Amarynthe fought with her dress as it clung to her legs in awkward clumps. Her knees pulled at the durable material and it threatened to bunch and tangle at any given moment, only fueling her irritation. But it did not stop her. Not at all. Her path took her away from the tower, away from … Continue reading TMMD Chapter Four: Secrets Laid Bare
WW – The Comma
Welcome to another Wordy Wednesday. I came across this topic a few days ago and decided it would make a nice discussion point for today. Commas! The semi-bane of my existence. That being said, the author / blogger who I am borrowing tidbits from can be found in the links below. She gives a better … Continue reading WW – The Comma

World Building – Characters
Welcome to another World Building Sunday. Thank you for joining me! I wasn't sure what I wanted to write about today but I just stumbled upon an interesting blog that talks about Character Building. When you're building your world, your characters aren't immediately relevant to that space, but you can certainly take inspiration from the … Continue reading World Building – Characters
WW – Describing Mammals
Welcome to another (late) Wordy Wednesday. Thank you for joining me. haha So, following my thought process from last week, we want to explore animals a bit more by breaking them down into the general categories.

TMMD Chapter Three: Ancient’s Dust
Paper whispered beneath her fingertips as Amarynthe turned another page and peered at the finely scrawled words through narrowed eyes. Magelights stationed around the room helped her see better, though if she opened the windows, the sunlight streaming in through the fourth floor would have been sufficient. Unfortunately, sunlight was damaging to the books so … Continue reading TMMD Chapter Three: Ancient’s Dust

Creativity and Other Stuff
So, today isn't going to be a particularly lengthy or focused entry, but... considering it's the one month anniversary since I started to get this blog back off the ground again (or on it's feet - whichever you prefer), and it's my birthday, I figured I'd at least say I hope that everyone has a … Continue reading Creativity and Other Stuff
WW – Describing Animals
Welcome to another Wordy Wednesday. Yes, I'm late, but here we go anyway! Today, I'd like to take a look at something we're all quite familiar with: Animals! Now at first glance, that obviously seems like an easy one. "I know what animals are. I have one!" Or two or three or four... Full disclosure, … Continue reading WW – Describing Animals
