author - "Elinor Skinner"
This is a combination of poems I wrote for a class and some inspired works.
I still hope to add more; as I still have a lot of notebooks I need to type up. But please feel free to enjoy.
Where I got the idea for Change:
Writer's Studio
June 2012
Preamble: A first person narrator in the midst of a painful, and dramatic situation that says so up front and moves on to the moment. Go from confronting the pain to running away from it. Use description to reveal the narrator's life and questions to enhance mood.
Idea for Childhood:
Writer's Studio
July 2012
Preamble: Creating a third person narrator who sets up the scene in the first four lines. Be revealing of the drama and use indirection of a metaphor to lead away from it. Then come back to the actual drama of the situation. The tone is formal and lyrical, and the mood being dark.
This book is full of lyrics; in other words songs.
I was part of a band once, but the members didn't hold together. Nonetheless, I have never forgotten those days of practice. Writing the songs and singing them too.
Just like my Past Life, I will also continue adding to the book as I go.
Although everyone should know this is more of unrefined work; as I develop actual complete pieces I will be sure to add a title. Otherwise, the pages/chapter will be refered as general categories (ex. dark, or marked as IP-in progress.)
An outcast, Aya a.k.a. Ice has to get through normal day to day life.
However while there is comfort in solitude,
Will she ever find anyone who is willing to accept her for herself?
This is the excerise the idea came from. I took it out of the book. However I know the some of us love writing, but have trouble coming up with ideas. So I put it here in the blurb, so it won't detract from the story.
Writer's Studio (Workshop)
July/August 2012
Preamble: A third person narrator who is unpretentious storyteller allowing the story to unfold itself. A tone that is light and conversational and fills the scene with mood. Describing three scenes from the place to interaction of a group of people than the main character.
This book is my thoughts and notes when I am coming up with stories, or when I get stuck on a perticular tale. I thought since a lot of people have a hard time with writing, a slice of life of an author would help.
As for the more generic versions I list you are free to use them, if you just need something to help keep you going, or any questions you might have I will be more than willing to answer.
However some specific ideas in this book like start paragraphs, I hope to publish one day, so please remember that this is only insight to how I at least think when I am in my writing mode.
I hope this can help as a guide, and
Just so you know the best way to write is to sit down and write!
As in the first chapter of my book, I sat at my computer til I came up with twelve ideas that I could use, and did not go to sleep til I did.
I wish everyone the best of luck!!!
