Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Interesting article featuring a poet called Neidhart and his famous story of the Violet Prank (right at the end). Sounds like he would fit in well in Port Naain!

Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments I shudder to think what Mutt will accomplish over the course of his life.


message 1205: by Jim (new)

Jim | 21809 comments I have come to the conclusion that I am not worthy to chronicle the life of Mutt.
Other people have already mapped out in their minds how it will go and anything I did would fall short of their dreams :-)

Mutt, quite literally, is a character too big to be constrained by mere words :-)


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments In fact, you are privileged to have him grace your pages now and then.


message 1207: by Jim (new)

Jim | 21809 comments I've always felt so
Especially as I've never noticed much go missing


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Really? I would have expected him to walk off with a sentence or two, even the odd paragraph. Just on principle.

Jim | 21809 comments nothing too hot nor too heavy?

He tends to steal scenes if you don't watch him carefully


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Yes, I had noticed that :)

Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments I could see Patti as a bounty hunter!

Personally, I would prefer to be a Bounty hunter.

Jim | 21809 comments I found this http://www.bounty.com/


Bounty offer support on getting pregnant, pregnancy and parenthood


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments I'm a bit past needing that kind of Bounty! But would love some more of

Jim | 21809 comments I like them as well :-)


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Mmmm yes. I will be putting in a grocery order today. I might have to put in some coconutty goodness.

Jim | 21809 comments Obviously Tallis is an inspirational writer, in that he has inspired you in this matter :-)

Jim | 21809 comments how would you raise money to fund your research?

Some of this seems strangely familiar... and very witty of course.


message 1227: by Jim (new)

Jim | 21809 comments I've not been using incidents from your past life ;-)

But if I remember correctly, it was you who pointed out this particular picture of the lady on the swing and the story behind it


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Quite likely, but it was the alchemist and the volatile nature of their lifestyle that I was mainly thinking of :)


message 1229: by Jim (new)

Jim | 21809 comments Yes I suspect there are elements of Pratchett in it :-)


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Jim wrote: "Yes I suspect there are elements of Pratchett in it :-)"

Pratchentium?

Pratchentium?"


before Pratchett alchemists were madmen who poisoned themselves with the fumes from attempting to turn lead into gold
After Pratchett alchemists were madmen who blew things up :-)

Jim | 21809 comments an introduction to great art

https://tallissteelyard.wordpress.com...


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments I really like that one! I'm here giggling like a maniac :)


message 1236: by Jim (new)

Jim | 21809 comments Yes, that one does seem to have been something of a hit :-)

I'm not entirely sure why. I suspect it's because it takes a good hearty prod at a class of people nobody really approves of, art critics and the world they dwell in


message 1237: by Jim (new)

Jim | 21809 comments And the end of the tour

https://tallissteelyard.wordpress.com...
