  • Thoughts on my reread through the Bible # 1

    Read Genesis 1 & 2 yesterday Psalms 1 & Matthew 1. I like how there are echoes through New & Old Testament - seeds & lineage. Rivers in Eden & Psalms 1 - [QUOTE]He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.[/QUOTE] My favorite scriptures is the creation of Adam & Eve and how after speaking everything into existence God uses his hands to create man and his breath to bring him to life - showing the personal relationship & separation between mankind and animals. Made in...

  • Rereading through the Bible again this year - read along if you like.

    Happy New Year! This year I decided to start reading the Bible all the way through again. I like to mix it up though, by reading the OT & NT at the same time with a psalm as well. If you want to join me here's where I'm starting - Reading tonight Genesis chapters 1&2 + Matthew 1 & Psalm 1

  • Thoughts on my reread through the Bible # 2

    Read Genesis 3&4. Psalms 2 & Matthew 2. The fall there’s so much here – one thing that stood out was when God put the animal skins on to clothe them. I remember reading in Peter Benchley’s the Island how animal skins were placed on a person’s body with the blood etc still fresh so that the skins would mold to their flesh and fit better. As soon as I read that it made me think of Adam & Eve. Jesus’s blood is the only thing that will take away everyone's sins and yet till he arrives – the blood of animals is the only thing that temporarily covers the sin. Also noteworthy - Satan a.k.a the...

  • The Cities of My World

    Imagine a particle that can change shape, colour, and other attributes. A particle that does not decay in time. Now imagine a city built from this particle. Its marble columns stretching as far as the skyscrapers they adorn. Ornaments and details that can change from being blue to green within a single hour, or any other colour. Think if such a city took inspiration from our renaissance. Murals that are alive and move like a cinematic movie, all telling their own little stories in slow-motion. Where ever you looked, there would be a masterpiece occurring before your eyes. A city designed...

  • Thoughts on my reread through the Bible # 3

    Read Genesis 5&6 Psalms 3 & Matthew 3. - The genealogy of Adam – this is where a lot of people who have never read the bible or have merely glanced at it have mess up. They assume Adam either had 2 sons – Cain & Abel or 3 Cain & Abel & Seth – the fact of the matter is we have no idea how many sons or daughters Adam and Eve had because they’re lumped together in a sentence after Seth is mentioned and this is because only Seth is important to the bloodline of Christ – and for this part – the bloodline to Noah. The rest of their children and great grandchild – 14 generations will be wiped...

  1. Reader, protag connections.

    Hello people who will probably not read this, he, he. I'm nothing special just a member I actually don't even consider myself a senior member and since reviewing seems to be the special topic for now I'm going to talk about it too. I'm not much of a grammatically correct person. My comma's and what not don't always go in the right place. But I can still offer an okay critic. My speciality, reader, protag connection and wordiness. I like to give a pretty thorough critic. My fav hang outs on...
  2. Traveling part 1

    For anyone who's interested here's the first part of a journal I started writing for my Mom. She's posted it already on a board she and my Dad run, and its been posted on another board for seniors.
    I have seven entries so far, and will keep writing them as long as interesting things keep happening. Some of the experiences will also be used in a book I am writing about a few people traveling over seas to work in China.

    Enjoy.

  3. A decision about my zombie stories

    Hello everyone

    This is the writing part of my blog. I'll be posting two types. One will be about my travels in China, the other will focus on writing.
    I already have journal entries about my traveling written up, unfortunately I can't find them, so I'll start posting them up later, when I get them e-mailed back to me by my parents.

    Anyways, on with the writing.
    I had until recently been posting practice horror stories, for free on the net. Just to see what people thought. Most of...

  4. An Interesting Experience

    Several of my friends and myself were at a local festival this evening, when one of them gets the bright idea to climb onto the roof of a local public building. It was just for fun and didn't seem like that big of a deal. He was supposed to go up there, let us a take a picture, and get down.

    That happened, but immediately following, the park police swarmed the place. We had at least three vehicles pull up within ten seconds after he jumped from the roof. The first one came at him boldly,...

  5. Productivity

    I've found that my self-esteem is directly related to how productive I am. At the moment, it's kind of a mixed barrel.

    On one hand, I'm quite proud of myself for finally getting my comic site set up. I've been devoting a lot of my time this week to editing my existing comics and drawing new ones. I hope that I won't lose interest in this project like I have in many other ones, because I think it could be successful if I stick with it.

    On the other hand, I'm unemployed and pretty...
  6. [JDK]; Some Background Information

    Those who know me since I've joined writingforums.org know that I usually keep to song lyrics when posting on these forums. Well, with the addition of blogs on here, I decided that I may use this to post more about [JDK] itself.

    [JDK] actually stands for Juvenile Delinquent Kids, and came from a joke from two summers ago. The name for the band needed to have meaning, so it seemed like a perfect idea to have meaning to us and as a strong sounding name for a band.

    There are a lot of...
  7. Testing!?

    Testing this out...

    Testing...1...2...3. :p

    The new site is pretty snazztastic, pretty cool. YAY!

    I am entering the writing contest. Fabulous timing, because just moments ago I was doing some serious thinking (in the shower no less) about a new story. I was planning on making it a novel, but who knows?

    All beware, because my writing skills are simply fantastic. :p ...Sorta.
  8. Crimson Fist: The Necrosphere

    From somewhere my writing inspiration has returned and I have decided to re-vamp my first crimson fist story.

    In fact I'll proberly re-vamp the four stories.

    The four stories were very hugely popular on a few forums 40konline been the first place i posted them.

    Though they are fan fiction i do enjoy the subject of Warhammer 40,000.

    The first story is the shortest and follows the main character. from been new to his command straight through to his final moments in the fourth...
  9. School

    I am basically going insane waiting to go back to school in January. I was in college for a year and then moved from Pittsburgh to Atlanta, causing me to drop out. After two years of working retail (which I hate), i'm finally able to quit my job and go back to school.

    Working at Barnes 'N Noble is great for the thirty percent discount and being around books all day, but the customers suck. I hate being yelled at by obnoxious customers who can't stand it when they give me one word of the...
  10. The latest I'm reading.

    Descent of Angels
    Mitchel Scanlon : Nov 07 (UK)

    The long awaited story of the Dark Angels and their struggle for loyalty and honour.

    This ground-breaking, SF chart-topping series tells the story of the Horus Heresy – the civil war that nearly tore the Imperium apart, ten thousand years ago....
  12. Tears Of Africa

    I started work on my new project.

    A short story called tears Of Africa.
    The story is set in Africa and focuses on the continuous fighting.

    Its very different from my usual style I have already posted up the first three segments in the novel section of the forum.

    Though the story is extremely graphic, I'm focusing on the realistic elements of the situation.
  13. Chronicles

    A recent interest has been sparked in my original draft from my dark sci-fi story Chronilces.

    So I have decided to suspend posting further work with regards to the story on the forum. Im certainly hoping to see the story hit a paper back format but thats way in the early days. And could be me been a little too hopeful. Fingers crossed anyway.

    I'll keep the blog updated as I hear.
  14. Britain, Russia square off in spy case

    A period of tense relations between Britain and Russia is expected following the British request for the extradition of a former KGB agent Andrei Lugovoi over the murder of Alexander Litvinenko.

    However, the British government is determined that the criminal investigation should take priority over any diplomatic difficulties and is quite prepared for a delicate period ahead with Moscow as the extradition request takes its course.

    Indeed, it will defend its position by sticking by...
  15. Russia sends warning to the West

    President Vladimir Putin's decision to suspend Russia's participation in the Conventional Forces in Europe, or CFE, treaty is a potent political signal.

    It is yet another sign of the worsening relationship between Moscow and the West.

    It shows that this relationship was not improved in any substantial way by the informal meeting at the start of this month between the US and Russian presidents at the Bush family's holiday home at Kennebunkport in Maine.

    It is another diplomatic...
