Writing help

  • A free app: Grammarly. A lot of us are not native English speakers and I am finding it a helpful app. It will underline spelling and grammar mistakes. Remember that it is not always right -especially if you use complex sentence structures. Here is the link
  • Remember The Most Dangerous Writing App. You set the time - 5 min - and start typing. Don’t stop!!! It will destroy what you wrote if you stop for more than 3 seconds - and backspace does not count as writing on the app. If you are prone to stop and think - this app forces you to keep going. You can make corrections after the 5 minutes are over.
  • A timer. Egg timer is a free tool you can use on your desktop to set a time. This is useful for our freewrites or if you want to work in blocks of time and then take a break. Here is the link

“Let me breathe”

She heard it in her mind. She heard him, that is. So she screwed up her courage and took him outside.

The sky was orange with contrails, but there was no buzzing sound, at least not yet. What am I doing? she thought to herself. I’ll lose everything.

“Thank you,” he breathed into the ear of her mind, and his voice was like lilacs in the summer, her father’s hand, her mother’s hair sighing in the wind.

There was a slow and silent pause. The batteries around her building seemed to suspend their internal movements and the sky closed itself around her. Then the sound of the drones began to grow. They had detected her own breath.

“Don’t be afraid,” He said, before rising up to meet their enemy.
