I'm having a terrible case of writer's block and I can't think of a single thing to write about, so I am really hoping that someone will have a heart and give me some good ideas as to what to write. I'm really open to any ideas, but I do tend to lean more towards horror stories or mysteries. I would give love stories a try but I doubt hugely on my ability to write a successful love story. Anyways...

I recently found a writing scholarship worth a fair amount of money and all I have to do is write a 17,000 word science-fiction story but I am having a hard time thinking of anything that could be turned into a good story. I have a faint idea what I want the story to be about, but everything in between is fuzzy and I'm not sure if it will help me at all. If any of you would be interested in...

I'm not quite sure on how to start this journal, so I guess I'll just start like this.My name is Dani, for short, and I'm 18 years old. For the time being me and my boyfriend are living with his parents until we save up enough money to get our own place, nothing big just something to call our own. Anyways, we have been going out for years now, and we are planning on getting married one of these...

Today was definitely one of THE worst days of my life. I have been officially been cast out by my family now, and the worst part about it is that I didn't do shit. Also, I got in a huge fight with my boyfriend on how I can never go see him, and it's true I have a really hard time being able to go see him but it's because he lives 3 hours away from where I live and I have no decent vehicle that...

So out of nowhere my mom comes home and she tells us that we to get our stuff ready because we are going to Chicago. HECK YES!!! I've been waiting all summer to do something fun, and although it's supposed to be a business trip I'm having fun (well to some extent). This was on friday and we only had like 4 hours to get all my stuff ready and prepare to leave. The trip on it's own was approximately...

Today hasn't been such a good day to start with. To start off I woke up late and found out I had to go to the shrink today and not only that but that I had to get my vaccines, all in the same place. Have I mentioned that I hate vaccines? They are horrible T.T Afterward, while I was taking my dog out to do its "business" she ran into the street and almost got run over by a car. (The car was being...

OK so I'm writing this story (which personally i don't think its that bad) but I'm barely on the second chapter and I have nothing for the third. I know what the third chapter is gonna be about, it's about Elizabeth (my second main character) and how her apartment building gets burned down and how she ends up moving to her grandma's old house in Montana but that's about it. If any of you have any...

This is a personal anecdote from when I was 5 years old. Please comment and let me now what you think, thanks.We had moved to some small apartment in some place where I can't remember, but I remember it had been a week since we had moved in. My mom was working at some security offices and my dad was working as a Carpenter during the day. It was during summer I think since I didn't go to school (as...

Hello to all! I'm sitting in my kitchen table looking out the window and next door you can see a black cat perched on their chimney. It sounds funny and in truth it does look funny too, but the way that the cat looks back at me with those greenish eyes is pretty creepy. Then again I kinda wish I was that cat. Being able to climb on roof tops without any need of ladders or anything of the sort, it...
