About me - Rupert Flagg


When I was a little girl, I used to read the King James Bible under the covers by flashlight. I want to understand "THE WORD".

I've written something everyday of my life, for as long as I can remember.

Relationships & Family > New & Old Friends Class Reunions: Torture or punishment

The email looked harmless enough...blah blah High school Reunion Committee. The writer was someone with a name like Muffy or Margaret, I can't remember. I clicked on the subject - "Your Reunion packet is ready. Please update your information." I began to read, blah, blah, blah...wait...30th high school reunion?!? Wait, surel...

Creative Writing > Novel Excerpts Novel excerpts: A second chance at love

Audra's divorce was only fourteen days and eight hours old when she decided to walk to the corner Laundromat in an attempt to recreate her laundry day. Arthur had always done the laundry with her. It was the memories of the laughter and the resulting sex on the laundry room floor that had caused her to journey out on this co...

Relationships & Family > Divorce Psychology Empty bed syndrome: Coping with the absence of a lover

Empty bed is not a syndrome - it's a statement of fact - I sleep alone., if you don't count my 5 year-old. I thought I'd be used to it by now, but alas, I'm not. "Honey, move over." "Uh, can I have some of the covers?" "Babe, turn over you're snoring." "Man I wish I had my own room!" These are things I wish I had the chance ...

Entertainment > Movie Genres Top five movies of all time

"Top Five Movies of ALL Time" it's kinda like trying to pick the greatest story ever told, but I've decided to throw my two cents into this vast ocean of brilliant writers and say with assurance, "I'll be your huckleberry." I won't bore you with stating the obvious about different people, different tastes. I'm going to point...

Creative Writing > Memoirs Memoirs: Death of a grandparent

There is no remembrance of earlier things; And also of the later things which will occur, There will be for them no remembrance among those who will come later still. My grandmother died when I was just turning 14. She had breast cancer that spread to her liver and back then all they did was give her something for the pain. ...

Religion & Spirituality > Meditation & Prayer Why we should sing praises to the Lord

Psalm 9:11 Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion; Declare among the peoples His deeds. (NASB) We praise God, not for his benefits, but for our own. Praise motivates and uplifts. When we set our minds on the good and the bad it causes our hearts to be lifted. Praise is a multifaceted tool. It is a reminder of where we'...

Religion & Spirituality > Heaven, Hell & Afterlife Can a loving God create hell?

Revelation 20:15 If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire. Isaiah 14: 12How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! 13For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I ...

Creative Writing > Memoirs Memoirs: Tribute to my first love

It was just another long day spent sitting in front of the computer, playing yet another computer game. It was almost as boring as the last sentence I've written here. I'd decided to go to bed, when it crossed my mind to check the inbox of yet another social networking site, when I saw it - His name in the sender's space. I ...

Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Best friends

Sandi is my bestest friend. To be totally honest I actually have three best friends, four if you count Sandi and she is the best of the best. We don't talk on the phone everyday, nor do we see each other more than twice a year, but I can count on her for everything. We live maybe 5 miles from each other and have been friends...

Parenting & Pregnancy > Parenting (Other) Does your child need birthday parties to feel he/she is important?

Birthday parties take on a whole new meaning for children who are in foster care. My three birth children could take or leave the party, as long as the gifts were from the pre-written lists they'd prepared. It'd been planned that general parties would stop at the tenth birthday. We'd adopted the quinceanera after seeing one ...
