Ca ressemble à....

Ca ressemble de plus en plus à vrai blog ici, avec photos et gueulantes, et blablah anondins de fille! ^-^ bah, pourquoi pas, faut pas être trop sérieux dans la vie, ça la fait passer trop vite et puis j'ai faim aussi! (vu l'incohérence, on voit que j'ai trèèès faim!) ^__~

At first, I had planned to only post bits of writing, or to talk about writing in general only, but after all, why not post also about everyday life from time to time? A blog is made for this, blabbing and ranting, showing photos and saying when we're happy/unhappy ;)

I love taking pictures and buying pictures books...i don't always buy some (they're expensive! ^^) but I like strolling in bookshops and looking at some. Lately I've been looking at Victoria Frances' books, and I thought a lot of her girls and atmosphere were matching the one I have in mine for my heroine, or some places she'll go through, and thought it might help me keep a keen image of them if I buy the books.... there are days were a specific word or adjective just wouldn't come back to me, and maybe having the image under my eyes instead of just in my head could make the rebels come back faster to mind....?


Victoria Frances' art :

I'm NOT saying my girl looks like this, but sometimes, either the background or the girl's atmosphere resembles the ones I have in mind and wrote about so far, even if just a little (even if these pieces are not posted here yet^^). And above all, I like her arts, I like to have other people's opinions on them ^__^

About the artist now, often the see manga authors and how they're quite the complete opposite of their heroes (both mentally and physically), all the more when they have a peculiar style very much recurrent in every single series they write... but the funny thing is, this artist here quite resembles the heroines she draws, and she is pretty and well "formed" enough to wear the same kind of clothes for photo shootings or signing sessions :

Dreams of an Artemis

Why "Dreams of an Artemis"?

Several reasons made me choose this title for my first blog.

- First : "Artemis" - I have always liked greek and roman mythology, from this I got interested in the planetory systems and such as a kid. Amongst all the great mortals and gods of this mythology, the Lunar Goddess, Diana, Artemis, Phoebe, Selene, has been one of my favourites, and her love with the Mortal Prince Endymion seemed poetic and simply fabulous to my 9-year-old eyes.... I guess it left a mark in my mind after all these years ;)

- Second : I recently discovered the new blog of my favourite writer, Diana Gabaldon, which is called "Voyages of the Artemis", and the title seduced me at once, of course.... so yes, I guess you could say it's a reference to her blog. I hope it won't be considered as plain offensive copying if she ever stumbles upon this blog :/ (or worse, I wouldn't like any fans' wrath over this matter through heavy spamming....O_o)

- Lastly : Why "Dreams".... Diana Gabaldon is now famous, and her continuing work Outlander is now rivaled by her new projects, so we could say her literary career is a "Voyage" still going on. On the other hand, I just only recently took the courage to take time writing and let my impulse go free : I'm only at the beginning of my literary "career", which isn't one per say, since I'm not doing it as a professional or anything.... So I'll call my literary journey a succession of "Dreams" compared to her actual achievements. They're part of many readers' reality, and of course of her family and friends' lives, while mine is still only affecting Me, myself and I.... it's in my head....and my still few written texts.

Ahhh....as usual, I meant to write something short, and tons of lines lie there now, who in the world would read this bunch of blabbing? or maybe this is just for me alone for now ^__^ hehe, I don't know where this will go....

Is it really a good idea to post my writing here in the first place? I'm not really sure but I don't have English classes anymore, no teacher to correct or guide me, so if constructive remarks or encouragements can be gained through here, I have very little to lose :)
