Find Yourself

Another great writer gone, you'll be missed Brian Jacques. When I was younger, I had stacks of Redwall books, I tried to buy them as soon as they came out and read them hungrily. I loved the world and all the details, food and places, it felt so real. I remember wanting to know how each hero would make their journey and I learned that many things would be the same but I loved the variations. In one of the early books, the hero has to fight a huge snake in a cave and it terrified me. When I finally read Harry Potter in college, that image came back to me. He prepared me for Tolkien and a love of delving into other worlds.

Today has been a strange day, even though I went to bed early and slept late, I don't feel like I've quite woken up. There's a small assignment I need to do for my class tomorrow and stuff for a meeting but at the moment I feel low on ideas. I've been filling some prompts because that's helpful and all my RP is slowed. This is just a strange mood, I want to do things but nothing too much. Perhaps its time for dinner and tea or hot cider.
