There are always things when it comes to writing that I wish I knew yesterday instead of learning too late. But since I don't have a time machine, here are the three lessons I wish someone had thought to put down on paper for me instead of waiting until I learned them the hard way.

6 Things About Writing I Wish I Could Go Back In Time And Tell Myself
We all wish for a time machine for one reason or another. Sometimes it's to go back and play the numbers for a big lottery jackpot. To see a loved one more time, or to go and tell our past selves not to go on that date because we're going to get our hearts broken.

Eavesdropping Sleepy Mission (Unofficial) Challenge Winners
First, off let me apologize for making you wait. I know I'm a day late, and I posted two stories before this one today, but let me explain: I got called into work last night, and also, I am weirdly particular about the layout of my profile. I like it to go in a certain order when possible (unless there's a series involved.)

One Of Those Days
Introduction Many days I will wake up and have many subjects to write about. I try not to repeat myself and I also am wary of publishing poems one after another. When we work at our day jobs we have no choice but to go to work, deliver what needs delivering and put in the hours.

About Me: Cloey Kinney
A Brief History My mother clung onto my brother and I as kids. Not in a manner that’d warrant our own TLC documentary, but enough. I was twelve when I could walk the block alone. It’s worth mentioning that I was related to most of my town’s population. It was less of an adventure, and more of a brief family reunion every time we left the house. However, once I hit sixth grade, I was met with new faces when the small elementary schools were pushed together into one large middle school. Despite the feeling of ‘new,’ my mother has told the story a million times of how I spent the first day (Without taking into note how my mother was stalking me from the back of the parking lot next door, the story is quite cute). It was just me, a notepad, and an empty swing set to kick off this new chapter of my life. Little did anyone know, once I picked up a pen, I’d never put it down.
