One of these days I'm not going to talk about how tired I am or how much my head has been hurting. But that would not be today (so just pretend I made the obligatory remarks about my head and my exhaustion). I didn't do too much today, except for playing around with some ink and paper and walking the dogs.
I found this script workshop via Elise Blaha Cripe's blog that I follow (not so religiously). When I first discovered it I wanted to know more so I tracked down the post she wrote when she was actually taking the class. Here are some examples of her quotes, her own experiments before she took the class, and an almost practical way she has used what she learned in this project. While I'm still on the fence of whether or not to take this workshop, I decided I would try out a little bit of wordplay (and inkplay) before I made my final decision. (Honestly, I'm still leaning towards taking the workshop, but in the end my mind isn't fully made up until I sign up for the class.) Here's a sample of what I made. I thought they were the correct lyrics from the song that is the title of the post (The Zombie's "This Will Be Our Year"), but as the name suggests instead of being "shall" it should be "will." Oh well, I like the implications "shall" has. (My mother was not impressed.)
I had some very happy puppies after this afternoon's walk.
