Questions

I am writing a novel and I dont want to send off for a cd that tells me about all the free grants out. I already know I want a grant for writing a book. I just need to know what govt office I need to call or who to write to an request the application to be mailed to me. I just need the application itself not all that other stuff the internet offers. I just want the application for the grant itself. with application in my hands, I can handle the rest.

I need to illustrate a story for a project in around 5 panels, give or take. I don’t really have anything specific in mind, just looking for some ideas, short poem or story, maybe something for kids, but nothing that’s really been done before. No fairy tale’s or stuff like that.

It can be odd or weird, I can do that.

Any idea’s you have would be great, let me know, thanks.

How can I get rid of writer’s block and keep my stuff fresh? How can I employ suspense better?

Particularly ones involving nurses. can be english, american, etc., novels or online writings. Think Pearl Harbor, Atonement, English Patient type of stuff. I am a sucker for this kind of romance but I am unable to find anything online or in bookstores just searching on my own.

Once you introduce a paranormal element, is it no longer to be classified as “adventure fiction”? If you know your stuff, please say so. If you want to quess, or even have a strong opinion, you’re welcome to answer, but I especially want to hear from those in the know.

i can write fiction books pretty good, draw, hack(barely though), i have a lot of friends and am good with people, good at sports play guitar, lotsa of stuff. but Everywhere i go, im too young too submit stuff, design games and other things i want to do, there isnt even a place that teaches about that stuff. scchool and home and the “norm” life isnt enough but what can i do now?

I have been an avid novel reader and have mainly read thriller, mysteries, etc. I have enjoyed medical thrillers immensely although I have read some law and techno thrillers. All of the stuff without any real merit lol However, I want to broaden my horizon and begin to read about real life events, topics, people, etc. I need to start with some non-fiction books that are exciting enough to hold my interest, and then I will sort of “wean” myself from this need for excitement.

Does anyone have non-fiction titles to start with? It doesn’t matter the topic, just needs to be interesting and reasonably exciting.

Thanks in advance for your answers!

I’m writing a poem for my English class. We just got done reading Bronx Masquerade. In the book, people have conflicts that they need to get over. I need to write a poem like that. My issue is either a.) dreams vs. reality or b.) i listen to everyone else but me and the encouraging stuff. Tell me a or b, and how to go about writing it.

Hi, i just joined a poetry class at my college, and i’m having a bit of fun with it, so i was wondering if anyone knew of a site where i could post poetry and receive critical/peer advice and/or opinions. Not stuff for class, just poems i write onmy own time to see what the world thinks of it, anything just so its published somewhere and reviewed! thanks!
thankyou, those sites look good:)
