Reading, Writing, Pondering: Big Life Themes, Literature, Contemporary/Historical Issues |
Welcome to the 14th century, in a farflung outpost of the Holy Roman Empire, and a new Convent outpost of the terrrifically powerful Roman Catholic Church. Sound historically dull? Hopefully not so--for this is NOT an ordinary 14th Century Convent. Back after a six-year hiatus.... From NaNoWriMo historical Supernatural novels in Scotland, Michigan, South Alabama and historical horror in Standwood Station, GA-to the Phantom Northern Woods-to singlehandedly refighting the American Civil War-to exploring Social Justice and standing for First Amendment rights under the U.S. Constitution-we deal out horror, Supernatural, Historical, fantasy, mystery, and more. We do not fear outspokeness. And always, always, always, We Do History. Find it here. We write it. We read it. We hold strong opinions. We orate. Meanwhile, whether we're writing or just reading, we love to rave about books and authors right here! |
Prompt: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish? This will be exceptionally short. None. I don't do holiday meals. I rarely eat meat. I certainly won't eat pork products and I seldom eat beef. (I occasionally eat ground beef on a soft taco shell on the evenings we have tacos for supper. Mostly overloaded cheese.) Tomorrow circumstances allow me to remain at home alone, while Thanksgiving dinner takes place elsewhere (for which I'm thankful). But I'll have a bowl of the Simple Pudding, probably. Now if only someone would make me a rhubarb pie. |
Is there a TV show/movie/book from your childhood that you still enjoy today? Tell us why it resonates with you. STAR TREK! CLASSIC, ORIGINAL STAR TREK! Yep, you got it. IF I had access to watch it again, would I? Probably, maybe so. Also One Step Beyond, Alfred Hitchcock, original Outer Limits, all that fun stuff. Vincent Price films, Hammer Films. Yep. All that sci fi and horror and sci fi and horror any mystery books is why I am as I am. And books?: Paperback Gothic suspense. Rebecca. Sci Fi. Mystery. Oh, yes. Bring it on. |
