Sunday Roll Of the Dice. Rory's Story Cubes Classic.



 




Once upon a time, the world was on fire. Someone wearing a mask pretending to be someone they were not set the world on fire. Almost everything that was cherished was burnt. Smoke rose to the sky, but the masked person let it burn. 

But what that masked person didn't know was that everyone was watching them. Many, MANY eyes on the masked person started talking. Conversation spread over the burning world. They had to take a gamble like rolling the dice. What each side represented, they didnt know. It was rolled to a ONE. Only one had the key to the knowledge they all sought. When the knowledge opened, the door would be unlocked.

Staycation During November

During November, I took a few days off as staycation days so I could relax at home and work on my WIP (work in progress). Book three is almost done. 

To inspire me to sit down at my home desk I decided tidy it up. Move aside anything bulky or unnecessary. Then I went around the house and gathered what I once used but have not in a while. In the first picture, this is what it looked like after. 

When Nanowrimo was something I did. They had mugs with the November theme. This is the first mug I bought myself three years ago or more. Since it's a dark blue, this is my evening writing mug. 

Do you have a favourite mug to sip out of while writing?

This little book, the Writers' Companion, which I ordered so many years ago, I almost forgot about. As I took it off my bookshelf, I gave it a gentle wash. Opened it, reading over old ideas I had in the past, ones that left me wondering if I still had those WIP somewhere in a file folder.

Do you have old writing books you bought but sadly forgot about?

In the evenings, I will light this orange candle; usually, I have a smaller blue candle sitting on this brown box. Inside this box are all my small blue candles, for when I write, I light. But I am out, so I found this orange candle that will work just as well. Also, my lovely crystal writing companions. 

Orange candle- for creativity

Orange calcite- confidence and positivity

Blue Calcite- calm, communication

Citrine- sucess and joy

Carneline- emotional balance

Rutilated Quartz- amplifying energy


This is my new writing planner! This lovely book I bought when we were in Canmore, Alberta. The idea is to write down what I am writing. The word count and what I am looking to reach. I have used it a lot and really love the layout. 

Trees have always been my favourite, no matter what it's on. So the fact that it looks magical with a tree is a bonus!


Do you have a writing planner you are using? Where did you get it? Do you like using it, or would you prefer it laid out differently?
