Beginning of Some Chapter

This nod acted as some sort of cue for the small troupe of young exuberant people and they moved together like a jeweled flock of peacocks. The spring air swept through the stables now, as if ushering the young people toward a certain point in time. It tugged at the girls' skirts, ruffled the hair off the smooth foreheads of the men. The last gust of it blew down the dusty aisle of the barn, causing little eddies of of dirt and straw to swirl at their feet. It ended with a rattle at an open stall lit with the late afternoon sun, a stall that held a paper white horse. It stood without a spot or dapple, like a statue of living breathing marble.

A Fairy Tale by thelumpy, literature

Literature

A Fairy Tale

In a small land, in a small village that sat in a small valley was a small cottage that held a small family. There was an old woman, Grandmam, whose job it was to make the beds and rock the baby's cradle on the hearth. There was a grown woman, Mam, whose job was to sew the laundry, bake the bread, and clean the house. Then there was an almost-woman, Elsa. Elsa's job was to grow the garden. But Elsa never thought of the garden as a duty. To her it was a refuge. All of Elsa's time was spent in her little gated garden. Her skin was warm and golden from the sun, her hair strong and bright from the kisses of the fresh wind. Her arms and waist wer

Swept

As soon as Kaitlin heard the door close, she crossed to the cupbaord and opened it. She waited stiffly -straining her ears until she heard that familiar sound of the steps on the stair case, the start of his car. All of the breath she had been holding in came out in a torrential sigh. Kaitlin thrust her hands into the broom closet and hastily pulled out her broom, dustpan, and apron. Don't think. Don't think; just sweep. Don't remind yourself of everything he said. Don't...think. With hurried fingers, she tied the apron strings and feverishly started brushing her broom over the dingy tiles of her apartment floor. All the corners, under the

Drive 9

Gravel crunches as I rev the worn out truck up the narrow driveway. Leafy branches swing overhead and undergrowth moves in layers around the dirt path. I sigh as the front tires bounce over a pot hole. It's way too late...no, way too early to be getting home. When are these 4 o'clock in the morning arrivals going to stop? Never. I hear myself answer my own question. They will stop when you're dead. God, why do I become so negative when I'm tired? Why do I talk to myself? I finally see the last turn in the road before I reach the thin patch of grass the poor truck occupies in daylight. Home. No, not really

Manatee by thelumpy, literature

Manatee

I'm not really important, but I make do. And that's fine with me. I'm not even that old. Maybe a year or so older than the hot shot newer toys, but not old enough to hold a status among the stuffed animals she sleeps with every night. I'm just an average bedroom citizen. But I have stories of sorts. And every child's toy knows that it's a story that counts. Stories are the backbone of everything mystical and true, and stories are what last. We toys don't last very long at all, but when you can tell a story…then it doesn't matter that your eyes are falling out, that the dog chewed your left hand last Saturday. Stories elevate us. They alm

My Bio

I wish I was a lovely person. I think people are wonderful things and I am fascinated by them. I'm completely undignified and sometimes rude, yet I have a longing for elegance since so many young women don't even know what that is anymore. Sarcasm is my native tongue, which is unfortunate since it makes me seem snarky sometimes. I never go a day without messing up. I think a lot about the future and how scary but wonderful it could be. I think a lot about the past and how I got through it and learned to live. I don't like to wear my hair in a ponytail. I am a hopeless romantic in an old fashioned sort of way. I wish I could taste what rain after a dry hot summer smells like. Sometimes it seems as if I'm very mellow, relaxed, or quiet...but I like to think that I am incredibly passionate about the things and people I love. I want to be someone that inspires. I retreat into myself too much. I'm scared of too many things. I have a favorite food for every season. Strawberries are my favorite summer food. I collect cookbooks and write out recipes to relax.

Journal Features for Everyone!

0 min read

Well, maybe not everyone...but the first 20 people at least! RULES: 1. For each of the 20 first people answering this journal, I will put their avatar and the three deviations I like most from their gallery on the list! 2. If you answer, you have to do the same in your journal, putting the tagger on the first place. The idea of this is not to get a free feature, it is to spread art around for everyone! 1.!SonPan (https://www.deviantart.com/sonpan) http://fav.me/ddv8u5 http://fav.me/d497vsm http://fav.me/d1e1q7n 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14.

Devious Journal Entry

0 min read

So I've decided to take on the craziest endevour of my life. (Ok, not my life. But it's seriously crazy.) I'm writing a 100 page screenplay in 30 days. Yeah a movie in a month. I'm INSANE. But a happy insane. You know, the excited, bonkers, "Hurray! I'm inSAIN!" type. I'm taking an old old story idea of mine called "Drive" and putting it into film. It's really hard for me to do because I've never written in this format before. I have to pretty much write it over twice. First in prose, and then an adapted version into Celtex. My sister is helping me a itty bit because she's more of the film person. She's already placed in two short
