I know at least I'm in need of some major inspo right now. So, here I've compiled a list of songs that can inspire whatever subcategory of poetic feel you've just been looking for! You can take these into your brain a few different ways... number 1, you can straight shoot up on them while …
Author: Kari Lynn M
Hey there! I'm Kari, a self-published author/independent artist/amateur cake decorator/freelance writer and creator with a dream. The dream of sharing stories with as many people I can possibly reach... and having an abundant supply of white chocolate truffles.
And that's pretty much me!
For my (and your) negative reviewers
I bought a book on how to talk the dirty speak in Russian last week. It sounds really random, but if you know me, it's not. When I brought the book home I immediately turned to chapter 7, which is all about what the kids call "talking smack" . I memorized my top 3 insults …
Just another lil’ something I wrote.
Also for a creative writing class! So, what did you guys think of the first short story I wrote? Hopefully, you liked it, and you're ready for another one! So, here's just another lil' something I wrote based on this prompt... Make a small location where a group of tight-knit people are gathered and bring …
Just a lil’ something I wrote.
For my creative writing class. Hey, homedogs! I don't know why, but my computer browser always wants to correct "homedogs" to "homologs"... But, anyway, I'm back this week with... not one, but TWO short stories I wrote for my creativity class focused on writing! This one's gonna be the first, and it went off a …
My baby snail laid eggs!
I'm so low on my list of things to blog about that this is what comes out of it. But I bought a baby snail at that Petco place a few weeks ago... well, actually, I bought a lil' ghost shrimp, and the snail came with it for free. Because, apparently, baby snails aren't normally …
Do our moods dictate our writing?
I'm noticing a pattern. For example, I actually don't feel like writing this blog post right now. But I'm still doing it. But maybe it won't turn out as amazing as I actually planned. I'll admit it, I've actually felt really out of the writing mood lately. Things have been busy. I've been sleepy. I …
“Craft a cliché poem”
And so I did. This poem was yet another one made for that good ol' creative writing class, and the prompt goes... well, craft a cliché poem! Specifically, I was asked to come up with a long list of clichés and then put them together in "fresh, surprising, unexpected ways". Here's what I came up …
What I believe The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is (maybe) teaching me about writing
AND WHAT I NEED TO TELL YOU ABOUT IT. If you haven't seen or, dare I even say... heard of her yet, where have you been? It seems anymore that all I do is read my magazines, blow my nose, and watch the stuff that my magazines tell me to watch. Miraculously, one of my …

I wrote another poem.
(For my creative writing class.) So, for my first big writing project in my new writing class, I had to answer 3 poetry prompts with... well, 3 original poems. My favorite, I think, is this one... the second one. And the prompt for it was, generally, something like this... Write a poem that is a …
Emma Lenford updates for those who have been searching for them…
Whoever that is that's searching, I don't know, but I'd like to think at least someone is curious... So, I'm just immediately going to say this- I don't have super grand news. Please don't grab your torch and pitchforks. Now, I published the first book in my (new-ish) Emma Lenford series almost a year ago, …
