Some thoughts on writing from the 60-second story project. This is an old post but I just ran across it and as I am about to start serious work on book two of the Fairy Godmother Diaries, it seemed like the perfect time to post this one. — 11/20/10: “Yesterday’s mythology is today’s science, and…
Today’s cards: Nine of Rods, Eight of Cups, Two of Swords. Even though I am about to go hike a few miles with the dog, really today is about what I need to do on the inside. It’s time to Go Within. Oh and it’s not just about your internal monologue and kicking its butt…
Today’s cards: Eight of Pentacles, Nine of Pentacles, Five of Rods. Yeow. If this isn’t a call to (metaphoric) arms, I don’t know what is. Seriously, today is the day to stand up for yourself, accept that you know what you know, are good at what you do, and then make sure everyone else knows…
What fascinating cards today! We have Six of Cups, the Page of Pentacles, and the Sun! Today, let’s think about children, or ourselves as children. What did you like to do for fun when you were a kid? Do you still do it? Or, has it fallen off by the side of the road? If…
You who are on the road, must have a code that you can live by. CSN had it goin’ on with those lyrics. And not only that, but that whole learn from your mistakes thing is a great idea for today. The cards are: Page of Swords, Hierophant, and Six of Cups. So, today is…
Today’s Cards: Ten of Pentacles, Six of Pentacles, Eight of Rods. Spend time with loved ones today. And if you find yourself on your own, reach out to new people. Extend yourself. I know, I know. It’s easy to say and much harder to do. But hey, if life isn’t about taking chances from one…
Today’s cards are: Nine of Swords, Two of Rods, and the Sun! Yep, I put an exclamation point at the end of the Sun(!) because it’s just that kind of card and something needs to be done about that Nine of Swords. That Nine of Swords squats inside your head and heart like a miasma….
Today’s cards: King of Cups, King of Swords, Four of Cups. Ah, the mystery! Today’s big question is, what aren’t you seeing that’s right in front of your face? To me, the Four of Cups is about not seeing/sensing the obvious. It’s right there plain as day but for some reason, it remains elusive. So,…
Today’s cards: Ace of Cups, Ace of Swords, Six of Swords. The reality of the situation is that you might be sad. It’s not necessarily an “everything is tragic,” gigantic sad, but it is that “things don’t feel right, bright, and good today,” type of sad. It’s a kind of low-grade sad that saps you…
Ten of Pentacles, Page of Cups, the Hermit. Seriously? These cards? Together?? Normally, when I draw cards, I see some sort of story. This morning? Heh, it will take some doing. The best thing I can tell you is that your intuition is trying to tell you something. Stop ignoring it. Whatever is going on…
