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
Narrated by Naomi It took me much longer than I intended for it to and it went in very different directions than I had previously imagined, not to mention significantly longer, but I finished and I'm happy and quite proud of myself. I wrote the first chapter on October 21st of last year and finished … Continue reading Finished my current FF WIP!
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
While I am in no way a great actor of various voices - that honor belongs to my brother, at the behest of my mother, I would like to narrate this fascinating story, as she got a great kick out of it when I first recited it for her. I may not have a repertoire … Continue reading “Some scientists think” Funny Story – Narrated
Hello and welcome back to another World Building Sunday after a fairly long break. Apologies for that. I had a couple real world things pop up that sort of laid me low for creativity and writing purposes. Moving and ending and beginning teaching sessions will occasionally do that to you. XD But I'm back and … Continue reading World Building: Androids, Cyborgs, and Robots
