Slight syncopation seen with such similar substantiated successions. Single sentences sanctify such sabbaticals stating specifically selected “S”s, as sublime, not surly.

If you read this delightful book you may think twice about octopuses. To prove my point, look at this! NPR article below!

A phrase used by the title character in the play Hamlet, by William Shakespeare. Hamlet suggests that human knowledge is limited: There are more things in heaven and Earth, Horatio, / Than are dreamt of in your philosophy [science].

Do you think it helps or hinders a writer from having a big ego? Maybe both?

How often do you read your blog content from an outsider’s perspective? If I receive an interesting comment I do look back to understand how they interpreted what I wrote.

I view my blog as an allotment garden. How do you view yours? A place to have fun and learn new things.

What’s the first book you ever remember reading way back when? Black Beauty

Were you ever read to as a child, and by whom? I don’t remember but probably my sister.

Where do you like to read? At home on the couch? Whilst travelling? In bed? Where? I read blogs and emails, the news etc but I listen to audio books anywhere anytime. I’m addicted.😁

What are the most significant barriers to your creativity? Probably knowledge but I do love researching words etc. I scribble and it’s hard for me to think of it as writing with a capital W.

Do you think blogging is essential, and if you do, why? It’s been an essential since 2015. It started out as a way to take my mind off my health and kept me busy during recuperation.

There are many benefits to blogging; however, what are the three top downsides of blogging, in your opinion? Very difficult poetry challenges, sifting through all the reblogs when I’ve already read the original, the whimsy and prolific disgusting ads on WP that interrupt poems and stories, etc.

Thanks again, Rory☺️

S for Scylla. In Greek mythology, Scylla was the daughter of Forky and Kitos, once a beautiful Nymph whom Poseidon longed for. The jealous Amphitrite, Poseidon’s partner, turned her into a monster. She haunted the rocks of a narrow strait opposite the whirlpool of another terrible monster, Charybdis. In Odyssey, Ulysses’ ship passes through the strait, after losing six of his men who were eaten alive by the monster.

One tradition relates that Scylla originally was a beautiful maiden, who often played with the nymphs of the sea, and was beloved by the marine god Glaucus. He applied to Circe for means to make Scylla return his love; but Circe, jealous of the fair maiden, threw magic herbs into the well in which Scylla was wont to bathe, and by these herbs the maiden was metamorphosed in such a manner, that the upper part of her body remained that of a woman, while the lower part was changed into the tail of a fish or serpent, surrounded by dogs
