I also want to thank ~imigin for being a loyal reader... It's very encouraging.

I finally finished part II of my short story series "Love's Flame". Part III is underway... Well, I have the first sentence written, anyway. Writing can be such a process. It comes in waves. Apparently the muse likes to go surfing.

Critique is welcome. Simple comments would be wonderful.

I looked at my journal and realized that I REALLY needed to update...

I'm back in school. It feels great! I'm going for my Bachelors in Psychology, but right now only electives are being offered, so I'm taking an Art History class and a Dynamics of Adult Living class, which is a Psych elective where we learn about growing old. Fun. *note the sarcasm*

I'm a writer. It's who I am. An artist too, but mainly a writer. I've kinda been on hiatus for a bit, as my muse decided to run away. But now that she's discovered that I'm the only one who feeds her those yummy PB&J sandwiches, she's starting to show up a bit more. I've started a short story series, which will hopefull be uploaded to soon. Love's Flame is the first. I'm not sure how many there will be, but I'm working on the second.

Home life: not so good. But getting better. We'll see how things go.

On an uplifting note, my fiance and I finally set a wedding date! 15 September 2010!! And we're hoping to get married in the same place we got engaged: EPCOT! I can't wait to be married... It will be so nice to finally have him here permanantly. This long distance thing is really starting to suck.

1. You must choose only ONE of your OCs. Do it again if you wanna use another OC.
2. Your OC must answer every question as truthfully as possible.
3. Title the journal as "OCs Quiz (your OCs name)".
4. When you're done, tag as many people as you want.

Everyone loves features, right? I certainly do!
I do a unique kind of feature every Tuesday, and I'd like to invite you all to be a part of it. It's called Artist Connections, and it's hosted at a wonderful place called Harmony Pub.

About Harmony Pub
Legacy Writers of Harmony Pub is a MySpace poetry group, full of writers helping writers to succeed. We don’t feel that you have to be college educated to have something to say. Everyone is more than welcome to participate in any of our challenges, workshops, or discussions.

Our goal is to build a legacy of writing that we’d be proud for our family and friends to read. You won’t find slam poetry on this site, or pornography. We do not discriminate against any writing, however, this site is not for that purpose. We do not engage in hate writing of any kind. We do not discriminate against people of color or nationality, people with disabilities or anyone! We believe that everyone has value and we would like to meet you and share your thoughts with you. Writing from the heart is what we’re about.

You will be able to meet many published writers here. They will be happy to talk to you about their work. In addition, some of our Legacy Writers are also artists, photographers and song writers.

So, come in, have a seat by the fire and enjoy an ale or two. Share with us your poetry in the true bardic tradition. Make a friend or two, and enjoy your stay!


Artist Connections
Our Pub hosts and patrons are full of many wonderful and creative talents, and some of us don the title of Artist as well as Legacy Writer. We feel that art, as well as literature, is an important creative outlet, and as such, we encourage it whole-heartedly. Therefore, in an effort to promote the beauty of creative expression, we have incorperated an Artist Feature as a part of our Tuesday challenges, entitled Artistic Connections

Every week, we will choose an artist either from MySpace or deviantART(dA) and feature a few pieces of their work. The challenge is to write based on the works that we feature, thus combining a picture challenge with a featue. Of course, we strongly encourage the patrons to visit the artist's gallery and enjoy more of their beautiful work than what we feature at the challenge. The pieces featured are always linked back to their page on dA, and there is always a link directly to the artist's homepage and gallery.

Our hope is that Artistic Connections will continue to draw a new crowd into the Pub, create a lasting cooperation between MySpace and dA, as well as supply the variety that our patrons crave. The goal at the Pub has always been to encourage and support literature and the arts in any way possible, and we believe that this could be the start of something grand!

What to Join Us?
We would love to feature any of you who are willing to have your work posted outside of dA. As previously mentioned, all featured pieces are linked back to their dA pages, and there are direct links to both the artist's homepage and their gallery. We never post a feature without the consent of the artist, and we are happy to work within limitations and rules of any stock used in the featured artwork. For a reference of what one of our challenges look like, we invite you to check out today's feature: Artist Connections for 3 Feb 09. Please consider becoming one of our featured artists... The poetry created with such inspiration is beyond words.
