Seasons Within Seasons - New blog post! Check out the ice in my driveway. Link in bio. #druidry #druidism #druid #polytheist #winterBee and I had a lovely day in Clayton despite the frigid wind. We were excited to see icebergs coursing down the St. Lawrence. The ducks seemed to like them too! #stlawrenceriver #claytonny #thousandislands #ducks #nny #iloveny #winterI ruminated on today’s prompt, “Least fav book to screen,” for awhile. I recall enjoying the movie version of “The Count of Monte Cristo” back in the early 2000s. I liked it so much I read the book in high school, and quickly realized how much they changed the story! It was the first time I really reflected on the book vs. film debate. This remains one of my favorite books of all time. #februaryauthorwipchallenge As for my writing progress, here’s a shot of my new planner to help me organize myself as I pursue my goals. My handwriting is sloppy, and I rarely use a ruler. I’m going for practicality over looks. Kudos to those who have time for making theirs pretty! #writethrufeb #writingcommunity #books #shelfie #writing #ameditingWow, it’s February 20th already?! Today’s first prompt asks what we consider to be the best book to screen. 📚 I’m very fond of The Lord of the Rings. I think everyone involved did a fantastic job bringing that epic to life! It remains a defining part of my adolescence. #februaryauthorwipchallenge Finally, here’s a photo of my elderly cat, Esmerelda. She’s not been feeling well lately. I’ve been trying to keep her comfortable between editing my book, cleaning the house, and entertaining my daughter. #writethrufeb #amwriting #amediting #writingcommunity #books #shelfie #catsofinstagramBlog Update! Three Things Thursday: Keep Making Offerings, a New Excerpt, and “Slow Seeing”. Link in profile! #druid #druidry #druidsofinstagram #shrines #polytheism #polytheistsofinstagram #animism #amwriting #paganauthors #paganliterature #witchlitMy author shoutout is for my friend @kabang185, author of “No Saving Throw.” I read her geeky cozy mystery the weekend I attended a writing conference last summer. It was such a fun read, and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys tabletop gaming! Kristin has been kind enough to chat about writing and offer guidance from time to time. I admire what she’s accomplished! #februaryauthorwipchallenge For day 19 of #writethrufeb, I’m giving you a snippet of a cringeworthy poem I wrote in college. It was published in our literary magazine, but I’m super embarrassed by it now. I was writing before that, though. I used to dictate stories for my mother to record before I knew how to write! I’ve always enjoyed making stories and, as you can see, mythology has inspired me for a long time. #writing #paganauthor #angstypoetry #writershoutoutCurrently Reading

Is that snow or mist? We had mist today, from above it looked like sea rolling into the valleys.
It’s snow. We’re having a blizzard today! Your sea mist sounds lovely.
in which case… eek.
Heehee! As long as we can stay inside, it’s not too bad. It’s part of winter in Upstate NY.
Wow, that’s a lot of snow! Stay warm!
