Ludwig is one storyteller that I seriously want to learn from. His style of telling stories is engaging, snappy, and extremely effective. I have yet to see a storyteller like him. The only person who could hold up to par would Levy Rozman and his theatrical storytelling. These guys are people that I can learn … Continue reading Understanding Storytelling
Short Thoughts
Sometimes, you just want to let your brain fart and say do what it wants. This category is basically my brain’s toilet.

I held an old umbrella on my hand, and I looked up at the sunny sky and thought about opening my umbrella to protect myself from the sun. I clicked on the button that automatically opened the umbrella, then I heard a quick snap. … Continue reading Selective Accountability
Momentum Build-up
One thing I've always dismissed when building habits is momentum. When atomic habits and momentum combine, habits will increment in size and in scope. Building the right habits with the right scope usually is a daunting task, but with small incremental steps and leveraging momentum it's so easy. However, I've also noticed that when the … Continue reading Momentum Build-up
Short Story Drought
It's hard to read when the story you're reading is boring as fuck. It's not captivating. It's not entertaining. What really troubles me is when the paragraphs are way too fucking long. I don't want to read those kinds of paragraphs because they're so tiring to look at. Why not make them into bite sized … Continue reading Short Story Drought

Well, let's get to it. https://www.reddit.com/r/WritingPrompts/comments/141664e/wp_the_year_is_12023_youre_writing_your_thesis_on/ If I were honest, the prompt is not something that I'm really interested in, … Continue reading Learning from Writing Prompts?!
SSW Doc #2: Learning from other Literature
After a long break, I finally got my stride to write short stories again. Well, not exactly. I’ve never really written enough for the month of May, but I think I can make it up for June. Honestly, I’m in no rush at all. I feel totally in control of my output. For this week, … Continue reading SSW Doc #2: Learning from other Literature
Canned Sardines
No matter where I’ll end up in the future. Be it successful or in poverty. I would never forget the taste of canned sardines. Why? It’s the reason I’m still alive right now. One of the cheapest food sources out there. And, a reliable one at that too. It’s not good for everyday consumption – … Continue reading Canned Sardines
