The Wyrm King
'The Wyrm King' the third and final volume of Beyond the Spiderwick Chronicles by Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black. In this volume the fantastical characters are really showing themselves and their various talents. Nick and Laurie and family and still learning and making compromises as well as promises trying to be kept in helping the Nixie's and the other people and entities. Nick along with all the others learn how to help each other past and present. Once again Holly Black's artwork would make great coloring pages. All of these books thanks to Tony and Holly were great show and tell books for all ages.
Mark GrahamPublished 12 days ago in CritiqueWhen We Were Very Young
In another box set that my parents got me when I was younger contained four books by A.A. Milne. 'When We Were Very Young' is a collection of poems that Milne wrote for his son Christopher Robin. This is a book that is full of references to Mr. Edward Bear, but a lot of the poems give some various descriptions of life of a very young child and where, when, how and why they do what they do. The illustrations are quite cute for you can see what Christopher Robin is and may be thinking. Also, Pooh Bear does make his self-known at various points. I have read these verses many, many times over the years and each time make me feel good about myself.

Prisoner in your own life
Whether it is a result of the choices you made, the consequences of those of your parents or rather the result of the fate handed to you by the universe, it is possible for you to be a prisoner in your own life. You might be wondering how is it possible to be a prisoner in your own life, the first question would rather be what is a prisoner? Or what does it mean to be a prisoner?
Old Typewriter
This critique and acrostic poem will show readers why I chose this image for most of my writing. Old-fashioned typing mode for the sound it made clickity-clack or something like that.
Mark GrahamPublished 3 months ago in CritiqueWould You Read These Stories Based on These Blurbs?
For the record, none of these are actual stories, just fun ideas I came up with while I'm working on my book's blurb right now and thought, hey, this is fun. I want to make some more. 🤣

April
(this is a novel idea I have, and this is the beginning that came to me and I would love to know if this gets your interest. Of course, any other critique is also welcome. Do you like the first person, or would you prefer the third person? I am thinking of adding names, and a little more history but I want to see if this is even a start that is interesting.)

Critiques Needed: First pages of Project Styx
Authors note: I would like constructive critiques on the first pages of a sci-fi fantasy book I am working on. I would like to know first impressions and things that need to be worked on. This is so I can get an idea of what an agent or editor might think. I also know that this is long—no need to read the whole thing, in fact, tell me when you lose interest.

Critiquing
So, what is critiquing. To me it is all about giving short summaries of various pieces of writing and/or artwork. It is a chance to share an opinion or two without getting into a whole review. A critique is showing the good and bad points of a work that may not be bad to the writer/artist. It is a chance to also give some suggestions to the author to improve the work if needed.

Beautiful Boy: Heartbreak and Hope.
I first heard of Beautiful Boy. When I was looking for something to watch on Amazon Prime video with one of my favorite actors. I had heard bits and pieces about the film. including the two main Actors. Timothee Chalamet, (Nic) and Steve Carell. (David) Before I watched it I assumed it was another addiction movie in which the character develops an addiction, recovers, relapses once or twice, and is fine and recovers fully by the end of the film.

Now, take a look at this, and hiss, because voter perils are still lurking lazily under poling fingers. So, here's to you oh! A little thing called "What am I missing?" A poem of the times, yes, and it goes like this.
IN-DEPTH | NPU: For Class or the Masses?
Our Sintang Paaralan is hanging on a thread with the possible approval of the National Polytechnic University (NPU) bill. The law promises additional funding for the university, which it deserves; however, whispers of potential tuition fees and compromised autonomy instilled a shadow of unease on PUPians. Will ‘sinta’ remain accessible to all or will it morph into something reserved for the privileged few?
