Genre-bending literature has become a prominent literary discussion topic, and for many readers, its innovative appeal is undeniable. However, a more nuanced phenomenon may be emerging: a distinct bending within the genre-bending itself. www.ronslate.com/on-sea-mothe...

Great article in NY Times. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Hello Writers, My daughter’s school held a 2 sentence suspense story contest & I thought why not ask this writer community to do the same. It’s a fun warm-up activity during NaNoWriMo. Post your 2 sentence suspense (or fantasy) story in the comments. Let’s play on the page;)

Happy Authors Day and Happy First Day of NaNoWrMo for those of you participating. Happy writing!

It’s almost time for NaNoWriMo. What story are you dreaming about and are you ready to draft it? Find me nanowrimo.org Buddy name: Bstromeyer

So sad about Matthew Perry’s passing. Friends was the first TV show I was introduced to when I first came to America. I took my mom on a studio tour the year I turned 30. RIP Matthew Perry.
