Writers should never go to jail!

"Freya" and I were talking the other day about some of the characters in our stories. Well, it was more like gossiping about the characters. "Freya" pointed out that it's not wrong to gossip if they're not real people. If we gossip about fake people, that kind of makes it so we don't have the urge to gossip about people in real life. And when you don't feel guilty about it, that makes your characters so much more fun!

And then I got to thinking: Well maybe if we lie, steal, and do other wrongs through the villains... Doesn't that mean we won't want to do it in real life? She agreed with me. Of course this was another one of our nonsense conversations... but still, it made sense (Yes, the nonsense made sense). Writers shouldn't have a reason to go to jail. If they want to do something wrong they can write and do it in first person!

Don't sin... just have a lot of villains in you stories.

The Carpet Cleaner

This is a poem about an unsung hero: the carpet cleaner. I wanted to tell people about how great this profession was. Share this with a friend. Together we can spread the word about the awesomeness of carpet cleaners!

The Carpet Cleaner
I stood there with my good ol' vacuum.
The Carpet was full of dirt gloom. 
 I had never seen such a dirty floor.
I prepared myself to run out the door.
A carpet cleaner, this was my job.
My partner's name was Frank, mine was Bob.
The carpet was tan, though it was supposed to be white.
To clean that carpet, we'd be there all night.
I looked at Frank, he looked at me. 
I took a deep breath and started to clean. 
As I vacuumed and scrubbed, the carpet looked fine.
On this carpet, you could even dine!
We finished at midnight, I heard the bell.
We were done, and the carpet looked swell!
