Love | Poets & Writers

I don't have a lot of practical experience but have a degree in Creative Writing. I've been working on a children/teen novel for a couple years and have just gotten myself stuck. I also write a lot of teen and adult for fun and am really looking to just get the creativity going again. Since leaving school I've probably written less than a thousand words.

I don't need hyper focus on my projects or hyper focus at all. Maybe just people to keep me writing and creative. I would prefer a group that doesn't mind talking or sharing creativity. I love to talk my ideas aloud.

I participated in NaNoWriMo for years and this year I just couldn't find the time to do it.

Thanks for reading!

I am quite fond of reading and writing. I've journaled for more than half the amount of years I've been traversing my Life's learning journey. Been kind of in need of some motivation lately though. Really have enjoyed reading, learning, coming to be acquainted with the world by means of words; shared by speaking, reading, hearing, etc.

I did write a book. Got it all pulled together and listed online for sale among the recent years. It be composed of a story (that's a poem) with illustrations and little life advices basically. It's a coloring book, with writing and a small story at the beginning. Have thought of maybe revising it a wee bit with maybe the help of a good agent or individual with the skill of helping me do that. Hope to get it some more attention and gain the priceless gift of it helping others.

The name of the book is, "Learn to Live a Life You Love" and that be the basic topic of my book's content.

Want to connect with other writer's, and build greater connections to the world in happy great ways... some involving writing and such ;-)

Sall for now, yo :-) Best warm wishes to all

Sky Island Journal is an independent, international, free-access literary journal; we are dedicated to discovering and publishing the finest original poetry, flash fiction, and creative nonfiction. We publish accomplished, well-established authors—side by side—with fresh, emerging voices. We provide our readers with a powerful, focused, advertising-free literary experience that transports them: one that challenges them intellectually and moves them emotionally.

We want to be the first publication to give your writing a clean, powerful, international platform with a diverse readership. What are we looking for? We don’t want to limit our readers; therefore, we don’t want to limit you. We know quality work when we experience it. We don’t mean to be coy, but you need to know that we’re not interested in making your art conform to some preconceived aesthetic. We’re neither presumptuous enough, nor pretentious enough, to proclaim what "won’t fit" before we even try it on. Send us your best. We have over 80,000 readers in 145 countries, and they are hungry for the best new writing.

Creative Nonfiction draws heavily from unsolicited submissions. Our editors believe that providing a platform for emerging writers and helping them find readers is an essential role of literary magazines, and it’s been our privilege to work with many fine writers early in their careers. A typical issue of CNF contains at least one essay by a previously unpublished writer. We’re open to all types of creative nonfiction, from immersion reportage to personal essay to memoir.

Please do send work that blends style with substance, and reaches beyond the personal to tell us something new about the world. We're drawn to stories that balance a strong narrative (i.e. something happens) with a teaching or reflective element (i.e. the something that happens matters for some reason). Please do include your complete contact information and keep us informed of the status of simultaneous submissions. Please don't send poetry.
