Movies, coloring books, personal update
@Rivethead Rasta – one of my favorite Twitter pals – shared this link to the 20 Scifi Movies We’re Most Excited to see in 2010. I don’t know about you, but I think I’m just going to print it out and check them off as I get them
I was even more excited, however, to see that they are making John Carter, Warlord of Mars into a movie. I am a serious Edgar Rice Burroughs fan, and although he is best known for Tarzan – my personal favorite of his series was John Carter of Mars. I am also a huge Pixar fan, and it does seem just too perfect as the medium for four armed ten foot tall Martians to be brought to life.
Meanwhile, I’ve gotten the ,a href=”http://color-your-own.com”>coloring books organized and sent off to the magic software man who also happens to run eBook Connections, an ebook store. I am eagerly anticipating their return and also trying to figure out how I’m going to be selling them.
Here at home we’ve had some rather distressing news about my hubby’s health. We are still pending more information before any big decisions or changes can be made but it seems likely that there will be some changes. We are trying to look at it all in a positive light and it just might turn out that way. Who knows? We don’t yet – not until next week.
I’m off to do some dishes and then settle in to the tedious job of updating the coloring pages site one page at a time. HoHum.
O – I added a new original short fairy tale at Demented-pixie.com as well as another of the Victorian age short stories over at Foovay’s Floozies. As life settles into a more humdrum routine again after the holidays, I’m sure I’ll start getting more of the fiction blogs going properly.
I also created a new Squidoo lens that I hope will save bloggers, crafters, artists, webdesigners and other folks like me a lot of wasted time Public Domain Clipart has all my personal favorite sources for public domain clipart that you can use.
That pretty well catches us up!
Blogging Blast
I set out yesterday to finally really set up and get all the blogs I’ve had plans for – the main ones being added are for adult short fiction and serials. If you look down towards the bottom on the right hand column now you’ll see two new categories of links, Blogs by Foovay and Adult Blogs by Foovay. I’m also making sure that all the blogs have TweetMyBlog on them – I love that plug-in.
The main one I wanted to brag on today is Foovay’s Floozies. Think Victorian era naughty girls. Original stories, vintage “porn” photos (some of them quite soft core), and some photo manips. It was quite popular early this year, then I had all those hosting issues and this and that and well… hey, it’s back now!
Last night and this evening I got some beautiful photos of the storm rolling in – and then snow on the Sierra’s behind us. My Flickr pro account is a bit past due so I can’t upload and make a pretty slide show. Sorry. So here’s my two favorites.
Remember me telling you about the colored charcoal and grey paper I got for Solstice? Well I’m going to get one more blog set up and maybe a few entries in the others and then I’m sitting down with my new toys and these two photos. Maybe tomorrow I’ll have some art to show you!
