Hi there. I've gone back to [email protected] for reasons.
"The U.S. joined Saudi Arabia, Iran and North Korea in voting against the resolution."
Someone please explain why.

The Smith Compound crew will celebrate on New Year's Eve by torching not one but two Twitter accounts.
What to give a crime fiction fan? How about some “compelling, gut-wrenching” Detective Red Shaw?

My advice to not just #screenwriters but to #writers in general is this:
Yeah, listen to and read the advice of others more experienced than you, but write your stuff. Just get it out of your head and onto paper. Don't fuck about with form, i.e., margins and font and font size and word and page count. Get it all on paper. You'll have time to get it in the correct format and all *after* you've done all the other drafts and made it all work. (Trust me. You first draft will be shit. They are.)

Well, I gave it my best shot...
Congrats to the winning haiku writers of all ages!!
FTR, I don't care that "impactful" is in some dictionaries. Ain't gonna use it in any other sentence of mine.

WRITING TIP No 483
There's a difference between "writer's block" and "I don't like what I'm writing but don't like admitting it."
One's a paralysis packaged in fear and expectation, the other is boredom. They're not the same.
If you don't like what you're writing, go write what you would like to be writing. This is your permission slip.
We don't see as one.
Do we both misunderstand,
or are you just wrong?
Haiku contest entries are due Monday. Have you submitted your 17 syllables yet?
I just did. (Not the one attached.) Always fun to try!
