You have the brilliance and knowledge for this one (and since I don't, I won't feel left out). <br /><br />Do a "What Would You Do When..." blog... and tell us what to do when something unusual happens: winning the lottery, surviving nuclear disaster, getting lost in the woods, crashing our vehicle, having a heart attack, filing for divorce, losing the family pet, planning our own funeral, etc. <br /><br />It all sounds depressing, but it doesn't have to be, and you know how to think outside nearly every established social box there is...<br /><br />Oh, and I told the hubby about the tarot reading you gave him on Ask Me Anything... and he said it sounded DEAD ON. I told him that, of course, it did! That's why I ask Tarot Queene EVERYTHING!!!Dr. Cheryl Carvajalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323455180953109460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8198390912401056862.post-83422903843464837792009-11-21T11:47:53.281-06:002009-11-21T11:47:53.281-06:00I am planning on writing some over this week, but ...I am planning on writing some over this week, but I have actually promised myself to take out my tarot and play with it today. I'm even taking it to Thanksgiving with me... see if I have any skill with it while reading for others. I'll be reading the interpretations for a while, but hopefully I can spend December really learning it more. I am not sure whether you or Lee used that deck of yours with me, but its GORGEOUS. <br /><br />I would love to see you start a story or poem in a session, and then invite us to continue. First commenter writes a paragraph or stanza, and so on, with you popping back in to add your own stanzas or paragraphs and keep the whole thing going. Given your readership, the final product could be quite cool--and you could offer it up in its final form (with your editing, of course) once it's complete.Dr. Cheryl Carvajalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323455180953109460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8198390912401056862.post-59893536005181700912009-11-20T21:18:38.411-06:002009-11-20T21:18:38.411-06:00Man i thought i already posted, must have not went...Man i thought i already posted, must have not went through...<br /> <br />congratulations on your good progress on your novel. <br /><br />that is just awesome, especially since my progress has slowed as of late.<br /><br />no cards for me thanks. i prefer to leave my question up to a pro like you.Jeff Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00667419764890599092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8198390912401056862.post-4302454009693379952009-11-20T17:45:08.483-06:002009-11-20T17:45:08.483-06:00And I like everyone else, wish you a very Happy Bi...And I like everyone else, wish you a very Happy Birthday - birthdays are my favorite holiday. I have no ideas for you - certainly nothing a rocket scientist would be interested in. I would certainly like the Tarot Cards. I mainly and mostly use the Tarot of the Cat people but I have found different decks give different readings. I have the Tarot of the Goddess as well and I can never get anything but happy positive readings from it. I wonder what the Celtic Dragon would conjure up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8198390912401056862.post-27440237846283942632009-11-20T11:24:00.961-06:002009-11-20T11:24:00.961-06:00Happy Birthday, Stephanie!

I think you're wonderful (and appreciate the birthday greeting). IFF you really covet them (and are comfortable not getting them until sometime next year), you can compete and I'll get them to you. Somehow. If not, I'll just be grateful we can communicate so easily via the internet.<br /><br />Project Savior, that IS an excellent suggestion and, though you're not competing (my MIL is a pagan minister herself), I appreciate the idea. It's a good one.Stephanie Barrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17772217449161603561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8198390912401056862.post-29550404777756906202009-11-20T07:11:33.648-06:002009-11-20T07:11:33.648-06:00I just want to wish you a happy Birthday and congr...I just want to wish you a happy Birthday and congratulations on the writing spree. I had one myself and wrote the last 15,000 words for mine over 3 (12 hour) days. If I stayed inspired like that I could crank one out every 15 days.<br />I don't need the tarot cards as my mom is pagan so I've got a closet full from growing up.<br />Here's an inspiration for you, Where does Inspiration come from?<br />Like all writers I've sat in front of my keyboard all day only to find 1,000 words typed out at the end, and I needed to throw 900 of them out the next day. Then I have a writing spree like the one I had the past 3 days.<br />It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on Inspiration.Darrell B.
