Above all else, I believe in the human existence. One should live a life worth writing about and read to experience lives outside their own. The keys to life are in the text.

D.H. Lawrence as a Fortune-Teller?

In one of the most controversial novels of the 20th century, D.H. Lawrence explores life, love and sex along Connie Chatterley’s journey to physical and existential reawakening. In his depiction of the life of the mind and the industrialized world, particularly his prediction of what the world would be like 100 years after the writing of this work (e.g. ~2030), how accurate do you all feel Lawrence’s prediction of the potential destructive nature of the industrialized world to be?

    This is a great take on a tricky-to-do artform. When witnessing, and subsequently writing about these profound moments in life in such a way, it is markedly difficult to stray from detailed explanations and head towards concision. These are very useful and practical tips, easily applicable to one’s own works right away. Kudos.

    Four Techniques of Effective Flash Nonfiction Writers

    This list just added a few new places to my Bucket List itinerary. “Les Deux Magots,” is an absolute must, as Jean Paul Sartre and I, by all my subjective accounts, are 100% within the same karass. Thank you for this, I know whereto at least some of my future pilgrimages will be.

    Literature Places You Should Visit

    I’m a writer who approached the process through finding I had a knack for wordplay in my critical analyses of the literature I studied in school. I’ve always tried to create original plots, characters, etc., and more often than not, I find myself with writer’s block for that very reason.
    I have good friends in college who, as part of NaNoWriMo, chose to write fan fiction, and they explained it all to me largely in this same, ultimately positive lens.

    They told me it was very beneficial for honing your skills and refining your weak spots as a writer. The subject is intriguing, and I particularly liked the portion, “Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul.” I feel this is a great medium to enhance oneself as a writer, while more importantly, writing about subjects that matter to you personally. Very in-depth explication of the topic, kudos to the author.
