The Name of the Place...

…Rivendell 5!
Ever since I watched The Hobbit, I’ve had a case of LordoftheRingsitis.

Symptoms of LordoftheRingsitis include daydreaming about elves, dwarves, and/or hobbits, bringing up Middle Earth in as many conversations as possible, the constant doodling, drabbling, and babbling of things related to Lord of the Rings, and making LotR themed blog posts.

Causes: reading the books, watching the movies, and/or catching a glimpse of anything involving LotR.

Cure: at this time, there is none. If you contract LordoftheRingsitis, the best way to cope is to get a piece of it out of your system (see below sample).

Rivendell 5
A crossover of Babylon 5 and Lord of the Rings
Babylon 5 was created by J. Michael Straczynski
Lord of the Rings was created by J. R. R. Tolkien
I’ve been meaning to update my blog’s banner and background, so I figured today would be a good day to go ahead and do that! It coincides with the Sci-Fi theme of Rivendell 5. The untitled novel I’m working on is also Sci-Fi, so why not throw a huge Sci-Fi blog fest? I’m still in the process of revising it. I took Monday of last week off just to squeeze some time in. Revising and editing on the back of a full time job is not easy!

The Burpleberry Newsstand

Mr. Burple Berry is off dreaming somewhere. Last week’s #FictionFriday followed the the theme,
“Purple unicorns, sparkling kittens, and ninja eagles…The alarm didn’t go off!  She was late for class and missed a pop quiz. Study time.”
The wingless ding is thinking about doing next week’s #FictionFriday on the fly!

Return to Tomorrow: July

I am losing the War Against Busyism ; it is such an unfortunate truth, but that doesn’t mean I was idle while waiting in the trenches. I was able to scribble out a few things for the month of July. A patriotic prelude to my new avatar Pencil drawings are such fun! I have plans to make a digital version of this ink sketch. I’m a Fighter Pilot – The image I created my avatar out of. It’s too wide to post on here, so here’s the link! 7/3 books read. Thank FSM for lunch breaks.

High Castle is Coming to SDCC Again!

News on the High Castle Front!  High Castle is going to be at San Diego Comic Con again! Going off of last year’s SDCC appearance, we can expect some hints about Season 4, a release date, and a trailer! I have no idea what to predict about S4, so I’m going to hold all of my theories and speculations until after the panel. I CAN’T WAIT! Yet, it is also a bittersweet feeling knowing that this is the final season of the show that has been a huge part of my life since 2015. Never before has a TV show captured my imagination like Amazon’s The Man in the High Castle.   Here are the details as posted by the official @HighCastleTV Twitter account: When: Sat, July 20th at 4:15 PM I am assuming this is PST, so it will be 7:15PM for us East Coasters. Where: Room 6A I truly wish I could be there! Costume designer Cate Adair posted some details on Instagram, and I WISH I COULD TELEPORT THERE. Okay. Deep breath 😉 There will be a costume designers guild booth (#734) in the main conv...

SGS: Creativity!

Looking at Heather’s wonderful prompts, I just realized that April is almost over. Is it really the last Sunday of the month already!? How did that happen? Even with quarantine it feels like it just zipped by!  This week’s Seriously Geeky Sundays theme hits close to home, and I am super excited about it. As you all know, I’m an artist who loves to draw, paint, write, and sew!  26th April – Creativity What does creativity in fandoms/geeky interests mean to you? EVERYTHING. Just look at Club High Castle!  High Castle is the one fandom where I’ve felt like I’ve been allowed to flourish. The countless hours and dedication I’ve put into the things I’ve created has been appreciated by both fans and the cast and crew. I have never experienced anything like it, and it has genuinely made me happy over the years.  I’ve been in other fandoms where art and things just slipped by unnoticed–not that I’m seeking attention, but knowing that there are people out there who enjoy my...
