Exercise for writing:

Here is an exercise that I had to do for class.  I liked the outcome so I decided to share it.  Hope you enjoy!  Let me know what you think.

Throughout the day, I am captivated by her as I watch her slowly dance and sway.  As enchanting as she is in the day she is far more exotic in the night.  Her burnt orange, red and blue tones are beautiful.  I am fascinated as I watch the orange tint turn to green with her never ending appetite.  Then am amazed as the orange again returns. 
Though I believe I have mastered her control, in one inattentive moment she could obliterate all.  Like a blanket, she gives me a false sense of security.  She is never constant, never repeatable.  Some days, she stands tall others she remains small.  The one thing she guarantees each passerby is to provide light and warmth during the cold lonely nights. 
In her heart, she bares the truth of what she is, a destroyer.  Caring nothing for what she consumes indeed even willing to consume all.  Her core looks stunning with its white and red coals to help provide you with her heat, but when she leaves they will be black and hollow. 

Her breath is strong and cloudy.  Though you often do not see it you will feel it as it will bring tears to your eyes if you get in its path.  Some manipulate it and use it for communication, others use it for protection against things they are afraid of.  In the end, there is only one with the power overall.

Exercise

With every hobby or craft one needs to practice and exercise that craft.  Writing is no different.  When you write do you do exercises.  I never had until I started my Creative Writing class.  I am surprised to find out they are actually really enjoyable.  They help me remember why I love to write and help me to want to continue to do so.

Goodnight

Wrote about another 1500 words tonight.  It's been a long day and I am headed off to bed.  I just wanted to say goodnight.  I hope you are all able to live your dreams even if you are only able to make small steps everyday, or have to take a step or two back.

For Your Patience

First of all I have to apologize for being away for so long.  I have a new goal of posting at least once a week.  I have been working very diligently on completing Reborn for all of you who have been waiting patiently for it to be released.  I have written quite a bit in the last few months and will continue to do so until it is done.  Keep in mind that I will need some beta-readers, before it is fully completed.  If that is something you would like to do just let me know :).  As of right now I am giving free e-book copies of Tormented (Immortals Saga Book 1) away for free at Smashwords.com for Labor Day weekend.  Just enter the coupon code YA46M at the checkout!
