all good things must end




The Lonely Moon contest has drawn to a close. We had 100 entries!! And what entries! You could choose any entry and find a solid read. Over twenty of them hit fantastic on my meter. Winners will be posted today at the Clarity of Night .

What's on the stereo?





Nick Drake's Pink Moon. What else?














You Are A Rowan Tree

You are full of charm and cheer. You light up a room.
And while you crave attention, you do it without ego.
You are an interesting mix of contradictions - and very unpredictable.
You are both dependent and independent, calm and restless.
You are passionate, emotional, gregarious, and (at times) unforgiving.

I really wanted to write something for the contest, but once I get started, I don't stop. Being able to write flash is an amazing skill to me, one I hope to cultivate someday. In any case, I'll enjoy reading the entries!

Am waiting for the results. Maybe I should go to the website and wait. :)

I'm a cypress (great sexual needs but can't be satisfied). Yeah, gotta watch those cypress gals.

Jaye and Anne, our birthdays must be really close. I'm a Rowan Tree, too!

I'm like Bill, can't seem to keep it short. But I'm inspired by those who can - can't wait to read the stories!

Elizabeth, I'm an April bday. Aries girl all the way. I've never heard of Celtic horoscopes before. I wonder how they divide the year into signs--or trees, I guess.

anne frasier said...
