Spooktacular Arts and Crafts and
Characters
I love creating stories because I love working with characters. With
Halloween right around the corner, I thought I’d share a few of the projects
around my house at this time of year.
Even though I’m not a talented pumpkin carver, I can think of other ways
to decorate colorful and shapely gourds to create fun eye-catching characters.
All it takes is a little paint and a few googly eyes.
Different shapes or stories help inspire me to create certain
characters, like ghosts (top photo).
And my Halloween crafting doesn’t stop there. If I find special shapes,
I “see” other characters just asking to be created. Like when I saw this gourd at the Farmer’s Market, I knew what I had to do. I had to start painting.
And using those googly eyes and a little craft paper.
It didn’t take long to create a Snuffleupagus and a few other characters.
I just love finding ways to make interesting characters come to life,
just like in the stories I write.
Morgaine
Le Fay and the Viking
Everyone has heard of
King Arthur and his magical sword, Excalibur, but there’s another legendary
hero who received a magical sword from the Norse Goddess known as The Lady of
the Lake. Meet Holger Danske and his sword “Cortana”.
The Vikings, led by
Holger Danske, invaded England. Yet somehow, even as enemies, Holger and King
Arthur’s half-sister, Morgaine Le Fay, shared a forbidden love.
Morgaine
Le Fay and the Viking is the
secret Denmark never shares...until now.
Travel across oceans, continents
and countries to discover the story of legendary Viking hero, Holger Danske,
and his magical romance with King Arthur’s half-sister in Morgaine Le Fay.
This
is the story of two warriors who never thought they’d find love, especially on
the battlefield, yet standing poised against each other Morgaine and Holger
face an attraction more powerful than any sword, stronger than any warrior and
more magical than all the powers of Merlin.
