Another inspiring poem I found on WritersCafe.org

La mer insensible à froid *The cold unfeeling sea I cried to the sea all my sorrows But it took little notice of me For tears and moans is all it's known Wind and rain: what I am to the sea © 2011 Vesa Lee

Well, we were making lemonade.We decided that a word of the month was necessary. And so here it is:

Begrudgingly, our first word of the month.

—Related forms

We also found a piece of text from a book called Savannah by the Sea written by Denise Hildreth. Featuring our word begrudgingly not once but twice!

... I settled into a nice rhythm of literary life, examining the essence of our humanness and telling its story through the eyes less-than-perfect journeyman. The city had welcomed me. Begrudgingly but eventually. I had accepted it. Begrudgingly and eventually as well...

Now we ask you to use this word to inspire a piece from you...

emotion writing

Have you ever been in one of those stressed out, confused, angry moods when you feel like you could explode at any given moment? well if you have, it may not seem like a great time for writing but really, it is!
writing can be a great way to release some pressure or say something your too afraid to say aloud, here are some ideas;


-write a letter to someone telling them what you really think (i don't suggest sending it)
-write a poem to express your emotions
-design some powerful word art
-or if none of these seem appropriate, then just start writing, your head may not know what your feeling but your heart will, spill your emotion onto paper and not only could you create a good piece of writing but it can also help you understand yourself.

New Inspiration

I was stuck on the second chapter of one of my stories when I came to this advice.

If your stuck just try something, anything in case it works. If it doesn't work, at least you know what doesn't work.

I knew something wouldn't work in my mind, so I had never tried it out. As soon as I tried it, I ticked it of the list and my mind cleared so I could think of another way. It worked so well I had to share it.

Inspiral Authors

Inspiral Authors are pieces written by either proper published authors, or pretty close to it:



7 til 7

translucent morning eternity
warmed by the steam from my coffee cup
no deception left in lazy smiles and bunny slippers
where else can peace be found
except in pancakes and birdsong?
