I've been naughty and used a recycled post, the lovely books in the picture reminded me of all the words I have to write to produce my own book. Thanks for the great prompt.
The last few Magpies I was really unable to read or comment on very many of them. This week I will read them all. By hook or by crook, I will read them all.
I love Magpie Tales ... partly as I am distantly related to the Magpie (I am a Raven) but also it is nice to be linked here. This is a wonderful connection. Thank you so much.
Woohoo!! This one's real special for me, Tess! Cuz it inspired me to write my first story ever!!! Thanks, my dear, for yet another awesome picture prompt!!!!
I have been playing with this in my mind all week and what is eventually here is not what I started out with at all. I know I haven't done the Mag justice but it's up anyway! Now I will use the little time I have left before Monday to do some visiting. It's been a hectic week.
These books certainly spoke to me today! :)
ReplyDeleteNice photo, a dark inspiration.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful trip through the aisles of memory this prompt began.
ReplyDeleteGosh, you guys are fast!
ReplyDeleteI surprised myself actually. I think I've never been in the top 10 at Magpie, but the picture spoke to me quite nicely :) Thanks Tess.
ReplyDeleteTess Thanks so much for this prompt. I have been able to speak of my passion, to talk about artists books.
ReplyDeleteThanks for another wonderful prompt, Tess = )
ReplyDeleteSave the books! Say NO to eReaders! eReaders will enslave us all!
