Blades of Heart and Mind
Challenge: Setting & Vivid Imagery with Metaphorical Inclusion: In a world where the sky is an ever-shifting canvas of emotions, depict a morning where the dawn doesn't break as usual. Instead, the sky "weeps" crystalline tears, forming shimmering lakes on the ground below. The protagonist, a young mage-in-training, believes these tears are more than just a natural phenomenon. Describe the scene, capturing the play of light, the sensation of the crystal tears, and the mage's awe and curiosity as they try to decipher the sky's message.

Freewriting Exercise
I have not been motivated to write for days, nor have I found much inspiration. So, I'm doing an exercise that I was taught in high school to get the gears flowing. This will be ten, unadulterated minutes of freewriting. Whatever comes out of my mind will be on the page. I cannot promise proper spelling or grammar, I can only promise what comes out of me to be authentic. Feel free to give it a try and see where it takes you...

Baby's Night Out. Top Story - September 2023. Content Warning.
**This story contains a mention of pregnancy and childbirth.** I just dropped my kid off at something called ‘Parent’s Night Out,' hosted by our Karate dojo. My husband is with his friends at their annual all day game we affectionately refer to as ‘all gay dame.’ So I have the night to myself. It occurred to me that I could use a clever title for my little solo excursion. My buddy Malinda offered ‘baby’s night out’ and I think that fits. It implies wandering in a childlike state of exploration for the simple pleasures in life. A rare treat for a mama with a nine to five and a husband who works most nights and weekends.

Releasing the Secret Enthusiasm: Investigating the Erotic Side of Composing . Content Warning.
Presentation Composing is many times seen as a consistent and organized pursuit, however underneath the surface lies a rich and sexy world ready to be investigated. Figuring out the exotic part of reviewing opens new roads for imagination and articulation.
