NEW RELEASES
A New Calendar
I bought myself a new calendar for my desk. This time, it’s interesting quotes and trivia about famous authors and artists, so you can come to expect me to share from time to time.
With the advent of the new Sherlock Holmes movie out right now (which I saw by the way and really enjoyed – just don’t expect it to be very reminiscent of Doyle’s Holmes), I bring you this quote.
“If in one hundred years I am known only as the man who invented Sherlock Holmes, then I will have considered my life a failure.” – Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Well, yikes. This is quite disappointing isn’t it?
All in all, it’s a pretty good legacy, if you ask me.
First and foremost, Extreme Sheep was a delight that I have viewed at least 5 times over the last few days. Yes, I am easily entertained.
More importantly, because of your blog, I decided to create a blog of my own. My son, the one who ran naked to the neighbor’s house, has a blog about his twins. I have enjoyed it on a daily basis, since they are my grandchildren, and my son is an amazing writer who has won awards over the years for his “way with words.” He told me that it was not that difficult to start my own blog, but it didn’t really click until a friend gave me yours to check out.
I have looked forward to reading what you all have written, and it has sparked my creative drive. I certainly cannot play golf every day, especially since it is as cold as a witch’s toe in the morning, so I turn to the Quill Sisters for inspiration.
If you would like to know just what I do to keep myself sane and busy when I am not playing golf, or reading what you all have written, please check this out: rogueartistsspeak.blogspot.com/
