I am a fourth year theatre major at Winona State University, and I’m pursuing direction. For the longest time, I thought I was going to be a writer or a playwright, but I found my love and joy in theatre. I still write, but many of the posts I put on here are old works, not new. I’m getting back into writing again, and I really appreciate the feedback I’ve been getting.

I adore all literature, and books were my first love. I have an insatiable interest in royal history and (royal) historical jewels…I love history in general, but I especially love it in these items. Music is another great love of mine; of just about any kind and caliber, but I especially love choral works and adore singing whenever I can.

Poetry / "Irish Mourn"
Version 1
5 Reviews   0 Comments
Cool green mists Float over the sea as the run rises tremulously over the shoreline A woman wearing silk Greek silk Floats over the sand as lightly as the breeze She sings a lonely, haunted ballad Which prickles the hair at my nape As she walks past The wind whips and floats her hair With the lilting Irish breeze The resonance of the cliffs and hills The irresistible chorus of the emerald waves below her The melody of the wind The song of the sea. She mourns her lost love And as the wind carr...

Poetry / Jade
Version 1

"Jade" The aching silence broke open onto a horizon full of light The tremulous dawn spreading across the rustling grasses, While he stood, drinking in the delicious turquoise breaking on the shore at his feet His toes burrowed softly into the cold, crumbly sand, Echoing. The smooth rumble of the ocean awakening The soft breeze dancing across his cheek While she slid an arm around his waist And breathed gently into his side. The glass bit into his palm As drops of blood mingled with the sand ...

Poetry / Paddy Last
I really, really liked and appreciated this piece. It has strength behind it...it's only 4 stanzas, but very powerful. I've no idea if this is biographical by any means, but if so...I definitely want your ancestors.

Flash Fiction / Imitate A Girl
The idea is really good. All of the women listed are good and interesting choices for your points, but the piece itself is choked by the lack of punctuation and the massive run-on sentence that is this story. If you even added periods for every three women listed, it would be a vast improvement. This idea is wonderful, you just need to work on the spelling and the punctuation.
This is a marked improvement from the last time I read this. There are a few lines I'm still having trouble with--the first line under the stanza 09:10 just doesn't flow...the wording is awkward and it chokes that entire stanza. Also, under stanza 09:59, the first line also seems awkward--some punctuation might help, or try rewording the sentence. It doesn't flow. Other than that, it's going to be a real work of art once you're through revising.
Crime, Thrillers & Mystery / It was a chocolate hob nob kind of day
I really enjoyed this piece. I wanted it to keep going, but alas, you stopped. Cheesy detective novella it may be, but lovely tone and nice imagery. For some criticism, it seems as though you put much thought into the first part of your piece, but as soon as you got to Semelia, everything else faded away. I would put less emphasis on the description of her...you already make it clear that the character is very interested in her, and it's unnecessary to further drag the audience into the groun...
