Well Wednesdays are dull. I mean, after Tuxday anything's going to be a let down, right? Well after seeking suggestions from you all for far longer than I care to think about, I decided to simply act on a possibly random comment, and run with it… You can therefore blame today's selections on Jacy, as it's the result of her comment the other day "Oh, I do love him scruffy…" So with that in mind, how's this lot work for you Jacy? *small thud* scr … Read More
I wrote this for Halloween last year…what can I say, my Grandmothers would have LOVED it.
" How did you get so good at carving pumpkins? " " Practice." Enid told her Granddaughter as she delicately put the tip of her butcher's knife against the side pumpkin's blank face. " Lots and lots of practice." She pushed the knife into he pumpkin's flesh and as she broke the skin she told Aubrey, " I love that smell." " That pumpkin smell?" Enid looked over the pumpkin and said, " That what?" " That pumpkin smell." Enid shrugged and then pulled … Read More
At my other blog there short stories, links and Halloween images galore I’ll be posting new work on the first of October so be sure to check back again soon!
I was at the movies last weekend and they showed short clips- a couple were okay but one was a stupid- it was about these guys who made snuff films.
The ending was predictable, the beginning was predictable and I couldn’t tell you about the middle because I was busy eating my popcorn -what can I say, I haven’t been to the movies in ages and I realized as I started eating my theatre popcorn how much I really love the stuff.
So, as I tuned into the short film clips they were showing I thought to myself- you know what else I miss?
I was concerned I would not be be inspired this year
because I have been distracted by the ‘real world’.
Now
my only concern is that my monsters will not be able to measure up to the less than savory characters I have been crossing paths with in my day to day life.
That I suppose, will be the challenge I have to meet as a writer.
For the most part I liked the Blair Witch Project.
My only criticism of the movie was that I hated those kids and I kept wondering why it was taking days for a witch with ultra mega evil powers to take down three whiney little brats.
So by the time she showed up and the weird stuff started to happen I was too relieved to be scared unlike the rest of the audience who were clearly on Team Cry Baby.
Now.
Had those students been more like this guy- I may have had some sympathy for the Witch’s victims.
Once it hit a tree about five feet away from where I was standing.
The next time I was almost hit I was out in the woods and this time the lighting hit the ground right next to me- I was fine until I heard someone scream, ” Wow, is that woman DEAD?”
So of course I start looking for a dead person.
It took me a minute to realize they were talking about me.
I’ve also been electrocuted at least a half-dozen times.
