In my Local Paper!

I was in my local paper! It's kinda exciting and I'm still all giddy inside. 

Both Eye on Orion, and Guardians of the Gates are mentioned. Click on the names to find the Amazon links. 

HERE IT IS! 

I feel so blessed. 

I won't tell you how I looked and was dressed 10 minutes before this picture was taken. Let's just say I needed some hair, makeup, and wardrobe adjustments.

Tell me, how fast can you get picture ready? ;)

WonHundred Word Wednesday

Today's prompt is something I experienced once. 

Spare some change please? The old woman on the street corner asked, her cardboard sign stained with grease and other unidentifiable substances.

I opened my purse and dug through the pocket I held my coins in. A small pebble my daughter gave me, a few smashed penny souvenirs, and an army can opener were found among the few dimes, nickels and pennies. I didn’t even have a quarter. Everything was plastic.

“Sorry, it’s all I have on me.”

“Wow lady. You don’t got much.”

Her words saddened me. I had so much, yet couldn’t give to one in need today.

Time to visit the other blogs involved.

Wonhundred Word Wednesday

This week's prompt:

There was a strange wailing sound coming from the next room. 

A strange wailing sound caught my ears. I put my tools down and listened closely, trying to figure out what it could be. My apprentice had gone home hours ago, and no one in their right mind would be visiting someone like me this late at night. I doubted it was a cat. They had learned to stay away as well. 

I blew out the candle and gripped the long handled needel used to punch holes in the leather I’d been working on.

Easing myself up quietly, I moved to the door. A familiar scent reached me.

I’d been found.

Time to check out the other blogs and see what they came up with.
