Brand New...

    So, I this is the deal. I love writing my other blog, From Nate's Noggin, and of course I do my film reviews in print and my podcast, The Freaking Film Fanatic. However, when I started that blog, I wanted to use writing prompts to help me become a better writer. But, when I started FNN, I haven't ever had a hard time thinking of things to write about. Sometimes they just jump into my head and I have to write them. I do feel bad though. I have started a lot of blogs on FNN, but haven't finished them yet, mainly due to time. 

    Now, I don't know if any of you out there would care to read anything past FNN or The FFF, but I still wanted to put this out there for others to read. There is a writing project called Nanorimo, I think is how it is spelled, but it's probably wrong. The idea is that every November, you try to write at least 1,000 words a day, and work on a novel, a blog, or whatever. This is going to be the blog that will have me stretching my mind and emotions into different ways. When I started FNN, I said in the very first post that I was starting that blog to do what I want to do with this blog. I promise that I will still be writing and posting FNN and The FFF, but it will be more about things that come to me, and not exactly a writing assignment.

    With this blog, I will be telling stories from the past, or make things up. This is the blog I intended to make, but I have loved doing FNN so much, that I figured that I would rather have the writing prompt assignments on this one. I know not many people will read it, which is great. This one is mostly for me, but I think that there can be a lot of really fun things happening in this blog if you care to read.

    I also wanted you all to know that I won't be posting on Facebook when I have a new entry for this blog, like I do for FNN and The FFF. I don't want to be annoying, and bugging you to read my stuff. This blog might take some really weird turns, but I think that for me, this is about me learning to be a better writer. I mentioned in a post over on FNN, that I have been writing a choose your own adventure style book for anyone who wants to read it. It's really fun writing, but I think doing these writing prompts will help me when I get writer's block. It happens often, but when I am given a certain thing to write about, I usually don't get writer's block, so I think it will be therapy for my writer's block.

    Anyway, that's it for this post. I will be writing a lot, I hope. If there is something I really like that I write, maybe I will link it on Facebook or emails, but I won't hound anyone. Until next time, ummm,  until....ummm, uhhh, Dang it! I have writers block. I can't find a way to end this post.........

Perfect. Just Perfect

This one is a prompt that I kind of pieced two different prompts to crate this story. This is just a really short story.     It was a typical Monday morning at Amory High School. Nothing really out of the ordinary. Kevin, a senior, was looking for a math homework assignment that he left in his locker the previous Friday, and was thinking that he could just copy a friend's assignment, or do a rush job. Kevin was a pretty popular kid, and had lots of friends. However, there was a girl that he had been going to school with pretty much his whole life, named Lucy.     Lucy wasn't popular, and her home life wasn't great either. Her dad left the family when she was three years old, and her mom didn't have a great job, but it kept them afloat. Lucy was smart, and a kind person to anyone she talked to, though most of the student body tried to ignore her. She still tried to help them in different ways. Lucy also had a minor disability. While her mother was pregnant, Lucy suffe...

      Hell is a scary place. I mean, really scary. There are ways to torture every single soul that ends up there for eternity. Even the demons that serve the Lord of Darkness are punished if Satan requires them to tempt and earn a human soul, but fail. There is even a leaderboard showing off the best of the demons at any given time. However, If they don't succeed in their missions, they are punished by the Evil Overlord himself.....except for one.      There is a demon named Abraxas, and every single soul and demon cannot stand Abraxas. He's loud, loves being punished and he actually loves living in Hell. In fact, he drives Satan crazy so much, that Satan is constantly sending him back to Earth to try and corrupt souls. Once a mission is either successful or failed, Abraxas returns to Hell, there is already a new mission, just for him. He is a failure most of the time, but no one in Hell actually cares, just as long as Abraxas isn't around to drive th...

What is an important item from your childhood, and where is it now....

    As Christmas is approaching quickly, and having turned 40 years of age this year, I was thinking that I have had 39 Christmas days, with the 40th happening in two weeks. I think back on all of the things I have received for Christmas, and what it would look like with every Christmas present I ever received was all in the living room on Christmas morning.          As I think back on all of the great memories and times spent with family, there are some presents that stand out the most in my memory. One was my first guitar, which I got when I was 14, almost 15, years old, and I still have it in my parent's unfinished basement, that is used for storage. I haven't played that guitar in years, but it's the one I first had, and spent hours upon hours teaching myself how to play. A couple years later, I got an electric guitar, and two years after that, I got a guitar pedal effects board so I could play different songs with different sounds. I now have a be...
