Review: The experience of Writing and Creating.

(I really enjoyed this image posted by Professor Gibbs from Grant Snider, and I thought it really was true.)

So many times as a writer we dont think about the complexity of the language we write in. Over the course of the semester I have truly enjoyed getting to learn French in my Beginning French continued class. We hardly ever think about the languages that are invented within fiction. Take J.R.R. Tolken's Elvish language in the Lord of the Rings trilogy for example. Tolken had to have given some serious thought to come up with a completely different language and I had to wonder if he wrote some of that language in a writers journal at some point in his career. 

I enjoyed getting to watch the video about languages in fiction that I will link at the bottom for your entertainment. I really appreciate getting to write in this class.

I currently have a personal website that caters to my work as an author which I will link below...

Week 3 Story: The Creation of Adam in Eden

Image
(Story is now at my portfolio ) (Picture of Wiccan Altar ) Before time on earth began the goddess and the god were there. Now the god and the goddess were intertwined within the same cycle, and in turn, the world was made by the combined power of the god and goddess. The god ruled the forests of the world while the goddess ruled the fields and the moon. There was no other creature in sight, and the deities felt lonely. The goddess spoke to the god to whom she had given birth who had grown into adulthood and said to him “Why should we not create magical creatures of our own to be able to be one with nature and to be able to harness the power of our spirits to take care of the Earth in which I am?” Thereby the god replied to the goddess who gave birth to him “I do not see why we cannot do what you might suggest. Perhaps it would be nice to be able to leave the earth with this caretaker while we continue our reign from the heavens.” The goddess replied in earnest “Oh how I long to ...
