Daily Dabble - 4/30/2015

Today's Photo

I walked along the brook.  All was silent around me.  I could only hear the sound of the water as it rushed over the rocks.  I came upon the edge of the woods.  I slowly emerged and froze in place.  Standing near the edge of a cliff, stood the majestic beast.  A unicorn.  It stood gazing out over the land below, framing the massive moon behind it.

I stood still in shock.  Would it attack?  Would it flee?  I knew not.  I stayed still and watched.  It turned it's head slightly as to look behind, for a moment, but did nothing else.  It just stood and watch, as did I.  We both remained there at the edge until the unicorn slowly walked away.  Paying no mind to me.  Soon I followed its lead and left the cliff, following the brook back.

Daily Dabble - 4/29/2015

Today's Photo

Two sisters on the opposite side of power.  One is light, the other dark.  One controls the weather, causing snow to fall.  The dark sister commands the animals.  They sit opposite each other, but not warring.  Although, they are different they work together.  What is odd is that their symbols don't go with their personality.  The light sister has a crescent moon, while her sister has a full moon.  Did something happen and the two sister switch roles at some point?  Who's to know.  No one can asked them as they float high above in the sky.  The sisters watch over and help whom they wish, but what does that help cost to the person they helped?

Daily Dabble - 4/28/2015

Today's Picture

Busy streets.  Mules, oxen, and horses pulling wagons through the streets.  The old lady yelling out her prices for some fruit from her farm outside the city.  People bowing as some noble walks the streets.  The Queen and King sitting in their thrones as they greet far away dignitaries.  Children running along the streets, barely missing the busy traffic. 

The mountains help to keep the city cool in its valley.  Miners digging into the mountains finding new ores to big up.

Daily Dabble- 4/27/2015

April 27, 2011

Storms rolling in.  Lives lost.  Darkness covered the state of Alabama.  People helping each other.  People fighting to get to each other.  Homes became rumble.  This day left a scar on the state, but it's slowly recovering.  Nature has grown and cover what it can, while man has rebuilt cities.

The world turned dark, but we over came it.  No matter what team we cheer for come the fall, we all come together to help each other.  Mother nature may take what she wishes, but we will always stay strong.  At least, now we all pay more attention to the weather, because of that day.
_______________________________________________________________________________________

I want to explain this dabble.  If you don't know.  On April 27, 2011, Alabama was hit with multiple tornadoes.  A lot of lives were lost.  We had a F5 that came basically from the Mississippi state line to Birmingham.  I was two  miles away from it when it came through.  We're still rebuilding, but there are places you can't even tell it came through now.  Of course, there are places you can see the damage, but that's trees along the interstate.

I'll try to get this out earlier tomorrow.  Thanks for reading.

Daily Dabble - 4/26/2015

 Since this is the first post, let me explain the idea behind this.  The idea is to find something, be it a word, video, or picture to write about.  So here's the first one of the new series.  I'll always post a link or the actual thing as best I can so you can see what I'm talking about.  I should warn you that some times they won't make complete sense.

Spring

Birds returning to nest.  Birds flocking in the trees.  Birds singing in the trees.  Squirrels running around once again.  Animals waking up from their "long winter nap. (1)"  The grass is becoming green.  The trees are slowly returning to life.  Flowers begin to push their way up through the warming dirt.

Rain pours down.  Rivers overflow.  Winds blow.  Homes lost.  Lives lost.  Spring isn't always sunshine and rainbows.  It also brings with it storms that cause so much damage to the earth and us, but we rebuild as does nature.  It is all part of life in the South.  Well, the entire United States.

A Semi-Sneak Peek

So as I have said I completely rewrote Chapter 10 of The Goblin Princess.  To celebrate that I actually have the chapter ready to release, I thought I would let you guys see the original idea for the chapter. 

I hope to have it ready for next Sunday, not tomorrow.  I have a chapter ready for tomorrow.  Have no fear, my lovely readers.  You'll have your weekly release.

 So enjoy.

Possibly a New Series

Okay so starting next week, I am now going to have a daily goal for myself.  Now why am I telling you guys this?  I'm telling you guys about this because it has to do with writing.

Starting this Sunday, April 26, 2015; I am going to make myself write something for about five minutes a day.  Well, at least five minutes.  It'll either be a chapter for any of my current stories or something else.

I may actually post them, if you guys like.  I would post them here and not on fanfiction.net and/or wattpad.com.  Unless of course, it's part of a chapter or if I think it might be a good idea for a future story.  Sorry, I can't let you guys see everything.

Mostly it would be an exercise to the jucies flowing and hopefully get me more in the writing mood.
