Comedy Week
After yesterday’s post and no nasty April Fools that I didn’t find funny myself, I think I’ll let the smiles roll in all week. Taking my own advice, I need to laugh more often. Working away and even with friends, I tend to lean toward the serious side. What better way to brighten someone else’sContinue reading “Comedy Week”
Comic Relief
Everyone needs a moment of humor in their lives and when I think about us writers I have to smile because I know some of you listen to audio books while you drive just like me. Picture yourself in slow moving traffic and you’re into your new audio book. A funny line sends you intoContinue reading “Comic Relief”
Game Change
This weekend I had to return to my handmade crafts and I finally made a change that was needed in some of my social media accounts. I separated my muses and now my art and booktok live in separate worlds. I do like to share all the different I create but I realized that timeContinue reading “Game Change”
April Fools
The first of April might make some people hide from their friends or not answer the phone because it’s synonymous with pranks. It’s because of this day, that I created a different kind of reminder on what to do today. Instead of spreading mischief, I make it a point to try to make someone’s day,Continue reading “April Fools”
Adulting Writers
My intentions at the start of this week were to be as productive with my time, as every week is but my writer mind get distracted by other people’s stories. Having enough time to read new authors and write, mixed in with other interests makes daily choices difficult. At the start of each day IContinue reading “Adulting Writers”
Animal Behavior
We touched on some fantasy ideas yesterday but what if our hero isn’t all human, or human at all? Those who writer about shifters and beasts that don’t exist understand the question. Themes like human and animals have existed in all native cultures. There was no separation between man, animal, and nature. The earth andContinue reading “Animal Behavior”
Miniature Fantasy
My world is still miniature this week as I spend time surrounded by my art supplies and needle tools. Trying to make things the size of a fingertip or smaller take more time that big sculptures. All this creating got me thinking about literary worlds. This week, Alice must have taken a drink of theContinue reading “Miniature Fantasy”
Marching Out
I’m ready to march out of this month and into a warmer month. Our yo-yo weather that happens when season begin to change really do give us cabin fever in Minnesota. When we think it’s going to warm up, it snows the next day. Those who don’t live here will think they’ve moved somewhere extremeContinue reading “Marching Out”
Challenges
At the start of this week, I set a goal to push myself and use my own prompts to boost creativity. I decided to create some new miniature sculpture pieces and I stopped using the excuse that I was too tire or there wasn’t enough time. I changed one habit, my daily writing, over theContinue reading “Challenges”
Dual Rowing
This week I’m rowing between two countries and I just rowed my writing boat back to France. My ears are surrounded by a new television series about a top real estate family in Paris. L’Agence has me hooked. I don’t know if seeing all the luxurious places for sale are a good thing because myContinue reading “Dual Rowing”
Torn
Remember, that writing prompt that I shared about a Fae Warrior world? Well, I feel torn between two worlds. My head is going back and forth between the Fae and the granddaughter in Paris. I feel like I’m in a literary tennis match. I don’t know which muse will win. One thing I’ve learned overContinue reading “Torn”
