THINKING OF WAYS TO FINISH..........

Finishing! How?

 Read and study short stories.

I have started billions of projects in my life. Most were easy to start.

Only a few were easy to finish.

(I can hear your synapses spanking your frontal lobes, what's this guy ever done, another
jack of all and master of, of  none)

ONE NAME is on tip of  the crib sheet of my tongue FRESH WRITING?

I started a writer's critique group about a month ago.

New writers and some seasoned one's are trying to decide how to write Fiction.

They buy books and go to writer's groups.

It's easy to go to a group in my town. People smarter than me started a good one.

It was so successful that it needed to break down into smaller groups that met on

alternate weeks to the big group.

When  "My Little Writers Group" had met several times, vacations started and I invited

new people who came and we always had four to six writers and readers.

This was my target number. Meetings were not always smooth and folks wanted to

talk about , well other things. Things besides writing. They wanted rules. I told them

there were no rules. I lied like my great uncle in law twice removed ( once or twice)

taught me. There are always rules. My book Writer's Group's will be out ... in the Alley?




I ALMOST FORGOT the name KM Wieland. Her secret / Read her short stories and visit her sight.


That was August  2013. Now  it is Jan 2014. I hope you accomplished more than I did. But I learned a lot. Making money in the market is not so hard...when it's going  up and most people don't know it.

And for me writing is always a big challenge.

Some one told me life is a prayer......but

That was a metaphor... I could say it is a myth and that would be a trope...

Truth is we don't know what life is. We know about life... that's science the

study of....Life

Man can study things...but he doesn't know it all... that's why we call some

people  know it all. Because they pretend but they don't know. People who face facts

admit they don't know it all. Think about it........

A Topic sentance in a paragraph, the main idea in a scene

............Comments or opinions may or may not be true or accurate. Just like anything you read see or hear. But if you engage your frontal lobs you may get what you look for, if you look with all your heart .............

I'M JUST trying to think of a way to say it to myself... that will help me remember...THE TOPIC SENTENCE, and/or the FOCAL CHARACTER provide many good benefits to the FICTION writer but most writers I meet resists fundamental rules. Well we can call them suggestions or exercises. If seems to me it is like preparing the wood before you paint. Or pre-heating the oven before inserting the souflette.
