His order and neatness in appearance was something which had first attracted her to him all those years ago, but over time she had discovered that even the way his belongings were neatly arranged was a reflection of the order of clear thoughts his calm head held. Where she was much too quick to let … More Chaos Into Order
How wonderful it is when one item can simply spark the ideas for a picture. I am going to thank Grace Sixpence for telling me I really neeeeeded this dress in my virtual life. How right she was. It’s the Mazikeen dress from Nerido and it can be bought at Salem: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Prism%20Events/128/115/23 As luck would … More Hands
It had often been said, and was indeed true… Hende was not the strongest figure to look, but her strength came from her heart. To watch over that which was most important to her gave a sureness to the aim of any blows from the staff which she carried as she protected the forest. … More Warrior
There’s something truly gorgeous about a beautifully-tied ribbon bow, I think. Someone with a few over-sensitive ideas about neatness, like myself, can spend a ridiculous amount of time fussing over keeping the loops of a bow equal, and making it look as pretty as it can. I LOVE the ribbons on these shoes, but … More Attachments

We have had little chance to escape it here the past few days, but I do love the music that it brings when each drop hammers onto an umbrella, or splatters onto the flatness of leaves. There’s such a freshness to the air in contrast to how … More Coffee And Rain

Burdened with a curse to turn all to stone who set eyes upon her, she wanders the land alone, save for the constant disapproving cacophony of her serpentine companions.

The assassin stood at what he felt was a safe distance. He had heard whisper that this might be where she was to be found, but had scarce believed it. She stood alone in the forest clearing, statue-like, eyes closed and head tilted upwards, at the very moment when the sun started to rise, sending … More Reputation
I have had a few conversations recently with a friend who has got himself into a situation which isn’t proving positive or good for his heart and soul. Part of the course of these conversations has involved me trying to bite my tongue and hide my frustration at how little importance he seems to place … More Lift Yourself!
It’s no secret to those who know me, that I often find social media too… noisy… too shouty….and oftentimes too emotionally demanding. I am old. I find it nicer to simply have a simple conversation with someone rather than shouting out to all the world in one fell swoop, leaving my words typed on a … More Pull up a seat!
I recently found a message from WordPress drawing my attention to the fact that I had been blogging with them since 2015. It surprised me, but it shouldn’t have because time seems to fly these days, and what I think was ‘only a year ago’ or so turns out to be many more. Many people … More A life lived in words
