Hores should not be tamed.  Hores should be kept wild and free.  If a hore gets caught she will kick you in the face.




Aaah, this time in two weeks, I’ll be back home!

This is just a useful tip that I learned from taking my creative writing course in school.  My professor, during a free writing session, told us to create a word chain and keep it going until the time allotted was over.  What I mean by a word chain is starting with a word and creating another word using the last letter of the first word as the first letter of the second word.  We repeated it until the time was over.  It’s, actually, really helpful to get the creative juices flowing, especially for poets.  When you find the right words, the ideas keep flowing.

Here’s a word chain I came up with today to help me write something new:

Lonely —> Yearning —> Gone —> Eager —> Reach —> Hold —> Desire —> …

Hopefully you guys find this to be a helpful tip.  If I find any more tips that my professor taught me in class, I’ll definitely post those, too!  Thanks for reading! :)

This seems like a really cool idea! If you guys want to send in some word chains to share with everyone else, that would be awesome too!

I’d suggest maybe… 30 minute or 20 minute time limit to start?

After the castle, we went horseback riding, which was fun (I didn’t die!) although I’m sore now.  Helen, who was our guide, told us that the horses were being a little testy because they weren’t used to the heat we’ve been having for the past week.  She said it doesn’t generally get as hot as it’s been (in the 80s!) even in the summertime.

We didn’t really do anything else after leaving the park; we just got dinner and walked a little bit in Mumbles, but on our way back to Swansea, we stopped in a random field and took pictures.  The road we were taking was very winding, but it really was a nice drive.



More of the castle.  You could see for miles around, even through the mist.  I suppose that’s the whole point of building a castle there, all nestled in the hills, huh?

We went to Brecon Beacons National Park the other day.  This is the Carreg Cennen Castle in the western part of the park, in Carmarthenshire, Wales.  That morning was very cloudy and misty, although it cleared up by the afternoon.

I thought it was very beautiful, though.
