writer's Challenge #4

Taking full advantage of my recent visit to the coast, I thought it might be interesting to see things from another creature's eyes. This thought came about while watching people flocking to tide pools and gawking at the various aquatic lifeforms.

So, this challenge: Pick a sea creature that can typically be found on the shoreline and write a story strictly from this creature's point of view.

Let's play some Brute!

Hey there, friends!

I was doing some random online browsing for internet excitement of an odd flavor and I ended up running across the craziest little game! (Okay, it probably isn't extremely crazy but it does seem like a lot of fun)!


The game is called My Brute and when you show up at the site, you get the chance to make your own little brute. By simply typing in your fighter's name, the site generates a cute little fighter for you. If you don't like the way he or she looks, click on the little button to the left of it, near th
e feet and the site will randomly generate a new character until you find something more appealing. You can even change the color scheme of your Brute with the button on the right.

Get your guy or gal started and throw it into the arena for some fighting fun! The site will ask you to set up a password but doesn't ask for anything else!

There is no real complicated game play, just a couple clicks gets you into a fight with another brute and the website A.I. does the rest! It may not be super involved but is an entertaining 3 minutes of the day, regardless!

Writing Challenge #3

Wow, it took some time get back 'round to this blog. My apologies. I would like to make some reason for not posting which fills your heart with pity which causes you to excuse it all away. Unfortunately, I ain't got one! Moving on:

I know today isn't Monday, but...
This week's writing challenge is a simple one. Pick a favorite musical band, favorite movie, video game, comic book, role playing....well, you get the point. Once you have it nestled securely into your forethought, write a haiku (or a series of haiku) discussing it. Heck, you could even write one for each of the various topics I displayed above (or more, if you choose).

Let's see what we can get done eight days from now (July 17th).
