On Putting My Poetry and Fiction Up on This Blog

~ Elea Andrea Almazora

Friends!  Countrymen!  Readers of this blog!   Can I have a minute of your time?

As some of you may know, I’ve been encouraged to put my horrible attempts at literature (scroll down to the comments, if you don’t want to read the whole post).  To honor the bravery of these commenters (and a friend in Facebook), I will, in fact be posting all future attempts at poetry and fiction in this blog.

All the things meme, saying "Write All the Shit"
Because I might as well do it.

But before I do that, I want to create a category for posts that feature those works.  And I need to name that category.

Since I can’t decide what to call that category (I don’t want to just name it “Writing”), I’m asking you guys to help me.  Which among these choices has the most merit, in your opinion?

  • WriteInBetween
  • WritingPuppetPals
  • ReturntoMordor

I look forward to your input (if you guys are still interested).

Cheers! ^^;

EDIT:  Slightly related – wifosaurus of Write Lara Write posted Write Now motivational posters on her blog.  Now if that isn’t a sign…(pun intended).

  1. WriteInBetween is suitable, though you could always just have a separate blog for it, like what I did for my wow roleplay prose. XD It would still be under you.

    1. Thanks for the input! *hugs*

      I was tempted to set up a separate blog; but loads of people seem to think that it’s better to put that stuff on THIS blog first. Hm…decisions, decisions…

  2. Thanks for the mention!

    Just be careful if you want to go the old-school publishing route…some might not be willing to publish something already “published” online. Poetry you don’t intend to enter in contests and excerpts of fiction should be fine.

    That said, I like WritingBetween, because WritinginBetween is too long, and Reading and Writing are parallel.

    1. I think the mention is well-deserved. 🙂

      And that’s two votes for WriteInBetween! 😀

      PS: I’m eyeing the old-school publishing route cautiously for now. It has its merits, but I keep hearing word of its inefficiency (especially here in my country).

      2. :)) It’s okay. Sometimes we need competition. There might not be enough of that in the world anymore.

        Note that I said “competition” and not “war”. There IS a difference XD

What do you think?
