“She would be hot if she didn’t remind me of my mother. You ever feel that way Ms. Kinnington? I first realized I was in love with Mrs. Evans during lunch…” I tried to bury my hatred of life as Andrew came to me with yet another lover’s pursuit that would undoubtedly end in heartache. […]
#219: Write an opening using, “I’m in a half-full bottle of water.” “I’m in a half-full bottle of water right now. That’s how I feel, like I’m just waiting to get swallowed up by that idiot sitting in her office painting her fingernails or whatever it is dummies like her do. I can’t believe she […]
Alright people. I kept saying I would do another 5-minute exercise, but I never did…until now. This was actually completed on Thursday…I think. I’ve been dating my papers wrong all week. This could’ve been done on Monday for all I know. But here it is. It’s actually pretty good if I do say so myself. […]
Ex 221: Write an opening using, “I’ve got it. I’m on a roll now. On a roll.” “I’ve got it. I’m on a roll now. On a roll,” I said to Martine as she watched me pull switch after swift and push button after button. I always told my sister that being an aviator with […]

Ex 232. Write an opening using, “Don’t tell me you’re still bitter about what I did to you six years ago.” Stephen look at her with his famous I-don’t-care glare. “Oh, please, Angie,” he said, waving his sword in an exaggerated gesture. “Don’t tell me you’re still bitter about what I did to you six […]

Ex 398: Perfection Perfection. That was the only way Leona could describe Ewan. He moved like a cool lake and spoke like a sonnet. And every morning when she woke up and looked into her husband Owen’s sleeping face, she hated herself for even daring to think about another man. So what if Ewan was […]
