen lamppost gave light to see by. Thin tendrils of fog wrapped around it as if to quench its lonely light. Aside the lamppost lay a worn and faded mat that read, "Welcome home".1

My username is tallblondie but most people just call me Blondie. Our site is a community of people who all share a common desire to write and hopefully become a published author sometime in the future. It is also a place to sharpen your writing skills and display your creativity while being in a fun environment!
