Mysterious Magical, and Mystical

(okay - so this is totally stolen from my profile page, eh?)

I am co-hosting a write off, and I'd love to have you join in! "Mysterious, Magical, and Mystical" is the subject. The cool thing about this write off, is that it is not restricted to books, music, movies, or stuff. It can be any of those things! It could be a tarot deck, a magical movie, a mystical book, or anything you consider to be magical or mysterious. Want to write about a fairy tale? Cool.

Entries must be posted on June 20th, 21st, or 22nd. (Timed to match the Summer Solstice!) Entries should be actual reviews of the item you chose, and something about why you chose that item. Entries must also list the other participants in the write-off at the end of the review. Please indicate somewhere in your title or "bottom line" the fact that this is part of the write off.

If you are interested, please email me at katmarsh@attbi.com - or send me a message here.
Here are the participants so far:

Oh Snap

Count me in as though you were counting the number of green Skittles in a satchel that you just purchased for $0.65 from CVS. I don't know how to make a "cents" character, though I wish I did.

I'm a very mysterious person, so I hope y'all can handle the mind-blowingly mysterious and enigmatic review I'm gonna drop. Oh snap, oh snap.

Cheers,

Neil you're too funny!

I got you both on the list. Thanks!


Frankly, I'm dying to know what people are going to write about. Sheesh - I'm hosting the damn thing, and I just picked mine yesterday.

I might be able to do this. I have several books that fit this write off. I've read the books, but posting....ummm, guess summer solstice is close enough to a blue moon

I'll let you know if I can swing the muse into gear in time. I'm afraid it will be near the deadline since I'm backed up at work, trying to organize a garage sale and juggling several other stupid little events in my life.

I'll post here if I'm definately in.

But, I will make sure to check everyone's review out!

I sure wish that I could

I honestly do not have the time right now!

Would be a perfect time thought!

Don't know if I can still do this. Hubby broke my hard drive and had to buy a whole new PC and now he can't figure out how to get everything back on the new one. He is, of course, golfing for the next 2 nights so, who knows when this will be fixed.

I'll let you know here if I can or not (since email isn't freaking working either!)

Agreed! We have reviews on music, movies, toys, and a slew of books!

My review is on the Ouija Board, and Fiona's is on a spiffy new Tarot deck.

I wonder if anyone will write about a mysterious magical toaster?
