Happy Holidays! Got Ink?

Author: Selena Illyria Posted under: , ,

I wish everyone a Happy Holiday and may your New Year be prosperous and filled with joy and happiness!

Okay, so the Got Ink part of my post. Do you have a tattoo? Would you like to get one?

I already know I want at least three tattoos, one on both my wrists and this cute guy on my back:

Not that exact picture. I'm sure you're wondering why, right? Well, that's the cartoon I watch that makes me feel better if I'm having a crappy day. Plus I love penguins. *Grin*

Moving on, I'd consider getting the Sanskrit symbol for Voice above my Chakra point on the back of my neck:

Being able to speak and voice your opinions and such is very important. For so long I never really expressed myself. This is a reminder to me that I have a voice and I have to use it. My opinions matter, at least to me they do.

And lastly this:

The Kanji for Love (Ai). For those of you who watch Naruto, you know that the character of Gaara has this etched into his forehead. I am a fan of the character but that isn't the reason why I'd get the tattoo. Love is very important. And to love and respect one's self is very important. Depression can really drag love for one's self down and make a person feel unworthy. This reminds me that depression is only aspect of myself and that love is still there inside of me somewhere.I have an idea of where I'd like it be, but I won't be telling. LOL

So what do you think?

If you have any tattoos can you share what they mean to you? And if you want to get one, what would it be?

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Summer Colds and Getting Inked

Author: Selena Illyria Posted under: , ,

I've got a cold. Yeah, I know it's summer, but I still get sick, which sucks. But it's okay. I'm on book 3 of Harry Potter, only three more to go. For a second, I actually thought book 7 was coming out on Monday *shakes fist at bn.com). LOL. Almost threw off my reading schedule.


I'd like to send out a huge shout out to my friend, convo partner in crime and writing partner (I swear I'll send you my part as soon as I can, lol) Celia Kyle for signing a contract with Liquid Silver, watch out for her y'all she'll be big one day. Also Tuesday Morrigan has a new book out from Changeling Press. It's called Fireman Sour, picked up my copy, not sure when I'll get to read it, but I'll make time. Here's the link to check out the book. A quick shout out to Renee George, pleeeaasssseee can I have the yummy cover men (the ones with the purple and pink hair), I swear I'll be nice to them. LOL. Shhh, Eve, I can have them. LOL.


I'm thinking of revamping my My Space page to make it look more like my website. Not sure, I like the sad violin girl on my page. I have to ask my web mistress extraordinaire if she can work some of her magic. *Selena crosses fingers* Okay, the weekend is here and it's almost convo time, hide your children, grab some popcorn and please do throw out some suggestions to us for topics, can't think of everything can we Ce? Oh, before I forget Marianne LaCroix also has a new book out it's called The Gladiator, it looks good, I want to get a copy. I've been fascinated by Gladiators, but haven't had the time or energy to look up info, but I have a story idea for one (Paranormal/ Sci fi). I have faaaarrrr too many ideas. LOL. Hey Samara, when does Bayou Heat come out? (Selena is so impatient for that book)


Now onto getting inked. I have an idea for a tattoo, it will go on my upper back. I know what I want to get, problem is I need some help. I'd like to get a Japanese War Fan. I want it open, with flames at the bottom, lotus blossoms, full moon in the middle and some Japanese Writing on it. I suck at drawing, lol. I used to be okay, I loved art class, *sigh*, it's been too long. I don't go into this lightly, I've thought about it, a lot. I know where (tattoo place) I want to get it at, (Shar knows) hehe. Problem is time, I'm detail oriented. I'd like to have it drawn out whether by me or someone else, but I want to make sure it looks the way I want it too, before I get it done.
Anyway, I'm supposed to be writing, but I'm procrastinating. I had an idea for a character (Rolf from Passionate Blackmail), only problem, I don't speak German, damn. May not make him German, but I know he's European. Why do characters have to be so damn complicated. Ugh, I want to smack him and tell him pick a damn place of origin, but then the men in the white coats would come get me. I hope they're hot. LOL. But I can't smack him, he's not real. Oh, before I go, what do you guys think of my Meez character? She's meditating right now. My friend says she looks like me. LOL. God, I hope not, otherwise I didn't know my head was that BIG! LOL.

P.S. Why do I make friends that can get me into trouble? (Pam, I'm talking to you, um, both of you. LOL). Don't forget about the contest going on. I know I keep pushing back the date, but it all works out cause the winners get more stuff. Whoo hoo, to more prizes. Hugs all around.
