Narrative Show & Tell: Stephen King's On Writing

Sadly, this book cover doesn't fit in with my blog's theme. But, the content is just too good to miss. Stephen King writes about writing, what could be better? I'm not really a die-hard Stephen King fan, but I know the man can write.

It's sort of like an autobiography about how he got into writing, and what he does to keep the flow going. My favorite part is when he discusses the word "said." He says in narrative, it's always better to just use the simple word "said" after any dialogue instead of a crazy verb. He gave an example of the difference between the two, and my is it magical. I have taken a lot from this book and it is definitely one you should at least browse if you are interested in writing.

A coffee comic

For those interested in comics, you may have heard of this website. But, I just discovered it. This link is to a comic about interesting things about coffee. I just loved it! Who knew coffee beans came from red berries that grow on trees that can be up to 30 ft tall?!?

I have been finding lots of interesting links lately.

This one is hard to explain. But, you type something and it shows up in pretty little dots that only appear for a few seconds, then disappear. It's fun to write your name :D

My Computer

Being creative doesn't stop with your laptop's appearance. Here's a screenshot of my desktop. I loved this wallpaper and decided to make my adium theme around it. Also, I have my dock on the left side, which most people don't do. But I find that it's working out really well there.
