Weekly Update #233

Hello Readers.

The first draft of “Hunting for Helen” is now complete. Though it is done and now resting before I go into editing and revisions, I already know I left too much hanging to call the overall story complete. So, there will be a part four to “Helen and the Angel.”

With “Hunting for Helen” out of the way, I went back to story boarding a few stories. I’ve had a few good ideas for Twisted Tropes and another For the Love of Death series and want to get them fleshed out some.

This coming week, I want to also start some editing on some other stories and hopefully get “Naming the Seeress” ready for a round of beta readers. In addition, I want to go back to “The Wish” and do a story board of it as the prologue of a novel.

That is it for this week, take care everyone.

Interesting in buying one of my books? You can get more information here.

Dear Lovely Peeps, for anyone who might appreciate this #Today

Today I’m flying low and I’m
not saying a word.
I’m letting all the voodoos of ambition sleep.

The world goes on as it must,
the bees in the garden rumbling a little,
the fish leaping, the gnats getting eaten.
And so forth.

But I’m taking the day off.
Quiet as a feather.
I hardly move though really I’m travelling
a terrific distance.

Stillness. One of the doors
into the temple.

Read my Poems Published by Horrific Scribblings

Pretty straightforward blog post today. I was fortunate enough for Horrific Scribblings an excellent literary magazine to accept and publish three of my poems recently in one of their issues.

All three poems followed the same theme of horrific cultural folklore. The collection was titled: “Stones, Bridges, and Blades: Three Poems of Legend and Lore.”

You can read all three of them right here

Like I said above, there are three poems in all.

One poem is about Medusa, and the POV of the statues in her acropolis of terror. I love that I’ve been wanting an excuse to use the word ‘acropolis’ and I made a poem for the occasion.

The second poem is about a troll who cannot stand any sound. I’ve wanted to use a pickling mechanic in my creature design, and this poem has it. Very disturbing.

The third poem is what attracted this lit magazine to my voice initially, and its about the relationship between a warrior and his haunted sword. How a hunger for violence can spread to inanimate objects, and be mutually beneficial.

Besides my poetry, you really should just read this lit magazine in general. They have amazing content, and if you like horror or write it, this is a must of a destination. I’ve highly enjoyed what I’ve digested from Horrific Scribblings. Very honored that they took a chance on my voice.

You can find the main page right here

Thank you for the support everyone!

Lucky enough to get some of my poems published over at Horrific Scribblings. More details in the post below, plus the link. Very honored and most appreciated.

Ὅσο τοῦ διώχνανε τὰ ὄνειρά του τόσο γεμίζαν τὸ κενὸ χαρὲς | Ρέα Γαλανάκη 

[HORROR VACUI* | Ρέα Γαλανάκη]

Ὅσο τοῦ διώχνανε τὰ ὄνειρά του

τόσο γεμίζαν τὸ κενὸ χαρὲς

ἀπὸ τὴν τέχνη τῆς διακόσμησης:

καφές, τσιγάρο, δειλινό.

Αδύνατο νὰ γίνει τέλεια δυστυχισμένος.

*Φρίκη του κενού: Τεχνοτροπία

Αξιοσημείωτα από το βιβλίο της Ρέας Γαλανάκη «Πλην εύχαρις – Τα ορυκτά»

Βλέπω στο βλέμμα σου
Την έκπληξη
Πόσο λάθος με εκτίμησες
Πόσο λάθος με χαρακτήρισες
