I quite enjoyed writing this one. Hope this one will make me a winner. Thank you for the review.

 

[Victoria Silverwolf]

Marvin: It is difficult to judge the motives of those who came before us.

 

[Parson]

@Ian Fortytwo .... A Myth Can Kill .... Ian points out that a myth may have more than one foot firmly in reality.

@Marvin .... The Myth Makers .... Marvin has done more to make me believe in ancient astronauts than all of the brain dead mocumentaries I've ever seen.

 

[Karn's Return]

Now, Parson, sometimes those things can have some entertainment value by laughing at how ridiculous they all are. XD

Why is it so difficult to come up with something when you choose the theme

 

[Elckerlyc]

Why is it so difficult to come up with something when you choose the theme

Is it perhaps because you first considered something completely different?

Well I did consider going for Pilgrimage in the style of Chaucer.

The pilgrimage in the style of Chaucer was tongue in cheek, I'd would never have recieved another vote if I'd gone for it

Fortunately, common sense prevailed.

nixie: Every silver lining has a cloud.

 

[Parson]

@nixie .... Someone is Always Watching .... Nixie brings to the black place between life and death that makes us shudder even while we are only vaguely aware of why we are shuddering.

 

[DannMcGrew]

@nixie .... Someone is Always Watching ... Jungian quintessence

 

[Victoria Silverwolf]

LittleStar: It's always lightest before the dusk.

I’m in, and this entry marks my ‘official’ one year anniversary of participating in the writing challenges.
I enjoy it immensely, and while I have no inclination to write fiction outside of these forums, I think the appeal here harkens back to that part of me that loves an assignment. Yes, I was that student who enjoyed composing on a given theme for tests back in high school and CEGEP English. Unfortunately, my science disciplines drew my focus away for many years. I am so grateful to have found this group and rediscover the this creative part of me.

 

[Elckerlyc]

Congrats with your first anniversary! And many happy creative returns.

 

[Parson]

@LittleStar .... Sunset .... Star writes us a moody piece with a wonderful mythic setting.

@elvet .... How Time Measured Up .... Elvet lets us in on a secret: "The rat race is rigged by Shadows."

@scarpelius .... Only the truth will set you free? .... Scar asks the question and then gives a logical but surprising answer.

 

[Victoria Silverwolf]

elvet: Creation inspires the poet in all of us.

scarpelius: You can't tell the good without the bad.

Day 8. The muse is beyond me.

This is not an easy one for me. I had trouble with a similar challenge.

I wrote two stories and both don't come close to what is required.

I stare at the definitions of "Fables" & "Mythology", but nothing comes to mind, for now.

In the same boat

@Starbeast @Peter V sorry I've made it difficult, if it helps I'd take fairy tales as fables
