I’m blessed to have a talented author and friend with me today. If you love Greek gods and YA lit, then you should be reading her series. Seriously. She’s going to take it from here… …………oOo……….. Hi! I’m Jessica Therrien, author of the YA paranormal romance series, CHILDREN OF THE GODS, and I’m here to…
It’s National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) which means I’ll be glued to my computer more than usual – if that’s even possible! There is so much work to complete. But, something exciting is happening today and breaks are necessary, every now and again. Especially for something as cool as this! Today is the day! The…
The myths and legends of gods are seductive and alluring. Maybe that’s why we’re often drawn to the topic here on #ImmortalMonday. Yes, it’s here on Tuesday as promised, and I have exciting news. My friend and fellow writer, Jessica Therrien, is releasing the much-anticipated second book in her highly successful Children of the Gods series TODAY!…
I personally find the Moirai fascinating. You may be familiar with them from the movie Clash of the Titans. They were depicted, as they have been described through the myths, as three haggard old women. I’ve gotten to know them fairly well over this last year and thought they were an ideal topic for this…
Fan of Supernatural? How about Greek Mythology? The two will collide this week when our favorite demon hunters mistake a Titan for a zombie. You heard me right – a Titan! Prometheus will find himself on prime time television with the Winchester boys. I’ve enjoyed Supernatural for its inception and I don’t think it’s any…
Oh, to love without return. To be pursued without end. This is the story of our immortals, Daphne and Apollo. We explored Apollo a few weeks ago on Immortal Monday, and at that time some interest was expressed in learning more about Daphne. Daphne, the daughter of the river god, Peneus, was a lovely Naiad…
I think it’s high time we return to our Greek god series here on Immortal Monday. Wouldn’t you agree? When you think of the god Apollo, do visions of the sun god come to mind? Did you know Apollo wasn’t always known for the sun, but for prophecy, music and healing? That’s right, healing. A…
Immortal Monday is taking the next couple of weeks off. But being me, I couldn’t leave you totally empty handed. Having covered the Greek gods on several occasions I thought you might enjoy exploring the myth of Athena and Arachne. I’ll let the video do the talking. This is one interpretation. Have you heard of another?…
Zeus: “Father of Gods and Men.” Sound like a grand title to you? This is Zeus. The Olympian who took control of Mount Olympus. I can’t think of a better immortal for our Immortal Monday focus around Father’s Day, can you? You may recall we covered the birth and rise of Zeus in our Poseidon…
May is a day away, the month we celebrate Mother’s Day. How appropriate, then, that we should look at Hera, Queen and mother of the Greek Gods on this Immortal Monday. Hera is often thought of as quarrelsome and jealous. But then she had to endure a husband who was always playing around where he didn’t…
I know it was said that elves would be invading Immortal Monday, but I didn’t say when! I have been sidetracked by the moon in Aries, my birth sign. You know, the astrological sign? Silly as it may be, it got me thinking about the moons of Mars and Mars ruling over Aries. What does…
Valentine’s Day is only two days away! That makes it fitting to have the goddess most associated with love as our topic here today on Immortal Monday. And it has been long overdue that this series embrace some mighty girl power! I’ve wanting to do that for some time now. I am tickled pink that…
