• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Would anyone like to try a writing prompt? Write a story with "You did What?"

I wrote a story in Creative Writing section based on this prompt but if you decide to take up please wait to read my take on it. I love to see what others come up with.

I do like writing prompts and already have a short story in mind that I will post soon.

I written short stories, a Novella and am writing several books. Doing so takes time and editing seems eternal. I also search for writing prompts to end writers block. Here is one my daughter created:

Seek the truth, carved in stone. Break the lie to be atoned
To free the captive, captive be. Count the truths that number three
Ignore the pretty, haunting lie, for those unwary, trapped inside
Never bargain with a ghost. With promises, promised host
Blood frees blood, but trapped inside, a pretty stone, in which they lie

I wrote a short story for it but I do not feel its very good. Still, maybe someone else can use it and come up with a better idea than I did. So I put it here.

I wrote some poems in past

JS: Poems can be difficult to write or at least as difficult as short stories and novels. I written a novelette and am working on a couple novels. Those are also hard but if writing is in your blood you will write.

Each writing requires slightly different skills. So don't put your poetry writing down, its not easy for everyone, just as I find writing stories easy I find poetry a challenge.
