There are many places where you can practice writing online. There is of course here, WriterShelf. I like it the best because of the ability to have multiple pen names. Still, it's good to have different places to write in addition to WriterShelf.

I'm sure everyone has heard the saying "ignorance is bliss" over and over again in so many different situations. But what does it mean really? Well, of course it implies different things in different situations, but most of the time, it generall...

One of the most problematic things for kids and teens these days is: lack of sleep. Yes, it might be because they are up late watching TV shows or procrastinating and doing whatever to put off their homework, but ultimately, it leads up to the com...

Sometimes the most important things can be the hardest to say.  Using a pen name gives you the freedom to share your feelings without the strings. To get things out. Plus, exuberance can be catching!  Your catharsis awaits.

To be honest, I am not sure at all how to get motivation, and the only thing keeping me going throughout the week is knowing that the weekend is coming. I know this kind of mindset probably doesn't help with getting things done efficiently, but ho...
