This is picture number five in my animal collection. I worked on this today during another one of
our snow storms. I can see by taking a photo of it that there is still a little work to be done on it but for the most part I am satisfied with it. It gave me something to do today since we didn't have school
today. (Actually I did the drawing and background over the weekend)
I wonder if we will have school tomorrow? I hear that we are going to have low temps with
wind chills around -30. I am thankful for a nice warm apartment.
Thanks to those who have read my stories. I really appreciated your comments. I wish there were
still magazines where you could send short stories to be published. I don't know of any, so if you do, please let me know. Actually, for myself I dislike reading short stories....they always seem to end to
soon so I much prefer books...and yes, I read a lot....something like 4 or 5 books a week. What is your favorite...a story, a book or a movie?
Well, it is time for dinner....thinking of making a pot of chili...sounds good on a cold snowy day!
Ruth, I feel like I should put you in touch with my friend, Brenda (Brenda Christmas). She is a writer and works with other writers. There is also a group on Blogger who write stories and have contests. Check in with Cynthia Maddox http://writing-my-life-away.blogspot.com/2014/01/what-theyre-saying.html and Brenda is http://christmaswithbrenda.blogspot.com/2014/01/word-for-2014-intentional.html. I just think you need to pursue your writing! They will make good connections for you, I think. I love your paintings, too. You are a very talented woman!
ReplyDeleteThanks Terri....I am already following Cynthia and I have added Brenda.
DeleteI don't often read short stories either, but sometimes I read novelettes. Although I love reading, the Kindle is the only way for me to have the large library that I have. Hope you find a way to publish your stories, maybe digitally, and keep on painting.
ReplyDeleteI love my Kindle too. I might just save the stories until I have a collection and then try to publish them digitally. Right now I am working on a series of paintings and then am going to try to have a show...that's one of my goals for this year. Thanks for your comment.
DeleteIt is gorgeous! You are so talented.
