To my readers,
Been working on my screenplay for awhile now and I'm really making headway. I moved into the big climax and wanted to share some details with you. This is a suspense/thriller. For those interested in such films, I have described it as A Perfect Murder meets The Roommate meets Psycho. It has unusual plot twists similar to A Perfect Murder. It has a character with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) like Psycho. And the elements of the roommate with two girls living together. I don't want to give away too much of the story, but I think viewers would enjoy it. For more exciting news and updates please check back to the site. I will post in the blog and as always the site is always being updated with some new material. I look forward to sharing more with you in the future. Streams of Silver by R.A. Salvatore Review In the previous book, the companions were fighting to save the town they lived in from an evil and misguided wizard. Now, the companions seek out a new home. Join Drizzt, Bruenor, Wulfgar and Regis on another adventure. This time, the companions are in search of Bruenor’s childhood home, a place his clan was driven from two centuries earlier. The road will be hard and their will be many dangers along the way. Not everything on this adventure is as bright as the companions would hope. With danger following behind and danger all around, the companions may lose heart on their trek. Let us not forget about the Crystal Shard just yet either, for wizards still seek it’s power. From start to finish, this book was more exciting thant the one before it. The battle scenes were more descriptive and more captivating. The characters were given even more depth and more purpose. Bruenor seeks out a home that has long been forgotten. Drizzt and Wulgar are willing to follow him to the end. Even Regis, usually the one causing trouble and needing to be rescued, finds courage and loyalty within himself on this journey. Streams of Silver refers to the treasure that lies within Mithral Hall, Breunor’s lost home. The streams of silver are the lines of mithral that the mine was famous for. If this is beginning ot sound like Lord of the Rings again, well just remember where Salvatore drew his inspiration. The mithral of Mitral Hall was used to form armor that was strong and resilient. Salvatore addresses cultural issues within his pages as well. He uses Drizz, a dark skinned elf, to represent racial discrimination as he is turned away from each place based on what he is and not who he is. He also addresses the need for a goal and to be wary of society ideas of equality. “Beware the engineers of society,... who would make everyone in all the world equal. Opportunity should be equal,... but achievement must remain individual. (p.224-225) Though still bearing some similarity to Tolkein, it is still a far easier read with just as much adventure. Music is a magic that many hear and many listen to for their own reasons. It calms the body, it speaks to our hearts. All around us is sound. Give sound a beat and you have created a rhythm to your life. Now add lyrics to represent the words you cannot say. You have created a song. Songs speak volumes that are understood by the mind and soul. I am bound by the songs of my life, that speak when I cannot find the words. So in a sense, isn't music a magic all it's own? A magic that can be altogether binding for those that understand it best. For when you understand the music, you understand yourself and you understand the musician. Have that artist you've followed since his/her beginning? Please share in the comments. |
