Photography Challenge: Variations on a Theme

This week, show the same thing — an object, place, or person — presented in several different ways. Earlier this month I was fortunate enough to escape my normal, daily routine, and take a road trip to Orlando, Florida.  The place, Bonnet Creek, was absolutely breathtaking!  Right outside my door was this lake filled with…

The Cabin in the Woods

Today’s two word-prompt combination: [WordPress:  Candid]  +  [Writer’s Block:  Virus]  = The Cabin in the Woods *** The cabin appeared innocent enough, but to be candid, it too was infested by the same demonic virus that ran rampant in the woods. What’s the old idiom..  “…looks can be deceiving…” ?   Yes, that was the one….

Photography Challenge: Silence

This week’s photo challenge is simply…Silence. I took the photograph above on one of my silent get-a-ways. Forever an introvert, I am drawn to silence. These are just a few of my favorite sounds of silence… Quiet mornings with coffee in hand… In my hammock, all is silent, save the cicada and birds overhead… Lying…

This is the equation of today’s combination:   [WP = Brilliant] + [WB = Write a story about…

The “Airport Test”

                     Thanks for stopping by Redhead Reflections! I hope this day has treated you well thus far, and I send out good energies to all who read this! Today’s word from WordPress is Forlorn, and the prompt from my book, Writer’s Block is…Opening Lines. So, I…

Haiku: America Bleeds

[WP’s daily prompt = Allergic] +  [Writer’s Block Prompt = Diet] =  Haiku: America Bleeds ***                               A diet of hate,                           And no allergen to greed America bleeds……

Viable Danger

Today’s word prompt is viable. So, I took the liberty of looking it up in several dictionaries, and this is what I found: Alive, capable of living, developing, or reproducing. Capable of working, functioning or developing adequately. Able to exist, perform as intended, or succeed. After digging a little more I was able to discover…
