What is Change?
Nickels, dimes, and pennies from heaven or What is change now? ****** What is change? Is it all those nickels, dimes, quarters, and pennies that seem to accumulate all over the house? Or is it something else that makes us think about things. Does all that loose change laying around in unusual spots, change things for any of us one way or another? We can take all that loose change and change ourselves in some way, but how do we go about making change in one's life? Change is always happening somehow one way or another for each of us.

Talking Hearts
Author's Note: The photo is what the title, "Talking hearts couples" brought up on unsplash. First thing is we do not look like the couple above! I would have to pay the hubby to wear a bowtie, and I can't imagine he has ever worn one except for as a baby, and then he wouldn't leave it on for long.

Le Guin Apprenticeship Journal III(a)
It was the best of weekends. It was the worst of weekends. You see, I have a vice. A peccadillo, a weakness, if you will. I'm a slut for sentence fragments. You may have noticed if you've skimmed my work elsewhere around Vocal. But since we're working for more control through practice in this little endeavour of ours... here I am.

Playlist 'I'm good'
I finally had my "five minutes" after what felt like forever. One song came to my mind, and I couldn't get it out of my head, so I knew I had to play it out loud. As soon as I played it, it brought me to life. The song was very random and energetic, exactly what I needed. You know those people who, when asked what they're listening to, simply say, "Everything"? Yeah, that's me. But I actually mean it. I love listening to music from my part of the world because it carries something familiar, something close to my heart. But music in other languages? That's a whole different kind of magic. That's a whole new world.

Grim's mini lessons
We all know the story of the 'Frog Prince', I hope. The one where a frog fetches a princess's golden ball that rolled down an old well. Well, the lesson of the story is to make sure that one keeps her or his promises wanting to or not. Right on.

Fight The Giant — Cards against normality prompt: Not My Job — Give your hero new responsibilities, including a chance to prove herself. List three interesting jobs in your world, then brainstorm how your hero might fill them. Imagine your hero is drafting a resume. What, would she list for career goals? If your hero were to pretend to have another occupation, what might it be?

The Abstract
Here are two art pencils to complete the abstract of the accident scene and the blood flow of the victim. No one knows who the victim was or really cares, but someone must draw the scene to figure out who, what, when, where, and why this blood was found here.
