Another Clean Slate! Write on!!!!! N/T
New person here
Hi everyone,
I've been lurking around for a couple of days, reading the wonderful exercises everyone else has posted and trying to get up the nerve to post my own. I am simply amazed at the quality of writing I have found here. If you people are not getting published, then there's no hope for me! The quality of the work that most of you have submitted to this site is absolutely fantastic!

June Exercise(Repost)
June exercise
Hi. I am trying to write "smaller". I Hope this isn't too mundane. Thanks for reading.
The drought broke the way droughts always break in central Texas; with a flood. A tropical wave swept over northern Mexico causing mudslides in the mountains. The wave stalled over Texas, dropping inches of rain over the space of two days on earth baked hard as concrete by months of endless heat. Creeks rose quickly out of their limestone banks and swept away the unfortunate and the foolhardy in their cars.
The Storm of the Heart
June's Exercise
The Art of Water
In the dance of the changing tides, the sea has remained a song to the heart of man and womankind. With a language of sound and sensation, mystery and adventure, she speaks to those destined to sail her cresting waves, or sleep the eternal rest in graves buried deep below.
hey Shirley, Judy!! (inside, please)
the time was right, so I just took the plunge... I wrote a blurb on the response to the 4th reply under post 42 (whew! what a mouthful! ;) ) Check it out and let me know what you think... I won't cry if you tell me I need a rewrite, so go ahead and give it your professional opinion... please? :)
I feel like I am learning so much on the Monday night chats... thanks for all you do! :)
Join me tonight in the Readers and Writers Chat room at 10pm EDT for the writing class! nt
