Una the Mystic

I've been playing around with my secondary character, Una.

She's been tapping on my brain to come out and I can not draw to save my life.  I did try, it wasn't pretty.  So I bought some modeling clay and got to work.  I may do another try, to see if I can get her arms and legs to come out better.  The arms are covered by her robes and her feet... yeah they suck.  At least you can't see how bad the legs came out.  

Anyway, here she is.  


The face came out better than what I expected, but with some practice I may be able to get out more detail, like her scales and the fact that her ridges on the top of her head have a plume of feathers coming out.  Not to mention she needs to be Purple and the robe red.  Over all I'm happy with her.  


  Here's a little nerd info for you.  I pictured in my mind what a dragon looked like if crossed with a cloner (Kamino) from Star Wars.  Yup, something like that.

      I'm working on bringing out more of her personality this weekend, I'm hoping every one will love her. Or, at least understand where she's coming from.

Retreating from the Writer's Retreat

Image
As I have learned, When Words Count Writer's Retreat has a sweepstakes at the end of every year to generate free visits for writers from the beginning of January all the way to the end of May. I was one of those people who won. Coming to the retreat, I was blessed with stunning views of mountain ranges and winding back roads, a covered bridge and farms. All of this pleasant to look at. Arriving was just as beautiful. From the mountains in the distance to the little pond just beyond the house it gave a promise of peace and possible productivity in writing. My room is the top left corner. Hi room, I'm home for the next few days. I admit, when I had first won, I thought it was a scam, and in doing research I have not been the only one to think so. It's not a normal thing to hear about some random retreat in Vermont and also to win a 3 night stay at a country type house in the shadow of the Green Mountains in said retreat. It is real, however, I can attest to it.

The Bar

Image
Pepe Don had owned a bar when he was young. Mike and his sister decided, now that they were adults, they would finally open the door and see what was left of it. He unlocked the door and the dust hit him. Coughing, he walked in. Becky kept her arm over her mouth as she followed. "Look at all those bottles!" Mike ran his hand on the wood of the counter, picking up a layer of dust. Each bottle had a label and a tag on it. "It is a bar after all." Becky shrugged and headed over to the piano. She plunked her finger on a few keys, the sound was pitch perfect. "This still works." Mike looked at the tags on the mostly full bottles. His jaw dropped. "I don't think this was a bar, Bek." "Look at this place, of course it was a bar." She played a few more notes, the music ringing out in wonderous tones. With each tune, the dust seemed to shake off the bottles. "This isn't a bar. It's an apothecary," Mike insisted. Looking fro

Lucky 7 MEME

Image
So I was tagged in another Meme, by Dean C Rich and Cherie, which is great cause they're fun. :) And this one is called Lucky 7s. My lucky number. Sounds good so here it goes. Lucky 7!   This one is quite easy, so without any delay, here are the rules: 1. Go to page 77 of your current ms. 2. Go to line 7. 3. Copy down the next 7 lines/sentences, and post them as they're written. No cheating. 4. Tag 7 other victims, er, authors. I'm going to ask your forgiveness in advance for my pg 77. Though I haven't looked at it, in a while, I'm doing a complete rewrite on my Work In Progress so this may be a bit rough.   From Second Nature Her curvy body was dressed in greens and browns of vines to cover her.  The lady’s feet looked like the roots of trees imbedded in the ground.  Nemune gasped in awe. From one side of Nature came Una and Endoria, from the other came Agasga and Rytharvin. Nemune watched as Dawveed got up from where he lay.
