#WritingPrompt: Magical Ties & Folktales


For some reason when you're in severe danger – almost dead – your character's magical tie takes you to a folk tale. Inside these fairy tale's you run through the story as the tie heals you until you're well enough to get back to the real place. You've completed Red Riding Hood's story for the third time now and yet... you haven't went back home.

Why are you not going back home?

How does the tie work?


What does your character does when they realize they're stuck?

















I've created the prompt. If you take prompt please give credit (use website addy!). The use of this theme in a story is a-okay. 

If you like these prompts & would like to help out --Donate here. Money goes toward my surgical costs.

#Goodreads 8 Books Read in 2015 Reading Challenge


I read far less than what I did in 2014 . My goal for 2015 was five books but ended up reading eight. Shocking, I know. This was my first full year in teaching college there wasn't any time.

Most of the books in this year were kid literature for my history class. Links go to the reviews I've written about them.















Someone Named Eva by Joan M. Wolf


Abe Lincoln Crosses a Creek: A Tall, Thin Tale by Deborah Hopkinson


The Wishing Thread by Lisa Van Allen
