Happy Halloween


 

Happy Scary Halloween!

 

What’s the spookiest experience you’ve ever had?

What would scare a ghost?

Write your favorite spectral story from the ghoul’s point of view.

 When You dressed up for Halloween as a kid, did you make up a name for the character you were playing? What name would you invent for yourself now? I use a pen name for public platforms. It’s a play on words the North Star is my favorite star.

What scares you? Write a scary setting for the most frightening story you ever heard.

You get extra points if your writing gives you chills.

 Have a frightful time!

Cats Need Captions

 Caption These Cats


Mr. Gray jumped on the chair that Barnaby was already occupying. I think he's concerned that Barnaby will object, but I bet you can come up with a more intriguing story. What caption would you give this photo?

Hello

 Hello!

     I'm Stella North. I love to write and I want to inspire you to write, too.

     My latest novel, Ask the Wolf, is coming out as an e-book soon.

     I live in the Idaho mountains with my husband and the nine members of our animal family--5 cats, 2 horses and 2 dogs. Deer, moose and wild turkeys are frequent visitors. We see the occasional mountain lion, bob cat, skunk and badger. So far, no wolves.

        

     This is our granddog Juni, after taking a thorough dust bath. She was getting in touch with her inner wolf.

     Who is your favorite animal? Write a story about the inner life of an animal you know. Or about your inner life as an animal. I'd love to read it.

     Oops! I can't get rid of the duplicated text and photos below.  Any Ideas on how to fix it? Help!

NO ONE DIES
