February Exercise - Find A Penny
This is the kind of romantic stuff I like to write whether or not it would actually sell. It was inspired by a real conversation overheard at the mall.

FIND A PENNY
Giggles caught Cecille's attention in the line at the mall coffee shop. Turning, she saw a small girl with long braids and bronze skin.
"Look, Daddy! A penny!" The girl crouched on the floor. "Can I keep it?"
"Find a penny, pick it up, and all the day you'll have good luck," her father said.
My first writing excercise...all input will be greatly appreciated
I am so glad this day is over! The weather was beautiful today, although it is supposed to turn nasty tonight. It was 70degrees today and tomorrows high is supposed to be 32! We're supposed to have rain and thunderstorms tonight and snow flurries tomorrow.
Crazy weather.
OK. I give up. Here I am naked to the world - my February exercise (m)
I wrote most of this in the car last week prompted by a song on the radio. Of course, the radio was silenced so I could dictate my reactions into my tape recorder.
There is a little problem between me and the homophobic narrator of this piece. I'm sure we can work it out. I'll grant her almost anything since she helped me write a bit away from myself.

Writing for weekly newspapers
I am a retired chef interested in writing professionally. I really don't know where to begin. I have an extensive culinary library, has worked in test kitchens, but I really love to write, mysteries, food, culinary historical information etc. I need some help cause I really don't know where to begin.
LOL, you guys are great! m
Thank you all for such a nice welcome. I’m going to try to not be TOO autobiographical. As they say, "truth is stranger than fiction" and I don't want you all to think I should take it to the relationship boards! I'm sneaking this one in at work and will get back to everyone ASAP. :o)
new gal!
Kinda....:) I float around on THE STORYBOARD and Fiction Writers. So how do we get started here? I am looking for the exercise and I must be blind or something. I see lots of writings *for* the exercise. :) Is that something we get in the class? When is the class? Got room for an extroverted, ADD, loud mouthed (kinda) girl? If I'm a bad girl you can put the dunce cap on me or put me in the corner..Just don't send a note home to my mommy...cause I'd doubt she'd care. ;)
