A Critique Of Vocal's Search
Vocal's Search facilities often don't return what we are looking for, but it's very powerful in what it does. It searches within text as well as titles, but if you know who wrote the story you are after add their name to the search and you usually find your story.

Introduction Very often people are stumped for things to write about.

The Addams Family - TV Series
As a kid, The Addams Family was a favourite of mine, not as obvious as The Munsters but delightfully subversive. As an adult I bought the DVD and was not impressed with the picture quality, but five minutes into the first episode that didn't matter. Astin, Jones & Co Perfection.

One Word Poem
Introduction While I am of the opinion that writing is the only art form where to can correct and amend as your work progresses, or even when you thought your work was finished, I do like to create difficult literary situations for me to challenge and overcome.

Small Stories
Introduction A while back Vocal dropped its limits on certain communities for certain challenges. While part of me was against this being permanent, I have come around to the thought that this could be beneficial at times for creators, including myself.
