| 46 | Creative Writing Workshops | These twelve workshops were undertaken in 2010. Six were at Louth creative writing and the remainder at Lincoln creative writing. In the workshops the readings are available whereas in this book they are not. The best policy would be to buy the work referred to, in that way the original writers continue to benefit from their work being held up to example. Alternatively, and perhaps equally interesting, and certainly less expensive, would be for you to substitute work from your own library into the exercises. Either way I hope the workshops give you pleasure, they certainly were pleasurable to undertake for which I thank all my writing friends in Lincolnshire, and beyond. | -- | Free | View in iTunes |

| 55 | Name Dice - random names for writers | Name Dice is a simple tool to create interesting fictional names. This app includes hundreds of first and last names, resulting in nearly endless name combinations. Featured in MakeUseOf’s “4 iPhone/iPad Apps For Brainstorming Writing Ideas, Plots, & Characters” Name Dice has received numerous 5-star reviews from writers of all ages and levels! “I have NEVER been able to come up with names out of the blue when I'm in full writing mode! Sometimes I even put symbols in the text for names so I don't have to interrupt the flow of the story. With Name Dice, problem solved, quickly and easily. There's no complicated thing you need to do to open or close the app. Just a couple of taps and you have a random name for your character before you can say 'Holy Shakespeare!'” - E D Stewart “This app is definitely one of my favorites. I've never really been that good with creating names for anything but the app more than makes up for my weak point. Most if not all names fit together perfectly and sound natural. There are no forced or absurd names each name is so strong that I feel as if the character practically comes to life as soon as I read it.” - Keystat Stuck on a name? Tap the screen for a new suggestion. If you don’t like that one, tap it again! It’s that easy! Suggested exercises: Draw Me: Roll a name, sketch a picture of that person. Who Am I?: Roll a name, write down 5 likes and 5 dislikes. Family Tree: Roll a name, then make a family tree. Who are the parents? Grandparents? Friends: Roll 5 names and figure out how they all know each other. Chess club? School? Retirement home? Archenemies: Roll 2 names. What’s their conflict? Secret Crush: Roll a name. What makes this person your secret crush? Summer Vacation: Roll a name. Write a paragraph about what this person did on their summer vacation. Most Wanted: Roll a name.

| 57 | Haiku Poem | With this app, students can learn about and write haiku, a popular Japanese poem that traditionally has three lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables. They begin by brainstorming words for their poem, and then they compose their poem with attention to how many syllables they’ve written for each line. The final step allows students to customize the design of their poem with one of the provided artistic backgrounds or by uploading their own image. Saving capability allows students to return to their work and make revisions. Final work can be shared via e-mail or saved to the device's camera roll. Designed for use in the school environment, this app features a simple profile system so that multiple users can create and store their own haiku poems on the same device without confusion. This app mirrors our web-based student interactive Haiku Poems, so users familiar with one can easily adapt to the other. In fact, the two are so similar that users can send their editable .rwt files to an email address and then open their haiku poem right in the online tool! | -- | Free | View in iTunes |
