The Exile of Ono Jiroemon — P10/
When Shogun Iemitsu heard of this, he was displeased. “This is not the conduct of a master instructor,” he declared, and ordered Jiroemon to be exiled to a distant island.

The Exile of Ono Jiroemon — P9/
But in that heartbeat, Jiroemon struck first. He smashed the iron fan into the man’s brow, crushing his skull. The man died instantly without a second word.

The Exile of Ono Jiroemon — P1/
🗡️ In those days, there was a foolish man in the Ryogoku district who set up a large sign. It read:
“Behold a swordsman unrivaled. I challenge anyone to a duel with live blades. I care not if I am cut down

The Matter of the Zen-Flavored Kyōka — P8/
(The poem is packed with puns: “empty” = kū = eat; “red flower” hints at nose hair; “green willow” = yanagi = the shop name; “pick freely” = mitori = the shop is open for browsing.)

[George King | Writer @GeorgeKingLit]

The Matter of the Zen-Flavored Kyōka — P7/
If they’re empty, then just hand them over for free—
nose-hair tweezers!
Yanagiya’s shop is “pick what you like” indeed!

He pocketed the tweezers and strolled away.

(Translated from Mimibukuro “Bag of Ears”)
The Matter of the Zen-Flavored Kyōka — P1/
🧘‍♂️ In the Shiba district of Edo there lived a metalware merchant named Yanagiya something-or-other.

Pacific Fear
10/10

The next morning, the American line found a dugout with three corpses, cut up and arranged in unflattering positions.
Joseph was alone—shaking and incoherent in his trench.

Pacific Fear
9/10

Moments later—a blood-curdling scream. Matty, run through with a bayonet.
This is it, Joseph thought. After two months rotting in this jungle, they’d finally come for him.

Pacific Fear
1/10

“Come out, Americans,” a Japanese soldier called from another dugout.
“Too yellow to fight? Don’t worry, we’ll bring the fight to you soon enough,” they taunted.

Watching Lord of the Rings with daughter. Finished the Fellowship, now watching Two Towers. So much fun watching with someone for their first time. Seeing Gandalfs death and return 🤯.

Already Decided
P1
Jacob cursed at Nel, “stay still, you useless nag,” as she shifted around.

The sun was mercilessly hot. Sweat poured down his dirty face, stinging his pores. Jacob was in a hurry to get moving.

An infamous pirate known as the Raven carves out a fearsome reputation in the Caribbean. Rumors paint them as everything from a ferocious, wild man to a fire-breathing demon. But the Raven's far more deadly than a demon—a woman hell-bent on revenge.

#FantasyIndiesFebruary Day 5

All of my FMCs have bits of me in them.

I can't imagine writing characters that don't, although some definitely have more than others. Writing these women is how I process things, experiences, feelings, the way the world works. It's therapy for me.
