Flight of the Red Dragonfly: June 2014

http://rebeccalangfantasy.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

Flight of the Red Dragonfly. Monday, June 30, 2014. Weekly Update: 6-30-14 Big Bear and Vegas. This week has been full of traveling: the small, day-trip sort of travel, but travel nontheless. Last Monday, for instance, my father and I went to Big Bear, up in the San Bernardino Mountains, to research my ghost story Company. Or that live Western Juniper trees can sometimes grow out of dead ones, twisting together into a single entity? It was newly painted, full of tourists, and chock full of events. In...

Flight of the Red Dragonfly: Weekly Update: I'm Back!

http://rebeccalangfantasy.blogspot.com/2015/08/weekly-update-im-back.html

Flight of the Red Dragonfly. Friday, August 14, 2015. Weekly Update: I'm Back! Two months without a post. I've guess I've got some explaining to do. I'm in trouble now. I didn't actually intend to abandon the blog. It's more like it got pushed out of the way. After all the stress of publishing and launching my first book gave way, I just sort of collapsed. Mentally, not physically. I needed a break. and it just ended up being longer than I intended. Plus, I was busy with other things. A light, funny triv...

Flight of the Red Dragonfly: January 2015

http://rebeccalangfantasy.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html

Flight of the Red Dragonfly. Saturday, January 31, 2015. Poem: Picnic at Manzanar. Have gone in our bellies. Now we sit swapping licorice. On shaded park benches. In a place where the desert. Crashes into the mountains. But had we arrived. Just seventy years sooner. We might have dined on. Jello served on steamed rice. And listened to teeth chatter. In the cramped, hot mess hall. How strange this quiet tragedy. Has brought us all together. In a place where barbed wire. Lies on the other side of the river.

Flight of the Red Dragonfly: July 2014

http://rebeccalangfantasy.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html

Flight of the Red Dragonfly. Wednesday, July 30, 2014. Shakespeare by the Sea. Saturday, July 19th. It's funny. As a child, when I thought Shakespeare was the worst thing anyone could read. (Little did I know of Milton and Melville.) I never thought, as I grew older, I'd come to appreciate the action, the drama, and, yes, even the language. I never thought I'd seek out performances of the bard's musty 400-year-old play. But that's what happened. Opening Scene of Hamlet. Shakespeare by the Sea. Is a boome...

http://rebeccalangfantasy.blogspot.com/2015/06/weekly-update-6-18-15-lunch-upgrades.html

Flight of the Red Dragonfly. Thursday, June 18, 2015. Weekly Update: 6-18-15 Lunch Upgrades. But now, summer is here and I have time to enjoy the finer things in life. Like delicious and nutritious lunches. This is my time to experiment with in the kitchen with yummy combinations that keep me satisfied and healthy. Today, for example, I did my take on a light version of a chicken salad sandwich, bursting with fruit and veggies. I accompanied it with an apple and a fizzy sherbet float. Yum! There's someth...

Flight of the Red Dragonfly: May 2014

http://rebeccalangfantasy.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html

Flight of the Red Dragonfly. Saturday, May 31, 2014. Weekly Update: 5-31-14 Cover. I have a cover for The Changelings. Five covers to be exact. Kaleo Welborn, a talented illustrator and a member of the Brea Library Writer's Group, was kind enough to sketch some "roughs," samples of the cover based on my descriptions. As I have no great sense of graphic art, it was a huge relief to brainstorm with someone who could take my ideas and sketch them into something solid. Today I got them back. But for now, I j...

Flight of the Red Dragonfly: April 2014

http://rebeccalangfantasy.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html

Flight of the Red Dragonfly. Sunday, April 27, 2014. A few years ago, I read an article on Steven Pressfield. S website about revising in layers. Unfortunately, I can't for the life of me remember the title or even give a more specific summary. What I do recall, though, is that this mysterious article came as a revelation. I'd figured out the plot, so mission accomplished. Here's how it works. I call ideas the soul of the story because they are mysterious and hard to explain, but without one the story wi...

Flight of the Red Dragonfly: March 2015

http://rebeccalangfantasy.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html

Flight of the Red Dragonfly. Sunday, March 29, 2015. Travelogue: Bowers Museum and 85 Degrees C. Santa Ana, CA. Sunday, March 1, 2015. Museum Admission: $13 for an adult. Museum Parking: $6.00. Kris had actually come for the Celtic Festival and spent most of her time at the lobby where the stage was set up. I had come for a different reason. I wanted to set my newest fantasy novel, Counterfeit Diamond. I declined. We'd just come from lunch at Maru Sushi. Figures and the elaborately carved erong. Or coffi...
