Thanks so much Teagan! I appreciate the honor!

Every time I read her blog posts, I find myself tapping away with an idea to improve my writing. Teagan's first novel An Unstill Life, falls under the commercial women’s fiction banner. Her Work In Progress (WIP) is a trilogy. She is developing characters and plot for the second novel in the series.

3.) Answer the four questions below:

What are you working on?

I always work on something each day. I work on poems daily. Several articles, book and movie reviews fill folders that are waiting for me finish. I have several short stories that are mostly completed. And a few that I have general ideas about. The characters are banging on the closet door for release. Mainly, I have been focusing on poems.


How does your work differ from others in the genre?

Well, I try to write poems on diverse topics: Love and romance, friendship, emotions, poetry and the seasons, to name a few. I guess you could call my poems free verseI try to experiment with structure, style and type of poems. Much of my poetry rhymes and is set in stanzas. I write a lot of micropoetry as I comment on my G+ friend's posts.


Why do you write what you write?

A year or so ago, when I started blogging, I set out to write short stories and articles. But I found that I really enjoyed writing poetry. I discovered that some seemed to enjoy my poetry, so at their encouragement, I continue writing poems. I enjoy words and communicating ideas through words. I love the response and interactions that results from words.


How does your writing process work?  

I get inspiration for stories from comments people make (on G+ or real life). Movies, songs and stories inspire me. Many times, when I wake a story or poem will begin to run through my head. The story A Blue Mime's Story on my Hubpages site came to me in a dream. The first stanza of the poem I wrote yesterday, two-step, came to me as I was waking.

I try to spend at least an hour a day working on poems that I have partly written or start new ones. I read as many poems a day as I can. I read about school's of poetry and read the poets from the schools. I discovered that my poetry is akin to the philosophy of Imagist poets. (You will have to look it up!)

Recently, I haven't had as much time to write as used to but I still try to make it priority to work on something daily!

Thanks again to Teagan and I hope you enjoy the bloggers work that I have shared in this Blog Hop!

Stephen King’s “What Writing Is”

On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft    “What Writing Is” I have written an article in another Blog summarizing several sections in Stephen King's book. This article is about another section of his intriguing book. Stephen King’s “What Writing Is” 4. What Writing Is —pp.103-107 Stephen King suggests: “Telepathy, of course.” Writing is telepathy. Telepathy is defined as “the transmission of information from one person to another without using any of our known sensory channels or physical interaction.” In modern fiction and science fiction, many superheroes and super-villains are endowed with telepathic abilities. The term was coined in 1882 by the classical scholar Frederic W. H. Myers, a founder of the Society for Psychical Research, and has remained more popular than the earlier expression thought-transference. (Wikipedia) Writing about telepathy, King suggests that we are “downstream on the time-line”. We are in the here-and-now and as he writes from the past, he
