Namelessness Isn't an Option

ABOUT
You can have the world...
Ask for it once,
if you get it, play with it.
If they say no,
make them sorry.

Always A Dreamer ---
I get a little distracted

There’s something about the look in your eyes// Something I noticed when the light was just right// It reminded me twice that I was alive//



Nestillia- thoughts brought forward
Varua- delightful pictures
Distraction! just dorking around
VaruasGeis- Musical inspiration
Spun-To-Infinity-Broken but Hopeful

Kurt Vonnegut’s Rules for the Short Story

1. Use the time of a total stranger in such a way that he or she will not feel the time was wasted.

2. Give the reader at least one character he or she can root for.

3. Every character should want something, even if it is only a glass of water.

4. Every sentence must do one of two things–reveal character or advance the action.

5. Start as close to the end as possible.

6. Be a sadist. No matter how sweet and innocent your leading characters, make awful things happen to them–in order that the reader may see what they are made of.

7. Write to please just one person. If you open a window and make love to the world, so to speak, your story will get pneumonia.

8. Give your readers as much information as possible as soon as possible. To heck with suspense. Readers should have such complete understanding of what is going on, where and why, that they could finish the story themselves, should cockroaches eat the last few pages.

Good suggestions. (There are no rules.)
