I love them all, especially the last two. My pet peeve (after “between you and I”) is the constant misuse of apostrophes. As for the last one, it speaks for itself.

Glad youi enjoyed them, Liz. And I think we can all identify with that last one! š I know what you mean about apostrophes, too. Way too often misused. (I admit, though, it took me a while to stop referring to the 1960s as the 1960’s. I learned it that way, somehow, but I’ve worked HARD on unlearning it. And I shake my fist at whoever told me that was how it should be! *sticking out tongue and shaking fist, here*

Thanks, Kass. Glad you enjoyed them. And yep. The last one is the only muse hanging out at my house lately. But then, I’ve given him good reason to threaten me. I’m WAY behind! šÆ

These are great! That last one is definitely me.

Glad you enjoyed them, Jeanne! And yep on the last one. *sigh* I’m expecting him to launch an attack on me any day now, since threats haven’t worked so well. š

Glad you enjoyed them, Mae! And I’ve seen the Aragorn one done with several different funny quotes. It always makes me laugh, no matter what it is he’s declaring “is not this day.” š

So glad you enjoyed it, Jessica! And yep, that’s just how I feel, especially about the casting! (I’m still reeling over Tom Cruise casting HIMSELF as 6’5″ Jack Reacher, who has “hands like dinner plates” and is so huge, he intimidates people by just walking in the room. *snort!*) š

These are great, Marcia. Thanks for the smiles. However, I think Apostrophe Man might need to call on some other punctuation assistance. š

He has his friend Comma Man for that stuff. š I understand there’s a whole group of ’em. š

As long as you know how to maintain a pensive yet manly look about you, you can get away with that space-staring stuff for a good while. š No one will EEEEEVER notice. Honest. No, really. Okay, they’ll totally notice, and will likely be thinking, “There he goes again. What the bloomin’ heck is wrong with that guy!” š

Hey, that’s my muse! Ha ha. And I love the meme about the movie. Yes!

I have to say, I agree 100% about the book-to-movie thing. The fact that Hollywood usually can’t even get the casting right, much less do all the rest of that is one of the reasons I no longer bother with movies. If I have spare time, I READ! š And this morning, I found YOUR muse armed and ready in MY library. I’ve been writing ever since, and making good progress, too. I think I’ll keep him for a while! š
Glad you enjoyed them, Diana! ( BTW, I’m well into Sunwielder and loving it. Exactly what I was in the mood for!) š ā¤

Thank you! And enjoy the muse – a tough taskmaster. I’m so glad you’re enjoying Sunwielder. I love time travel and I have a crush on Gryff (as usual). š
LikeLiked by 1 person
Well, how can you NOT have a crush on Gryff? He’s a wonderful character, and I hated the FIRST scene wherein a Do-Over is necessitated! It was a grabber, for sure! Can’t wait to see how it all gets resolved. š
And methinks a tough taskmaster is just what my current situation calls for, else I’ll NEVER get this book finished! I’ll let you have him back after I do. Maybe. š
