  1. Discover Dayna Styles: Complete Paranormal Why Choose Romance Trilogy

    18+ Contains Adult Content Last year, I did more than just book reviews on my blog. I wrote author interviews and also indie author spotlights. I think it's time to start bringing more to my blog again. So here is my first indie spotlight. Author Dayna Styles has what looks to be an incredible paranormal why-choose romance trilogy out, and book three has just been released today! If you’re like me and you hate starting a series only to discover the next book isn’t out yet and you have to wait…you won’t have that problem here; this is a completed trilogy. Pssst, did I mention it's Nymphs and Vampires? […]

  2. In Greek mythology, #Oceanus is the #Titan god of the great river that encircled the world, believed to be the source of all seas, rivers, and springs. He was one of the eldest Titans, born from #Gaia and #Uranus.

    Unlike most of his Titan siblings, Oceanus stayed out of the great war between the Titans and the #Olympians. With his wife and sister #Tethys, he fathered thousands of river gods and ocean #nymphs known as #Oceanids.

  7. A long LONG time ago in a holiday internet Photoshop contest, somebody photoshopped poor Santa into William-Adolphe Bouguereau's Nymphs and Satyr painting. I love it so much:

  8. ...he searched hither and thither for a fortnight, till at last he found that island, which was an island indeed with the sea over it and around it and beneath it. There dwelt the red-haired ocean-nymphs in glittering palaces among the sea-flowers...

    From The High Deeds of Finn and other Bardic Romances of Ancient Ireland, by T. W. Rolleston, et al, Illustrated by Stephen Reid

  9. Its fascinating how powerful #animism was at protecting the environment for most of existence. I just learned recently that the #nymphs in #Greek #mythology really no different than local #Shinto deities, or animal spirits of the Americas. Every rock, stream and tree had a spirit attached to it, and if one wanted to change or use the land, they had to know how to appeal to these spirits and do it sparingly.
    Even #polytheists had some variety of lesser animistic spirits that get lost among the big names. Of course, major roman brownies got upgraded to gods when they saw and liked the Greek #pantheon.
    To this day even if they don't actually believe in it, Icelanders use the concepts of land #elves as kind of an extra layer of bureaucracy before changing the land. Animists have been looked down on, as the most primitive form of religion. As modern science shows us that the environment is one of the most important things to protect, perhaps it is the most important and advanced form of #religion .
    Wanton destruction of the planet only happened when we switched to #monotheism and converted all those spirits into evil #demons in our minds. It opened up many new scientific and technological advances but wrecked the planet. Perhaps we need some form of applied animistic bureaucracy such as giving all things a certain level of rights and autonomy to ensure they survive for future generations to also enjoy. #environmentalism

    Look, the Forum Theatre it ain’t.
    Maybe, instead of gutting it the could add some extra #Kitsch? Frescos of #Satyrs and #Nymphs. Some #Grottos surrounded by plastic-leafed #Laurel bushes. A giant #Harp that anyone can have a play of if they want. If the decided to go in that direction I reckon I’d be happy to make the trek to #WestBrunswick once in a while.
