Here, Have Some Poetry!

As the summer turns to fall,

It is best to stay at home.

Here and there are stormy squalls

And yet meandering we roam.

As the autumn turns to winter

And the rain disolves in snow

And we're feeling cold and bitter

Yet adventuring we go.

No cold treasure can replace

Cozy snoozing by the fire,

The smile of a familiar face,

Yet we go tramping through the mire.

Quester do you even quest!

What greater glory can you seek?

By going on this jesters jest

You will be dead within a week!

 This was for my NaNoWriMo novel, but it stands very well on its own.

So I won NaNoWriMo again this year, and now I have another rambling, 50,000 word rough draft, in medieval fantasy that will take years to edit.  I also have time to untangle my earbuds, that got tangled from listening to all that novelling music.  :O)

I'm A NaNoWriMo Winner Again This Year!

So I did NaNoWriMo, again this year!  This is my second year doing it.  If you don't know what NaNoWriMo is, its National Novel Writing Month where writers from all over the world commit to trying to the write the rough draft of a novel, (the goal is 50,000 words,) in the month of November.

If you want to understand it your best chance is to go to NaNoWriMo.org, which is their website.

At any rate I finished today, a day early with 50,049 words and meanderous mountain of story that I will be trying to edit and cursing for its madness for years to come.

I know I will have a hard time editing it because I still haven't figured out last years NaNoWriMo novel!

But some day I will get one of these monstrosities edited to my satisfaction and published, (probably self published) you wait and see.  And then it will be glorious.  In the meantime thank you for visiting my blog!  ^-^

A Tree Is Nice

I painted this with oils, mostly a quick way to up my left over green paint from another painting I'm working on.  But I quite like it, it reminds me of a book: A Tree Is Nice, which is a beautiful children's book that I really enjoyed when I was little.

Some of my better photography

Just some photography by me.

(And like most of my images, They're also on my deviantart,)

 The four paintings on top are from years ago when I took a painting class or two with my beloved Grandma.  The one below I just finished today, I think it has a nice medieval fantasy look to it.
