#7 Was Forged in the Heart of a Dying Star

THOR.


So I actually love this movie.

Genres: Superhero, Fancy Hair, Possible Minnesotan

Ok, fine I'm totally making up genres. But seriously. There might be a Minnesotan in it. I like to believe that Erik Selvig began his life in Minnesota, perhaps growing up in a rural Swedish community out in the plains, and did his undergrad, masters and maybe one of his doctorates at the University of Minnesota. LET ME HAVE MY DREAMS.


Highlights:
Chris Hemsworth is a magical god of thunder
Asgard! So pretty!
Natalie Portman being a boss
Thor is such a jerk!



Lowlights:
It's basically a story about a jerk learning how to become slightly less of a jerk
umm... not enough of Thor saying silly things


Like I mentioned, I love this movie. 

True fact, I am not a Loki fan. I mean, he's alright, but why do they keep on making his hair sillier in every movie? Why doesn't he have access to a decent hairdresser? I mean, there must be SOMEONE out there who can cut his hair. Someone. Somewhere.

I'm a big fan of the Rainbow Bridge. Every time they cross it I go all, 
ROYAL RAINBOW
BLARGH. 
I don't think the King actually makes a barfing noise when he does his royal rainbow, but I obviously have a problem, so I make the noise for him.


Yup. That happens. 
Other things about this movie....
Kat Dennings should be considered a national treasure, just because of her five lines in this movie. Each of them is delivered like gold.


And, lastly, Thor is gorgeous.



Thor used to be my favorite Avenger.
Then I saw Captain America 2 and.... how...how did Chris Evans become so hot???? More on that later.

IT'S ALIIIIIIIVE

I mean, what's two years in the life of an indifferent blogger? Just a blink of the eye. So, kudos to me, it's not NaNoWriMo and I'm updating my blog!!!!! Anyway I thought I'd update the ol' Spete Blog with my newest publication announcement! Two (2) short stories! Both are older (3+ years old) works that I decided on a whim to publish ( read as: I was working on my novel and had fallen into a pit of despair because it's so long and I'm never going to finish the thing and I dismally remembered that I haven't published anything since Andrian Adventures like 10 years ago and what is even the point of keeping all my old stories to myself on my laptop if I'm just going to stare sadly at them day and isn't it much better to publish them and then stare sadly at the 0 Sales report instead ) .  They're fractured fairy tales of the silliest sort. Also, both take place in the kingdom of Atlis. I have done so much world building f...

Hello...

Um, hi. Long time no see! I was dicking around on the NaNoWriMo website today and realized that I have a link to my blog on it, and I was all, "oh yeah that's right, I have a blog!" *insert derp noises* Ok. My life. November: It DID major snowstorm on the 2nd of November, which was a slap in the face after the beautiful fall we'd been having I did write a science fiction story for NaNoWriMo and it was based off the fairytale that I was going to base it off of, and it turned into a hot hot hot HOT mess because oh yes that's right, I'm terrible at NaNoWriMo. But the main character was named Bix, and there was a computer who was in the body of a human, and an evil mastermind who just kidnapped people for no reason, and at the end a very possible alien invasion! idk. It's on my list of stories to go back and revise, because I do think it has potential, but I sort of lost my control over the story about halfway through the month Thanksgiving was fun...

This is Not a Drill

FRIENDS I DID IT. I MADE A BOOK. Hold onto your pants folks, for coming in mid-April is As the King , a Young Adult Fantasy novel full of sword-fights, wicked uncles, and mistaken identities!   ( it has none of those things, don't listen to me) ~~~ (artwork by the amazing Marion !) This is Elisan, our intrepid heroine. She is unfashionably freckled but please don't hold it against her.  She was shipped off by her family to live with a foreign aunt and uncle at a young age with no explanation why. While traumatizing at the time, she's now decided was for the best, as she is quite content with her life. Elisan enjoys climbing trees, drinking tea, boxing, and dancing. She is not an accomplished artist, thinks she's a better actor than she really is, and  will  fight you if you insult one of her friends. She can currently be found boarding a train back to Verica, having just received a mysterious letter which claims she's th...
