Keith Clinansmith
Keith Clinansmith, his work is absolutely refreshing due to it’s sharp and realistic nature. I am so excited to be working with such a writer. Clinansmith creates characters that become so real to you, you find yourself lost in his words and hoping the story will continue on forever. And when you come to the end, you crave just a little bit more as you feel so connected to his stories. Take a look for yourself, you’ll find you cannot pull away. Here is a sample of his work:
Jonathan Thomas: A Conversation With An Angel by Keith Clinansmith
It is too true that beautiful woman have trouble finding love, for their beauty is the curse that intimidates men. It is also true that every woman I meet, I believe is single until she tells me otherwise.
Talk to her, I told myself. Like an idiot I said the first question that I thought and it flew from my lips like only a cheap pick-up line could.
“Come here often.”
I’m a tool!
“Not really.” She said turning her head to face me.
“Wow! You’re beautiful”
Whoa! Where did that come from?
It was quite beneficial to be so blunt cause she smiled this time so lovingly that I felt paralyzed again. Her flawless pearly whites blinded me while she said just one word, “Thanks.”
I break eye contact with her and reach for my bottled water. Now I can think and not just stare at her like an ogling fool.

I hope you enjoyed this sneak peek. Check back for more work by our other writers and artists! If you’re interested in joining

We’re looking for writers and artists of all types to express themselves, show the world what is really going on in your life, what is really in your soul. When you strip away all of the worries of what people will say, and the fear of people knowing the truth about you, what will people see? What is it that you don’t stay to your friends, what is it that you don’t tell your parents, when the door closes behind you where do your thoughts flow…? This is where the walls and the fears are torn down and you show us your strong truths, good or bad it’s a truth and it’s beautiful…more
