ladies and gentlemen.
i want my next mixtape to drop at the end of 2013. i want it to be a strictly collaborations. that means i need to do about twelve collabs this year. i want to do that, so let's please make it happen. if you want to get on a rap song with me, please PM me immediately. or in any time in the future. no rush. let's make some music happen.



Or so I think....
I almost have my grade twelve, just a month away!
But... I have some marks to upgrade, and another class I need to take in order to meet the requirements for University.

I've been debating for quite some time on what I want to do with my life, because I feel that now that I've grown up, a post-secondary education is super important. So, it was either being a Youth Care Worker (two years of post-secondary, not in university), Teacher, or Police Officer (too out of shape).

I've decided today to start taking the steps to become a High School Teacher, hopefully I will be focusing mostly in English or History as a teacher, and can educate in a field that I am most interested in.
I figure it's time I start taking life more seriously, now that I am living on my own, have a job and am in school, I want to be successful!


New Home, New Life, New Story

Greetings,
I have now relocated to Saskatoon, almost a month ago actually. I moved here on January 25th, and I'm really digging it.
Living with my girlfriend is super rad, my new school is pretty great, and being a bit more independent feels really nice. I'm currently seeking a job, but besides that life is basically stress free.

With moving here, I've learned a lot and unfortunately one of those things is that music will be very difficult to make her, I am in an apartment building and also have a room mate. So, to avoid causing annoyances for the people surrounding me, I think it is best I take another break, and just continue on my writing hobby instead.

With that being said, I have begun a new story. I am not sure if this one is going to be published online any time soon, I have zero intentions of rushing through this. I began writing it today and have bigger things planned for this than any of my previous works I posted up last year.

My latest writing project was a bit different than anything I had ever imagined myself doing, and it was more of a practice run than anything. I was looking at criticism on a style I had never tried, and I got just that.
Thanks to the last two projects I've done in the past year, I've learned quite a bit and am considering all of the criticism that was given to me in my new project.

It will be another work of fiction of course, and will have a lot to learn inside of it, so I hope.
We'll see how it goes, I am very excited about it and cannot wait to keep writing.

To check out my latest writing project, click this link.
Please note that this story I am working on is NOTHING like the story I linked above.

EDIT: THIS IS THE FIRST CHAPTER OF THE NEW PROJECT ON WRITERSCAFE.
Note that I do NOT plan on updating this link chapter by chapter or anything for the time being, but may change my mind on that as time passes. As it stands, here is a teaser.


Floating: A Memoir

1/19/13 by Luke
Updated 1/19/13

Hey guys.
I recently finished my latest writing project, it is a fictional memoir of a man named Derek.
The memoir focuses on Derek's addiction to cocaine, and his addiction to his girlfriend, Elisabeth.
There are many tales told within, of drug abuse, relationships, alcoholism, and so on.
I can only say so much.
I'd appreciate it if it would be read and left criticism as well, I am beginning to pick up writing again and have finished two projects this year so far.

"There she was, off in the distance. A shadow, a silhouette. A figure unknown, unknown to everybody but me. I could just tell, I just knew, I had that feeling. The girl of my dreams, the love of my life.
She stood at the edge of the bridge's rails. She looked down, looked up. I couldn't see it, but I could feel it. A menacing grin, it felt evil. So unlike her.
She looked toward me, again, I couldn't see this, but I could feel it. Her eyes pierced through mine, into my brain. She'd stare at me the entire way down. She'd fall, staring at me. Not losing that eye contact. She'd hit the water, and she'd die. Floating away from me, further and further away. All I could do was stand there and watch her, the love of my life, my soul mate, my second half. I'd watch her float, and I'd never see her again."

The story / fictional memoir can be read here:

Short Story

1/4/13 by Luke

I finished my short story. If anybody wants to read it, it is hosted on these two websites:

http://lifemonkey.deviantart.com/#/d5qfa7j

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8874919/1/Terrence-C ambrie

The story is about a young man and woman who are in love, the girl (Cambrie) lives in an unhealthy environment and is abused by her father regularly. Terrence (the boy) would do anything in the world to make her life better, and this leads to a very strange thing happening to Terrence, in order to better the future of the girl he loves.

This might sound like a shitty romance story or something girly or some shit but it isn't. Give it a fair chance if you want.

Also, gerbils.

I know it is not 2013 yet, but it may be a good time to start picking out some goals for yourself. I never have bothered with goals, but my girlfriend made goals for herself in 2012, and all of them have been accomplished.

I was thinking that perhaps it would be a good idea for me to start doing the same thing, it will give me something to strive for.

I haven't put much thought into it yet, but I am definitely going to think some things up come next month. I already have a few ideas.

On a different note, I have made some plans with music but I'm not certain I want to dedicate myself to any projects yet, I've been taking it really easy on music this year and kind of regret it, but I have started a short story last night, and it is going quite well so far. I am only one short chapter in, but I am going to try writing about a chapter a day or so, on the days where I have the free time.

I don't want to give anything away about it, just in case people on here would be interested in reading it, but it is going to be a good story providing a strong message. I am trying to use many things I have learned from reading throughout this year and put them in my own story. We'll see how it turns out I suppose.

I used to write a lot when I was a child, so it will be a good feeling to hop back into that habit.
