I is for Imagination and Inspiration

Part of the reason why I love working with children, is because of their imagination. I find it inspiring and that's where I get a lot of my novels from. When I used to watch triplets, we had come up with this very elaborate story about a princess who had to save a prince.

...Of course, while making this story up, we used their puppets and toys to create the world and went through the whole story...even the ending. The only thing we didn't have was a toy pelican. That pelican was very crucial to our plot.

I actually plan on typing up this story for them one day. It will probably be something for the four of us to enjoy, even if they might not remember most of it. 

I is for IAMDYNAMITE. Hate the video but I love the song. 

Keeping Up and New Craft Ideas

So, it's been a few days since I last posted on here but I've been unexpectedly busy with work. I'm still working on things for work since the girls and I are going to make our own board game. I'm rather excited about this board game. They are going to help me color it and everything.

Now, I have all of these wooden blocks and a plan for them. I'm actually working on it right now. It will be rather fun once I finish. I'm using them with my writing stuff and will probably post them on here and my other blog than I need to start working on...yeah, I haven't gotten that far with it.

New project for my terracotta pots

I also bought these little terracotta pots (and I do mean little) for something that I'll be posting in my shop once I find my SD card for my Canon Rebel. I hate when I lose these things.

Next, I'll be working on my writing workshop that I bought a few years ago called How To Think Sideways by Holly Lisle. I think, as a writer, she presents very good material that I find helpful. I love the worksheets she gives too. It is a different approach from what I normally do.

Anyway, I'd better get back to working on my latest craft.

I hope everyone has a good weekend!

100 Themes Challenge

Click image for full size.

A lot of people have seen these 100 themes challenges before, since they are all over the internet. My sister and I complied this list and we are going to try to complete it at random. Well, for me it's random. She's doing her in order from 1 to 100. I don't think I could do it like that. I like to be as random and disorganized as possible.. I work better that way.

Anyway, after each theme is completed, we are going to post it on our blogs. Mine will be on this blog and my sisters will be on her blog. Hopefully, we'll be able to finish the challenge and not quit while in the middle of it.

The Weather Isn't On My Side

I've been trying to work on my train case but it keeps raining or it's too cold. So instead, I've been working on other things. I've been sketching out things I'm going to be adding to my shop for the season. They should be up by this weekend.

My On The Rocks characters will be posted soon in sets along with their homes. Should be fun. I'm also going to start working on this novel planning website that my sister and I talked about. Not much is going into it yet since I'm currently preparing myself and helping others get ready for National Novel Writing Month. I'm writing blog posts for a Deviant Art Group called Wrimo-Writers. I have to start making plotting posts.

At the moment, I'm distracted with the TV show Merlin. I'm obsessed.
