She lay on my operating table; my insides churned. My thoughts mixed together; I was apprehensive. All the negative thoughts surrounding her, and the question if she would live, weighed me down. My hands lay flat on the table, next to her beautiful torso. I clenched them, feeling light-headed. [...]

QUILTERS — help — this isn’t coming out right!?
I’m making a quilt for my niece’s graduation. The pattern alternates large 7 1/2 inch batik squares with four-square patches of black and white. So far, so good. All the batiks are cut, and all of the four-patch squares are sewn with standard 1/4 inch seams.
The pattern called for 3 1/2 squares [...]

What is the name of this fantasy children’s book?
I’ve been looking for a book I had as a child for years, but don’t remember enough information to help in finding it.

It was about a girl finding a maze-like castle/house in the middle of a forest I believe and [...]

What are your opinions on this story?
Reese stuffed her phone in her purse and rushed to the bathroom mirror for a quick face check. Her smoky eye make-up was really good. It made her look sexy, almost seductive. She smiled a little and then leaned closer to the mirror. Suddenly she frowned at her reflection. She reached for removal pads and [...]
Most difficult to revise, this excercise. What thoughts can you write about a simple box?
The cardboard box rests
against the wall
under the sash.
It’s weathered–
grease stained or oil,
it doesn’t matter;
they’re worse than
rainwater.
It leans but doesn’t
fall. The meaningless
contents or cobwebs
keeps it standing
a crooked, kind of, tall.
The window is held
with a crooked stick–elm,
but everyone likes oak.
The box flap flaps
to the occasional
gust of hot wind
that blows.
The off-white curtains
snap as a whip, straining
rods like a [...]
