Julia’s Writing

I’ve hardly posted at all, which makes this blog seem rather dead.  But hark!  I am here at this moment in time to give a little update – then I’ll probably disappear again for a bit.  Such is the way with me. So, last year two great things happened: – My story The Man in [...]

Wow, it’s been so long that I actually had to look back at my previous posts to figure out my normal format.  That’s pretty sad. Anyway, I finally got to the stories requested by several of my friends!  Yay!  I have actually been working on other stories and have been diligently submitting them to various [...]

Hey party people!  It’s summer solstice!  Which means that up here in Portland it hasn’t rained ONCE today AND I saw the sun this morning.  Summer has come at last. *Sigh* Okay, onto the story.  This one is called Take Your Daughter to Work Day and it’s by me… of course.  Be forewarned: This story contains [...]

This one was inspired by my friend and reader J.K.  He posted his [...]

This story was written in response to a comment made by Grahame in response to the post where I asked you all to request I write a story for you. Grahame’s request was: “How about a sporting event with humans versus zombies (or some other non-human creatures)?” I took this to heart and created “The [...]

This story is rated R for rather gross content regarding things not discussed in polite company. If you aren’t a fan of horror, fear and lots of blood, you’re not going to like this one. I present: What Dreams May Come by Julia Scott-Douglas. Oh, and let me know what you think of this one. [...]

I’m heading out of Bandon, OR right now and have about 20 mins to check out, so I’ll make this brief. It’s the last day of my journey – I’m going to land in Portland today and there I shall stay… until July when I drive down to LA. Anyway, I saw my horoscope and [...]
