If you have not realized it yet, I love to write. All my writings are not lovely, beautiful, and flowing. Although, I would like to think some of it falls within those guide lines. That’s the thing about practicing writing as a sacred art, you get to write what you want, however you want and it’s okay because it’s just practice.
Practice does not have to be serious. I mean no one is going to take your writer’s card away if you don’t write the great American novel. The following is an excerpt from a practice on one of my less than serious days.
In Defense of Zombies
As far as the undead go, Zombies are a much maligned species. They make
romantic movies about vampires and werewolves. But in zombie movies they
are either trying to eat people or their junk is falling off.
Well I’m here to tell you zombies are people too! Okay, maybe not people but
can’t you give a zombie some love? Zombies try to be good; I have it on good
authority that they never eat their boyfriends or girlfriends unless provoked.
They are an honorable people in most circumstances. But sometimes it just
can’t be helped and they have to have a tasty morsel of flesh. They do try
not to eat anyone important. Although, I know they have their eye on Warren Buffett
because the rich taste extremely rich and his last name reminds them of an
informal dinner and Margaritaville.
