14: Durias and Julie

What have I done? Durias stood frozen in the dimly lit dining hall, the little brunette bundled in his arms. The portal in the stone wall behind him fizzled and popped as it slid closed, the dark alleyway beyond the opening shimmering like the surface of a lake before fading back into the wall. His heart hammered in his chest as the reality of what he had done sank in. He had made a terrible, colossal, god-awful mistake. I should not have taken her. He had acted on impulse, throwing caution to the wind--something he had never done in his thirty-one years. In battle, such brash action would surely have gotten he and his men killed, and h

Elle and Mias Chapter 14

Elle awoke before dawn, unable to sleep. She walked to the river and washed her face, cleaning off the residual tears from her night of depression—her moment of weakness. Enough. She was done with this doubting, with crying, with feeling any of this pain. She had given everything she had to give. There were no more feelings she could feel. There was very little movement in the camp. A few early risers like her prepared for the camp’s busy activities. The early risers moved methodically, following their routine. It was time. This was never supposed to be permanent. This is a temporary situation, a time for preparation. A light

My Bio

I'm not really sure that I consider myself an artist, per se. I'm more of a perpetual dabbler. I sew, cross stitch, knit, doodle (I haven't made the effort for true drawn art in years), very amateur photography, make jewelry and the occasional Christmas ornament (nothing fancy). From time to time, I try my hand at poetry and short stories, but have produced little that I am satisfied with. Currently, my most common artsy-fartsy endeavors are jewelry or knitting, and I hope to soon add crocheting and quilting. I'm just a habitual hobbyist who goes where my whim takes me.

Devious Journal Entry

Well, it's a bit of a slow start, but I've finally started posting earrings for sale online! It's been a busy and hectic semester, so I still have a lot of earrings there aren't on there yet, but some of my more recent pieces can be found on my Etsy shop at http://www.etsy.com/shop/dLeighJewelry . Please check it out and let me know what you think! I'm learning the game (so to speak) at the moment, so advice on design, pricing, etc. is more than welcome! I'm mostly a self-taught amateur, and I have a lot to learn. So, critique away! Also, if you do see anything you want on DA that isn't on Etsy yet, let me know. Or, if you see anything on Et

Back to School

0 min read

Well, I know that all the high schoolers have already started back, but for most of the college crew school is just now getting started. I am so anxious to get started, just to have something to do...but I am also scared to death! I am starting Grad school as an English major.  I haven't written anything in about four years, and in the next four months I will have to write about one hundred pages!!! On top of that, I will also be working for the school that I am attending as part of my assistantship/scholarship. HEAVEN HELP ME!!! Anyway, things are about to get really hectic for me, and I doubt that I will have much time for DA (It's not lik
