I got into Sister Writes!
Apr. 19th, 2018 08:57 amIt is a ten week workshop and you get a professional to edit your story and then it gets printed in an anthology. Yeah!
I am going to use something I worked on a long time ago and see if it suits. I have to have a draft by May 1st. I hear really good things about this group. My friend Jen got me in it. She has been earning a living writing for an on-line mag. She has a wicked wit, is very smart and has been an "inspiration" though she would kill me if she knew I said that. :P

Funny Names
May. 6th, 2014 08:14 amOne of my favourite blogs is The Blog of Funny Names.
In honour of their poll, Time to Vote! TBOFN 2nd Annual Funniest Names in the NFL Draft Poll, I am posting my short story about funny names. I love funny names. I have a horrible inability to remember people's names. If you have a unique name there is a chance I might remember it, hence my love of funny ones.

Note: In defense of this rather silly story, I have often wondered what effect a name has on a persons development, at least until they can change it. There is the thing of being considered beautiful. i have taken these two very interesting ponderances and gone south with them, because I am an idiot and couldn't think of anything not depressing for the prompt. If you misspell my given name it becomes "Dense".
I did in fact have a boss once, named Peter Dickey, a co-worker named Umu and another named Song Sing, and yes they were all extremely good looking, likeable and good at their jobs.
