Writing Thoughts: Homework for the rest of your life…

Being a writer is like having homework every night for the rest of your life. — Lawrence Kasdan, screenplay writer and author Kasdan, the screenplay writer of some major motion pictures in the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises among other things, is 100% correct.  Being a writer, and especially a daily blogger, means I’ve signed myself…

Adventurers by Sandara (and cats!)

On Saturday, our Pathfinder group infiltrated a massive Giant’s fortress by trudging through a deep cave system infested with undead spiders and a kobold with barbarian levels, but we came through pretty unscathed.  These Adventurers, by the legendary Singaporean artist sandara, might not be so lucky, facing this black dragon…!  She painted this as an exclusive…

Bisexual Dragon by ApocalypticCats for Bi Visibility Day

I almost missed my own holiday, can you believe it?  Today, September 23, is Bi Visibility Day, so I found another cute dragon-representation of my own sexuality with this Bisexual Dragon by Australian deviantartist Emily, posting as ApocalypticCats (great name, right?).  Emily has a cute, quirky way of drawing dragons (mostly without wings…?) that’s really growing…

Urnes Dragon Plate by Thorskegga Thorn

On Sunday Night Football, my beloved Green Bay Packers played our hated rival, the Minnesota Vikings.  That inspired me to find some Viking art, and U.K. deviantartist Thorskegga Thorn certainly delivered!  Above is a pyrography called Urnes Dragon Plate, “loosely based on the Urnes style of Viking Art with a dash of Ringerike,” according to the…

Three Chocolate Dragons for International Chocolate Day

According to the New York Daily News, today is International Chocolate Day, in honor of the birthday of American confectionist Milton S. Hershey, founder of the famous Hershey’s chocolate company.  In that spirit, today I’m sharing a couple of chocolate dragons, starting with this Kawaii Chocolate Dragon by American deviantartist KBelleC.  It’s so tiny and kawaii! You can…

Hoard of Cheese by Iguana Mouth (and Go Pack Go!)

In honor of my Green Bay Packers having their first NFL football game today, here’s another of the awesome Hoard of… series, by the super talented artist Lauren, also known as Iguana Mouth.  This time, it’s Hoard of Cheese!  We Packer fans are also known as cheeseheads, in case you didn’t know! Lauren has lots of…

Pathfinder White Dragon Pyrography by Chris Katt

We played Pathfinder again today, so I found this lovely Pathfinder White Dragon by American professional artist Christopher Katt, a wood burning (called pyrography) created on a 5″ square piece of birch wood.  This is a really interesting art style, and I can’t believe the kind of detail Chris has created on such a small…
