2016 A-Z Blogging Challenge Theme Reveal

Image
Oooo...the day is getting closer; creeping stealthily, it will smack you in the face in no time! While we impatiently await the start of the challenge, it's time to reveal our themes.  Yay!  I'm going for something drastically different this year.  Something much more challenging than I've ever done in my previous four years participating in this particular challenge.  Normally my posts are pretty straight-forward, contained, not overly ambitious.  This year is going to be another beast all together. My mission, should I choose to accept it, will be to write one continuous story for the entire challenge.  I know my characters, setting, and where I want it to go...kind of.  All I need to figure out is how to get from point A to point Z.  The first word of each post will start with the letter for the day; some of these will definitely be more difficult than others, but I'm determined. I look forward to writing this, receiving feedb...

B is for...Black Hole Sun and Boy Who Blocked

Image
Day two has arrived in the A-Z Blogging Challenge and we're moving on to the letter B.  Today I bring you... "Black Hole Sun" - Soundgarden This is when I fell in love with Chris Cornell.  That love has only continued to get stronger as the years have passed...through Soundgarden, Audioslave, Temple of the Dog, and his solo work.  That gravely voice...mmmm.  I don't care that he's old enough to be my dad.  It was the 90s, it was grunge, and it was awesome.  The lyrics are sad and melancholy, but the music is beautiful.  Such a great juxtaposition! *Fun Fact :  "Black Hole Sun" won the 1995 Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance. "The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot" - Brand New   My all-time favorite band, Brand New, came out with "The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot" on their sophomore album, Deja Entendu .  The album is lyrically and musically brilliant, but this song speaks to me despite the ...

L is for Lewis Carroll's "Jabberwocky"

"L"obbing stones to decimate two birds today: Poetry Fridays and the letter L. Jabberwocky (1855) 'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves    Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves,    And the mome raths outgrabe. "Beware the Jabberwock, my son    The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun    The frumious Bandersnatch!" He took his vorpal sword in hand;    Long time the manxome foe he sought— So rested he by the Tumtum tree,    And stood awhile in thought. And, as in uffish thought he stood,    The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,    And burbled as it came! One, two! One, two! And through and through    The vorpal blade went snicker-snack! He left it dead, and with its head    He went galumphing back. "And hast thou slain the Jabberwock...
