I'm doing much reading up - both legit. and non-legit.! I did actually do some work last night, which took a lot longer than I thought it would, but hey, at least I've made a start. However, I resent that academia is taking me away from the one bloody plot idea I've had in four years! I hate not being able to work on it whenever I want because of work. At school, which is the last time, and place, I did any considerable amount of writing, it was easy to just ignore the rest of the world and write. Infact, I think I needed to be tryong to overcome a distraction at the time, I did my best stuff in boring English lessons or trying to escape the oppressive atmosphere of the Common Room, or just trying to summon up R. from my memory, when he refused to appear in real life.
Anyway, I've started my Roman Religion reading, and I've just printed off some stuff about the symbolism of the seasons and the elements from Symbolism.org. So much fun reading ahead! I'm even doing my research like a proper writer! I was thinking of Cassie ( velvetandlace) when I was searching though. When she told us all about Beltane it caught my interest - wondering about it's symbolism and meanings and what they're rooted in. So I also printed off some info about Pagan (and I think 'pagan' here covers a wide wide group, not just Wiccans) festivals and their basic symbolism from CircleSanctuary.org. I don't know if it's especially accurate, but I've got to start somewhere and it's Sunday and the shops are shut! (That's the great thing about the net - it's open all hours!)
