let's give LoriandHubby and FallenAngel a bit of time to write if they choose to and then we can begin weaving these amazing bits into a story!

                        I was just thinking, that's not personally MY first experience with love..then I got to thinking about it and...I got sad, because I don't remember my first experience with love. -sigh-

                                            No that will do nicely! We can weave that into the story with no problem.

                        just making sure we don't jump ahead before she gets a chance. She's working on it! Adding a poem actually.

                        His name is Drake Shepherd, 
the love of my life.
I knew when I saw him
I'd soon be his wife.
He turned to me
with a gleam in his eye,
he put out his hand
and said "I'll be your guy."
I grabbed his hand
and he led me to the floor.
We dance all night,
but it felt like much more.
The feeling in my stomach
so amazing and strong.
Could he be the one
I've been searching for all along?
OH MY GOD! What was WRONG with her? This wasn't the stark reality piece she was looking for! This....this was syrupy, chirpy, full of life, in short it was HAPPY.
Cham smiled softly, frowned sharply and then propped her chin on her hand to stare at two lovers walking hand in hand through the park.
                        
                        the love of my life.

                        Ok so anyway, back to these SexIs workshops I want to do.
I'm thinking it's best to do them as a monthly meeting in Eden Lit. Kind of maybe an every other month kinda of thing.
What kinds of things are you all interested in learning?

                        Honestly I think some people need to learn the difference between opinion and fact, and also objective statements and insults.  But, I don't know that you can really teach that.

                                            Ok so anyway, back to these SexIs workshops I want to do.
I'm thinking it's best to do them as a monthly meeting in Eden Lit. Kind of maybe an every other month kinda of thing.
What kinds of things are you all interested in learning?

how articles are different than essays. How to effectively write an article that does not leave the reader hanging. .. I guess that is how you say it.

                        There's a difference between persuasive arguments and just arguing your point. And I think it's really important that we know the difference.

OH MY GOD! What was WRONG with her? This wasn't the stark reality piece she was looking for! This....this was syrupy, chirpy, full of life, in short it was HAPPY.

Champagne regularly went to the local park to write her poetry. The park was small, gritty and slightly dingy which made a perfect contrast to the warm, balmy weather of Southern California. It allowed her to see pat the bright sun to the dark shadow behind it.
People seemed to like her work though it was a complete contrast to her California girl look. She loved seeing the shock in their eyes as they read all about her dark seedy thoughts after watching her bounce up with her long blonde hair and wide blue eyes. She even had freckles for goodness sake, she was so different from the pale, black haired and disaffected teens that usually wrote her brand of poetry.
Today, however, she was having trouble peering into the heart of darkness. Last night Marshal had taken her to a new club on the outskirts of town and danced her feet off! Maybe she could write something about the dangers of high heels and the necessity of making ones self look like a rack of meat on sale...

                        At the moment of meeting my love the first time
she slowly approaches me
with a soft wisp of wind
Flowing in her long sickly hair
That second of washing her hair
A chill go down my spine,
  
That moment I felt frozen
As her eye's become grasp of mine.
Then as she said hi, nice to finally meet you.
I replied, I feel the same
As I stumbled over my own words.
As we got into the elevator of my apartment building
She looked into my eyes
Then said Iv been wanting to do this for sometime
She pushed me agents the wall of the elevator
and kissed me
In a passionate way to make me melt.

                        Actually we could do a good lesson/workshop about the difference between stating an opinion and stating a fact. It is all about citing your resources.

                                            Honestly I think some people need to learn the difference between opinion and fact, and also objective statements and insults.  But, I don't know that you can really teach that.

                        I have a series of lessons on developing writing skill but they are much more toward fiction writing so we'll be tailoring these workshops more toward non-ficion.
