    The Magic of Pets

    When my cat died on March 20th, I stopped blogging entirely. The only reason you’ll see I posted blogs on that particular date (and after) is because I always schedule my blogs about 1-2 weeks ahead. I would like to let you all know that I have been reading every…

    Help Save Purrfect Match Cat Adoptions

    Hi everyone! I recently came across Purrfect Match Cat Adoptions, a charity in NSW Australia that is under terrible distress. Cat adoptions have slowed down, funds are incredibly low and the shelter is currently faced with a dire relocation problem – it won’t be long before they have nowhere to…

    Changing Sides (or the Virtue of Ignorant Owners)

    by Stephen Roche Getting a new pet is an important decision. Be it a dog, a cat, or a tiny bird that sits in a cage all day. And another important decision is choosing the right one. You know, that feeling you get when you first see them and say…

    Is it time for your writing break(through)?

    by Laura Laakso I saw my chiropractor yesterday and his parting words were that if I didn’t stop writing, which he wasn’t expecting me to do, I’d have to take better care of myself. My first thought was, who has he been talking to? Was it my doctor, or my…

    How (not) to write

    by Dawn Gresko  So there’s a ton of material on the world wide web (and the whole wide world) telling you how to write. What about how not to write? Instead of sharing strategies for how I’ve gone about composing my own poetry and prose, which is a totally subjective…

    The Cat Behind The Cat’s Write

    My little munchkin, Sven, passed away last week on March 20 after he was hit by a car. He was only two years old. I could go on and on about how guilty I feel that he got out of the house that day and I forgot about him, but I…

    Thoughts on publishing today and in the 90s

    by Ken Harrison I started writing as Keith Wilkins for extra cash back in the ’90s when you could make a quick buck writing short stories for porn magazines. I also wrote book reviews for a local LGBT newspaper, Bay Windows, but short stories paid more. I was a regular…

    The One Left Behind: Part 3

    Part 1 – Part 2 Monty The guy standing in front of me looked… normal. Besides the height. He was tall, exceptionally so, with dark hair twisted into a ponytail and strange, violet-coloured eyes. I squinted in a menacing manner as I held onto the gate. ‘Who the hell are you?’ He…

    Tricking yourself into writing

    by Claudia Blood I’m not sure about the rest of you, but I have to trick myself into writing. Yes, I want to be a writer, but writing is HARD. Daydreaming about stories is almost as satisfying as writing them down and far easier. There’s none of that messy grammar…
