Rebecca L. Mate replied to Richard A. McCullough's discussion It's all about "Story" in the group Writers
"Richard, I agree that a story has the purpose of evoking an emotional and intellectual experience in the mind and heart of the reader. A few examples of each of these would be helpful."

Rebecca L. Mate's Written Works

Artist in Your Closet

There's a painter in your closet, holding paintbrush tight;

You'd. better let him out if you like your T-shirts white



There's a writer in your closet and one day you'll see

A novel written on the walls behind the robe and dungarees



There's a singer in your closet so open up the door

Or your guests may wonder what that muffled sound is for.



There's a poet in your closet looking for a rhyme

You'd better let him out; he'll have a better… Continue

The Art of Art - Short Story

Art has always been my first and foremost love. My dedication to artistic endeavors consumes most of my time now and I have no spare moments to share with others.

If my pen, pencil or brush make no connection with paper or canvas, then I am less alive. I teach merely to make ends meet, enduring the pain of viewing the lack of skill, the bumbling, the lack of agility with the craft by those who likely will never capture and tame the muse, let alone sell their work. Oh, there have been those… Continue

New Rhinoceros Children's Book

I've been having a great year and creating lots of new things with Jenny. Over Christmas I was missing my guy Jack, so I wrote a book for him, then Jenny illustrated it. It's called The Toughskin Rhinoceros Wrangler Company. It's a simple story about the lengths we are willing to go to to see the people we miss. And there are dancing rhinoceroses. Here's some of Jenny's art…See More

The Threshold Bookcast : Chapter 13 : Keys To Ascension

Chapter 13 : Keys To AscensionRahu Lüli, the teenage monk from Kõrgus, is once again the central character of the weekly instalment of the Threshold Bookcast. This time, we find the novice reminiscing as he explores unknown territory uphill, following a hunch that has occurred to him prior to the morning ritual. « « Gazing up, the apprentice had detected an odd detail. Something was decidedly wrong about the view, and it couldn't but have a meaning. Over the years, the pitch black walls of…See More

While my teacher is discussing and writing on the board, I am in my chair at the back busy in sketching.In that time I believed that learning could not be taken only from school, and knowledge is not only about speaking and writing but also drawing.My mother exasperated every time she checks my notebook because what she found was not my homework but those faces of my favorite anime like…See More
