Writing spiders are real creatures who spin their webs in zig zag patterns, resembling writing. Wednesday, we are discussing the similarities of this non-poisonous arachnid to  being an author.

The web of the yellow garden spider is distinctive: a circular shape up to 2 feet (60 cm) in diameter, with a dense zigzag of silk, known as a stabilimentum, in the center.

To construct the web, several radial lines are stretched among four or five anchor points that can be more than three feet apart. The radial lines meet at a central point. The spider makes a frame with several more radial lines and then fills the center.

Join Kim tonight for a comparison of human acts of structuring and plotting our short stories and novels and the behavior of the Writer Spider as she spins her zig zag web.
