QUOTE OF THE NOW

"Our life evokes our character. You find out more about yourself as you go on. That's why it's good to be able to put yourself in situations that will evoke your higher nature rather than your lower. 'Lead us not into temptation.'" Joseph Campbell

Random postings

Just cleaning up my blogging folder if you don't mind. They're all pics--you can click them to see them at full size.

A cartoon posted by Friendpaul on facebook.

A friend who's newly working a desk job was asking about how to stop neck and shoulder pain. I don't think about it much anymore because of being a writer since childhood. I was firmly planted at a typewriter/computer from teen years onward, and experienced my first really sharp, awful neck pains around grade 9.  

I found exercises like these in a magazine or something and they really worked. Took awhile, but the pain went away over time. I still use them. #14 also helps against carpal tunnel (I have another set of exercises for that.) 

And I do some of these too for my back, shoulders and wrists. ...Thought I'd share since many of my online-ee friends are writers. :-) If I find my book, I'll try to scan the carpal tunnel ones one day. I'm always misplacing it.

 And then, totally at random again... some illustrations from a graphic novel series. I read book 2 then realized book 3 isn't out yet! And not anytime soon!

But no wonder, look at the detail in these! (It's about an English teaching assistant in a Japanese village.)



My library also doesn't have the rest of the Aya series. And I'm about to read book 1 of a series, that they don't have book 2 for. Hm. Hm!
