April Writer’s Challange

One month, One Story, yep, you knew it was coming, it’s time for the: April Writer’s Challange:

Easter is just around the corner. For this month’s challange I thought we  would write an “Eastery” story. Doesn’t have to be Easter exactly. I was inspired by Dove Chocolate’s “Fairy Bunny”, which I saw in the store today. They are so cute. On the box is a poem that tells about an enchanted valley where bunnies with butterfly wings live. It’s a cute little image tale, and it got me to thinking: What a great fantasy story that’d make!

So, this month’s challange is to write a fantasy about an enchanted valley filled with magical faeries and the like. You can spin it off as any genre you like. One idea I thought of was based on my siggie gif: The Vampire Easter Minions. Kind of a fairy tale got mad thing.

Ain’t they cute?

 

What can you guys think of? 

The challange is up, so get going and write!

EelKat as an M&M

Well, this is interesting… Did you ever wonder what you would look like if you were an M&M? I just found this site and here is what I would look like if I was an M&M:

If you could be a character in any movie….

If you could be a character in any movie….who would you be and which movie would you choose? Why?
I’d want to be Willy Wonka (Johnny Depp version)… I already wear the coat and hat, and was a taste tester for the real Wonka company back in the late 1970′s (I was eating Nerds looong before they were released to the public! and I’m eating them right now too! ) I love his “house”, his boat, and I’d much rather travel by Glass Wonkervator than by car…

Any female in the Harry potter series that would place me in a position to seduce Professor Snape. Ain’t he villainously cute?

and I’ll also add to that, any gal they Jack Sparrow would want too.

…also Christine Dae in Phantom of the Opera, and I’d pick Eric, not the other guy

…or the bride of Jarath in Labyrinth (I know, I’m rewriting all the movies here! LOL! )

…oh yeah… and I’d be The Bride in Kill Bill, only I wouldn’t have left Bill to marry the guy at the music store, so Bill never would have gone on his rampage, and Bill and The Bride and B.B. would have lived happily ever after

About Me

Hello starshine and welcome to my newest blog. If you are one of my faithful followers and devoted fans, I send you lots of {{{{{{{{{{{{{huggles}}}}}}}}}}}}. If we have never crossed paths before, than I bid you welcome and shake you warmly by the hand. For those who know me, I am of course EelKat and for those of you who do not know me, well, I’m still EelKat, but I suppose that doesn’t mean anything to you, so I’ll introduce myself so I can add you to my ever growing list of faithful and devoted followers .

I am Wendy C. Allen, writer of sci-fi, romance, and horror, most noted as the creator of The Twighlight Manor series, a multi-volume epic gothic sci-fi-romance set in the haunted house, known as The Twighlight Manor.

On the internet, I am know as EelKat, my alter-ego, the talking black bobcat from Planet Diona (a character from both The Twighlight Manor series & The Planet Ptarmargin series, as well as The Chrystonite Chronicles).

In alphabetical order: I like Alan Rickman, Alice Cooper, birds, candy, Carl Barks, cats, C*C*DeVille, Colombo, comic books, Darkwing Duck, David Bowie, Disney, dogs, Don Rosa, Donald Duck, dvds, eels, Etiole, fashion, gothic, haunted houses, horror, Jack Sparrow, Johnny Depp, Kieth Laumer, movies, NegaDuck, pigeons, Prof. Snape, Retief, roosters, sci-fi, Scrooge McDuck, Sir Roderic, Twighlight Manor, Uncle Scrooge, video games, Vincent Price, Willy Wonka, writing, Zorro.

I am the creator and Administrator of A Writer’s Desk, the forum for writers.

I am an active eBayer and regular poster on the Padded Cell.

I am one of the Disney Duck historian/editors of I.N.D.U.C.K.S. the online encyclopidia of the Disney Duck Family History. I also own one of the world’s largest and most complete Disney Duck comic book collections.

I am a huge fan of Don Rosa and his book The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck.

Of course that means I’m also a huge fan of Carl Barks and his art work and stories as well.

Additionaly I run over 200 web-sites which when grouped together, make up The Space Dock 13 Network. These sites, include 12 Fanlistings, 9 Blogs, 7 Forums, 56 Online stores, 13 sites devoted to my Disney fandoms, 68 web-rings, 2 RPG’s, a couple of sites where I review books, movies, & other web sites, countless various sites I built on a spur of the moment whim, and several small personal home pages, for a grand total of more than 3,000 pages! And The Space Dock 13 Network gets bigger every day… this blog is proof of that, as it is the newest addition to the Network; and watch for Space Dock 13 to grow even faster than ever, because my 3 teenaged brothers have just begun to to learn the art of creating web sites, already they have added 5 new sites to the Network!

I have been on the internet since 1997, I quickly became addicted and never looked back! I bet you can tell!

So what do I do when I’m not writing books or cruiseing online? Well, I love to watch movies and read. My fave actors are Vincent Price & Johnny Depp… and if you are a fan of JD too, than you’ll have caught that quote I slipped into the first paragraph of this post… If you missed it, than go back and re-read the first paragraph, if you still can’t find it, go watch Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, cause that’s what it came from.

Another actor/character combo I like is Alan Rickman as Prof. Snape.

I’m a life long fan of Willy Wonka… before Johnny Depp, and before Gene Wilder, there was the CANDY, CANDY, CANDY! In the 1970′s I was a taste-tester for The Willy Wonka Candy Company… I got to eat Nerds, Runts, Tart N Tinies, and Rinky-Dinks months before they hit the store shelves! Oh what bragging rights I had back than! I quickly became a devoted fan of the first movie staring Gene Wilder, and than when Johnny Depp took over as the new Wonka it was a dream come true! All Hail Wonka! (I’m eating Laffy Taffy, Lik-m-Dips, and Nerds as I write this!) Gotta love Wonka!

My fave writers are Kieth Laumer (Retief) and Douglass Adams (Hitchhicker’s Guide To The Galaxy & Dr. Who).

My fave TV shows are Darkwing Duck, X-Files, Star Trek (original), Dr. Who (Tom Baker), Xena, Colombo, and Sherlock Holmes staring Jeremy Brett.

My fave singers are C*C*DeVille, Poison, David Bowie, & Alice Cooper.

I love cats, dogs, roosters, birds, and esp. eels. (Have or have had pets of all of the above.)

I love living near the ocean, I love the smell of the salt air, the sound of the waves, the feel of the sand between my toes… nothing in the world is better than living on the cold icey North Atlantic Ocean!

Well, that’s me. Why not comment and tell me about you?
