My Writing ‘Schedule’
My writing schedule, is really not a schedule. I have tried to keep this blog active with posts by writing in spurts and scheduling those posts for specific times. I think consistency is good, and with the scheduled postings, I feel like I can be a little more consistent. Unfortunately, my actual writing times are…

Explosives T-Shirt
I listen to a lot of pod casts on my drive to and from work. One of the podcasts I listen to is Writing Excuses. At the end of each episode they usually provide a writing prompt. I don’t usually do anything with the writing prompts, but this was early in the podcast seasons and…

Lost in the Stars: Chapter 1
It wasn’t always this way. It used to be better. The people were kinder. The quality of life was better. The volcano hadn’t erupted. I’m Yumiku. I am what two-legged pale creatures that destroy the earth would call a monster. I’m nice, though I don’t really look like it. I like to read. I like…

Behind Schedule
Since I started blogging on this particular site, I have been doing a pretty good job of maintaining a somewhat consistent posting schedule. I had even gotten enough content ready that I had it scheduled out several weeks (at two posts a week). Unfortunately, I allowed my work ahead to lull me into a more…

Chapter 6: The Confrontation
I heard a loud, deep growling. It was shaking the Earth like a Sokrokatata shaking its prey. The creature prowled towards me and Gale. I heard its footsteps. Or should I say pawsteps?! I was about to scream as loud as I could, but Gale slapped his hand across my mouth before I could. I…

Chapter 5: The Big Scare
I slowed to a halt. Gale had caught up to me and we were both breathing heavily. “Why are we here!?!?!?!!” Gale exclaimed frantically. “Why are you here? You didn’t have to follow me, you dork!” I said, exasperated. “You’re my friend, you idiot! I still care about you! I’m not going to let you…

Chapter 4: New Companion
Well, now I have to rest. I’m exhausted. On my way, I see Gale. “Hey Georgie!” He said. “Where are you going? Where’s everyone else?” “Hey Gale” I say, running over to him. “I don’t know where everyone else is either…” Gale seems worried. “Do you think we’re the last leprechaun kids left in Lepcania?”…

Chapter 3: On the Way
I was feeling down. I didn’t see the rainbow yet. To tell the truth, I was scared. I just kept on walking and hoped I wouldn’t die. Little surprises would probably come, like the poop-spitting clovers, wild, ferocious animals, and leprechaun traps. I wanted to make my family proud though. I could just hear them…

How I Found a Pot of Gold: Chapter 2: Not Normal Stuff
When I woke up the next morning, I was like, yo? Anyone there? Not normal stuff for me. Nobody was home. Nobody was answering my calls. I didn’t know if they were coming back. Don’t be silly. But still! They’re coming back soon! Weren’t they? I was home alone the entire day. I ate ice…

How I Found a Pot of Gold: Chapter One: A Poopish Day
I was walking along the road when suddenly a clover popped out at me and pooped on my face. I really hate it when that happens. Bit nasty if you ask me. Unless humans think differently. Then it’s delightful? Really not the most delightful and happy thing to me, especially if you’ve had a bad…
