Smithy of the Written Word: Glamour, March 2008

http://smithyofthewrittenword.blogspot.com/2008/06/r-glamour-march-2008.html

Smithy of the Written Word. Glamour, March 2008. However, the March 2008 issue of Glamour. Differentiated itself a little, in a good way. Several pages in it caught my eye, over the shoulder of the girl (JMU alum, class of 03) sitting next to me on the plane ride back from Portugal in mid-March. By that time stores were selling the April issue already, and it’s taken me until now to track down a copy, courtesy of my local library. And ‘Sexy Hair in 10 Minutes or Less’ (‘Believe it! I couldn’t agree...

Smithy of the Written Word: Truth About Beauty

http://smithyofthewrittenword.blogspot.com/2007/05/nf-truth-about-beauty.html

Smithy of the Written Word. That being said, this essay is about women’s bodies. Efforts to change cultural perceptions of beauty from its current artificially rigid standard are starting to be made, such as the Dove Campaign for Real Beauty. Or even music videos like this one. By Evanescence. Meanwhile, Killing Us Softly. Indicates that we have quite a ways to go. The second truth that needs saying is that physical beauty is different from physical health. Right? Having said that, I don’t want any...

Smithy of the Written Word: Thoughts on Creativity

http://smithyofthewrittenword.blogspot.com/2014/11/thoughts-on-creativity.html

Smithy of the Written Word. Two pieces I feel are worth passing along. First, the inestimable John Cleese:. Second, this from screenwriter Shonda Rhimes. Follow link for full size):. Tuesday, November 04, 2014. Labels: Digital Self-Publishing (DSP). November 5, 2014 at 5:33 AM. My favourite part of the John Cleese clip- a fellow whose work I love- is the flash to the audience where two guys are laptop crawling while this superstar is talking. Well done.

Thursday, October 24, 2013. Special Guest Blogger, J. Aleksandr Wootton. In Defense of Escape. By J Aleksandr Wootton. There are still people who criticize the fantasy genre for being “escapist.” They are not wrong; they are missing the point. Readers, fans, lovers of fantasy do not return to the same shelves at the library only because we want a temporary respite from our own lives, although fantasy does offer such respites. In the foreword to her collection Tales from Earthsea. Ursula K. Le Guin ha...

Smithy of the Written Word: Origin

http://smithyofthewrittenword.blogspot.com/2014/12/origin.html

Smithy of the Written Word. All the deepest magics are bred upon the hearth. Warm brick and whistling kettles,. Story-tongued salamanders leaping to climb chimney walls. Only to fall back down as crumbling soot,. Almost before they have driven us. Out of Dark and into Dream. Guiding here and there by rough words, few, unsteady, and dim. Tomorrow, behind porridge gently steaming in the pale dawn,. A bitterer curse may brew;. And all day the evening meal will muse upon the spit. Saturday, December 06, 2014.
