    Nothing

    There are some things in this world that we need. Some things that we neglect. We've been trained to fear it. We've been trained to hide it. But it's there. It's built inside us waiting to appear. But we're scared to show it. We've been taught to think. We've been taught to supress it. And...

    Mental workout equivalent to physical stress

    We tire from reading long passages. Though the blood doesn't pump methodically throughout our body during reading, do we burn calories through mental process? How much energy is used to read compared to running a block?

    Lost in Translation.

    The soul of the author is lost once the book is rewritten. We rewrite the story but leave the spirit behind. His thoughts become the translator's. His choice of words, his poetry and talent, his sequence and rhythm are gone. We no longer read the author's thoughts but a second hand...

    Philosophy

    Under the Bookshelves category, introduce a Philosophy section. I've been knee-deep in philosophical authors and need an outlet.

    In the Contract

    It was already too late. The helicopter was spinning and descending, flames engulfed the side where the rocket hit. Inside, two soldiers were dead instantly from the impact. Their bodies lay on top of other soldiers still buckled into their chairs, desperately trying to free themselves...

    Liquid Lullaby

    This passage has no words. It is bare. I only write now to fulfill a void. In my heart? I hardly think, but act before reason when writing these. Making sense but barely connecting to those among us. I continue my rant. The title itself means nothing to its belongings. I enjoy the flow...

    Boredom Attacks

    Boredom attacks my brain like tiny sea-shells of metal to an ever so absorbant magnet. There is no defense mechanism within so they leech on, sucking energy but leaving me awake. When the energy is dry, they do not leave. They linger, waiting for me to refuel my supply so they may continue...

    Journalists Amoung Us?

    Hello everyone, So i was wondering - seeing that I'm getting into journalism myself - if there were any journalists here in the community. I would like to know some pros and cons to the job and whether or not I'm in for a rude awakening.. (I'm still in career debate mode but leaning...

    Feedback

    Excellent website. I've been looking for this for a while. I've checked other forums and sites and it's just too crowded, too much going on on the screen. Here it's simple, easy on the eyes, and organized. Just thought i'd give some feedback on a well-established website.

    The Art of Improvision

    Words wither in the mind In tune, devine, on time they wait to expell Dared to speak them, they linger Emotions attach to letters as they roll off the tongue The body begins its play An energy released, an energy recieved The words spoken, but possibly decieved Stare into the eye of the...

    Erotica and Testosterone

    Can the two mix? I feel like i want to try reading an erotic book but i assume they cater to the female population. Correct me if i'm wrong, but most erotica's are from a woman's general point of view and i'd rather read one from the males. Are there any good erotica's for men?
