I’ve done NaNoWriMo and Camp NaNoWriMo six times now. I haven’t won every time – I’m pretty sure it’s mostly fails. But I’ve learned a lot about how to win – or lose but still feel like you wrote well – NaNoWriMo. Read my other posts about NaNoWriMo here. What Even is NaNoWriMo and How…

100 Word Story: Harmony Forest
The green trees stood proudly in the sea of bright young grass. No human footsteps had ever crossed the path, no harsh boot prints had pressed the flowers. Only the squirrels skittered happily, gathering their nuts gratefully from the giving trees, who graced their arms down to them to let them pick enough for a…
Poetry: Crazy
Crazy Fast in circles round and round– Cuckoo cuckoo flop! Chaos galore, screaming loud!
Guest Post by Anna: Cali and the Lovedove!
Once we were taking Cali on a walk. Cali found a lovedove. Then Cali chased it. And played with it. They were friends. They played together for one hour. And they jumped onto a tree. And then Cali had to go home. But Cali was sad. So we made Cali a stuffed animal of it….

Poetry: On The Other Side
