Practice helps...when in doubt simply write! A short lesson mapping a story or article would be helpful for you. A map is simply a guide for the author to chart the flow of a story or article and make sure it stays coherent and reads easily.

She is the partner who was helpong with me with the scene with Nora so she has come a long way in a relatively short time, all things considered.
It took many, many years for Sigel to get me to understand that he wasn't trying to say that he wanted to see me act like a trashy slut but that he didn't want me to miss out on ANYTHING just to keep him around. He wasn't going to leave anyhow. He wanted me to feel free, and now I thank him for it.

I am going to try that but it has really a long time and my brain don't hold thoughts. So I will see how it works.

I'm thinking that many more community members would be interested in how to write a great review...and then we can narrow the focus to writing in general. Maybe expand the club a bit even! I'm always about pimping the Eden Lit!

Yeah, we had a few conversations like that.

I just hope she is okay with me being a slut sometimes. It can be quite fun! (As long as you take a few precautions) and she is free to do the same. It has been quite the learning experience but she ia starting to see and realize some of the benefits.

I think that works that is why I am here. I think it would help me in both areas.

OH an another feature now that I have more of you here: The story starts topic. This month Sneakersandpearls has written us a really great start. I would like to pass around the challenge. Can you write a generic start to a story that the rest of us can pick up and make our own? It's worth a few points for the person who writes the start and a whole lot of fun to see how each writer will interpret the start.
Anyone who is interested just send me your idea this month in an email (on site is fine) and I'll choose the best start. No limit you can "win" every month...I just think it'll be fun to get some new blood flowing.
The start can be seasonal, fictional, sci-fi, erotic, non-erotic whatever. It needs to be a minimum of three paragraphs but other than that the sky is the limit.

We need to pick a topic for next month...December. I'm thinking fire and ice, slow simmering stew on the stove, incredible delights for the senses. What do you guys think?

How about a story based on/inspired by a holiday carol?
