Snow last night; sun today. Moisture for the dry earth of my chosen state. not much here but western Kansas and the Nebraska border lands had a real downfall.So once again He shows us that he can care, but I fear the summer heat which mimics the heat of his wrath.Yet his plans for us are always good if not easy to understand or endure.
The vikings on the history channel has an avid viewer in me and also the Bible. What interests me is the Christianity of the latter side by side with the brutality and paganism of the former. A contrast to be sure and both are great viewing. The Bible retells familiar tales and well enacted but somehow lacks the passion and presentation of the Vikings. Perhaps the Vikings attracts me as it is a rendition of the era that rings true and one that is unknown to us. The Bible also rings true do not misread me but at times, it seems serene and calm. Not a bad thing but the bloody swords of the Vikings clashing is more energetic. Cecil De Mille's epics may not have been accurate to text but they exuded passion and drama. One felt part of the tale, and in this new rendering that power to feel part of it is for me anyway lacking.
So I need to get to the needles and work on something. Much of it has to wait until Tuesday when I will steek and spend most of t day in the shop getting ufo's in line to finish,and some rows on the aran. Tomorrow te shop is closed so house and papers are the target. Will also get some naps in and some writing other tan this.
Writing now there's an item. Today on CBS' Sunday morning they had a segment on a 71 year old erotic romance write. she plans her scenes with the use of barbie dolls to see if what she writes is possible. Hmmm! Her publisher and she insist te story is more important than the sex but the samples she read put much emphasis on the words. Porn or erotic romances what is the difference? Should I try this genre? After all according to the report several writers earn a million or more a year. Not to brag I think I could do as well as 50 shades in the writing as being an English prof I should have better style but do I want to be remembered for that?
Dogs are settled. time to check email and work on some other writings.
