Welcome to Naomi's fictional fantastical adventures and more!
Hello and welcome back to another Monstrous Monday. Today, we'll be taking a look at a creature that is similar to the merfolk / mermaid / merman we dug into last week: the Siren! Not to be confused with the loud, blaring alarm coming from emergency vehicles or warning calls from emergency towers, this beastie … Continue reading MM – Sirens
And we're back to another Monstrous Monday. I figured I'd finally touch on one of the other creatures in the actual header image so why not mermaids / mermen, otherwise known as merfolk. Keep in mind these creatures are different from sirens and the like, which might be a good topic for next week in … Continue reading MM – Merfolk
And we're back for another Monstrous Monday! I'm on a role! As promised, today we're going to be taking a look at the cockatrice, a creature that is as deadly and evil as the basilisk we took a look at last week. For the sake of separating these two critters, I will be doing a … Continue reading MM – Cockatrice
Yeah... that whole new year, new leaf thing got off to a great start, didn't it? XD Anyway... Welcome back to another Monstrous Monday! At least I'm getting to another post in the same month this time. 😉 Moving in the right direction! So, to the topic at hand. I kept trying to figure out … Continue reading MM – Basilisk
New year, new leaf. At least that's what I keep trying to tell myself. I'm not big on making New Year's resolutions. I've learned I don't have a great track record with keeping them. But that doesn't mean some things aren't worth trying again. And again. And again. And as many times as it might … Continue reading MM – Ouroboros
Narrated by Naomi On to another Monstrous Monday. Perhaps this one is largely because I actually mentioned a phoenix in my previous post but why not? Welcome to a short discussion about everyone's favorite firebird! And even if they're not your favorite, they're still amazing in their own right. If you've seen the Harry Potter … Continue reading MM – Phoenix
Ah yes. The tried and true monster of the night. Vampires. I'm sure we all know the basics and while I could find resources and go on at length about them, I wanted to take a look at a few of the common traits and then how you can sort of play with them. Personally … Continue reading Vampires
Welcome to another Monstrous Monday! I am late but this would be a sorry / not sorry situation. My muse decided to visit me for my current WIP and ran out the clock on Monday. lol So here we are on a makeup Tuesday. But back to our continuing series, we'll be taking a look … Continue reading Monstrous Monday – Hydra
Welcome to another Monstrous Monday! Thank you for joining me! Today we're going to continue our dragon jaunt and take a look at Wyverns, the more commonly known beasties from today's entertainment and media. In all fairness, there is no historical or legitimate difference that I can see in respect to the terminology of a … Continue reading Monstrous Monday – Wyverns
Welcome to another Monstrous Monday! Since I didn't get any suggestions or requests for the next beastie, I have defaulted to another one of my all-time favorites: Dragons. You may have noticed 'True Dragons' in the parentheses in the title and this is because the term dragon is an umbrella one. Beneath it, there's a … Continue reading Monstrous Monday – Dragons (True Dragons)
Master story structure and write a book readers will love.
It would be a disaster to not give me a read!
