Celebrate the Small Things

Celebrate the Small Things is a weekly bloghop now hosted by Lexa Cain. The idea is to post anything you want to celebrate from the last week, no matter how small.


This week I'm celebrating:

- Game of Thrones. Oh my God, this week's episode! Right in the feels. I still can't really talk about it. Absolute genius. 

- Stuffed crust cheese feast pizza - this is my new obsession, and I don't think it's going any time soon. I'm trying not to go too crazy - everything in moderation! 

- I've been to the gym another couple of times this week, which is great for me. I plan to go again on Sunday after work, for some more swimming. 

- I just have to get through one more week then I'm off work for a week. I hope it goes quickly!

    Game of Thrones got me in the feels this week too. And that pizza sounds amazing!

    Good luck getting through this last week! And I had to laugh--after pizza crust extravaganza comes gym ;)
    I honestly have never seen Game of Thrones...heard about it everywhere but for some reason, have never seen a single bit of an episode.

    Will have to binge watch Game of Thrones when the season ends.
    Better be going to the gym if you're eating stuffed crust pizza!

    I have have never watched Game of Thrones either Miss Laura . . . . . Well it seems some of your followers are a right old boring bunch. On the bright side though I do draw a lot of dragons and use bits of Harry Potter in witches spells. . . . . enjoy that week of work and do exciting things. . .

    I'm relieved to see others haven't seen GoT either, so i'm not the only weirdo. But my "not seeing" extends to every series out in the past 5 years. So I guess I am the only weirdo... Love pizzaaa!!!!

    I love stuffed crust pizza! I haven't watched Game of Thrones either. I just don't watch much TV in general. I'll probably catch an episode at some point to see what it's like, though I'm not a big fan of stories where a lot of the characters die. Enjoy your week off!

    I must be the only person in the world not into the G of T. The violence just doesn't appeal, which probably sounds really odd coming from someone who writes murder. :)
    I'm really squeamish! Stuffed crust pizza, nope, can't do that either. To many allergies have caught up to me and I'm on the strictest diet ever. Food is so the enemy right now!
    Enjoy your week off!

WEP August - Change of Heart

Image
So I actually wrote this piece for April's WEP, but I was ill so didn't get to post it in the end. I'm quite glad, as it suits this month's theme so much more. Change of Heart ‘Are you ready for this?’ Paul asked. Brian nodded, trying to steady his shaking hands. ‘You’re the only one who can defeat him,’ Molly said. ‘We believe in you.’ She stepped back to join Paul. Brian balled his fists as he looked at the huge stone doors before him. He took a deep breath and pushed them open. Before the doors closed, Brian glimpsed Paul and Molly turn and begin to walk away. It took a moment for his eyes to adjust to the darkness inside. With a whispered word he created light in the palm of his hand, raising it so it would light up the room. It was empty apart from another doorway, much smaller than the first, hidden away in the corner. Brian marched through it and found himself in a large chamber, lit by many flickering candles mounted along the walls. Someone stoo...

The Insecure Writer's Support Group was created by Alex J. Cavanaugh as a place where writers can talk about their insecurities once a month, and receive encouragement and support from other writers. It's such an amazing group, it even has its own website now, which you can visit here . This week I'm a co-host! Be sure to go to Alex's page and visit the other people who are co-hosting.  I had such great plans for my writing this month, but not one of them came through. There were three short stories I wanted to get written, and I also wanted to get back to my NaNo edits, but none of that happened. I still have a little time for one of the short stories, though; it's for Kyra Lennon's cat anthology , and it's due Friday! Not much time to do it, but I made a commitment and I will follow through with it!  Even though I haven't got much writing done in the last month (or the couple before that!) I'm not going to let it get me down. I...

A is for Arachne and Arlee!

Before I get to my Greek Mythology part of this post, at the request of Alex J. Cavanaugh  (great idea by the way, Alex!), I'd first like to thank Arlee Bird for coming up with the challenge in the first place. If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't be taking part in this amazing experience every year. Thanks, Arlee! This is one of my favourite tales from Greek mythology, so naturally I chose it for my first letter. Arachne was the daughter of a shepherd, and was famous for the beautiful tapestries she weaved. Nymphs would travel from all over to see her work, and to watch her weave. One day, a nymph asked her if her talent was a gift from the goddess Athena. Arachne protested, saying her skill was all her own, and that her weaving was better than Athena's. Athena heard of this, and challenged the girl to a weaving contest. Both sat at their looms and began to weave, nymphs gathering round to watch. Athena weaved a tapestry based on the glories of the gods, showing the...
