The holidays the chance to spend with family and friends to be sure. But when you work as a freelancer at this time of year it's hard to think about work and I proved it for I am way behind in my reading and writing. Even though I have been jotting down writing ideas from time to time and sharing a few of my Christmas colorings I have been lax in my daily work. This may sound like a New Year's resolution, but it isn't for I do not make these things anymore and haven't for years but here goes I am going to start catching up on my reading and writing and my color art starting in a few days right after January 1.
About the Creator
Mark Graham
I am a person who really likes to read and write and to share what I learned with all my education. My page will mainly be book reviews and critiques of old and new books that I have read and will read. There will also be other bits, too.

More Christmas Art
Here is another from Valentin Ramon's Christmas movie coloring book. Again, I mainly used colored pencils. In using greens and yellows and black I am pretty sure you know which movie and cartoon this one pertains to. I bet you even know by heart when the Grinch even says this line in the movie, cartoon and even maybe what page of the Dr. Suess picture book this is written. It is a Christmas favorite for all, and some may even go a bit far in the like or even dislike of this particular live action or cartoon movie for all.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Mistakes in Stranger Things - Season 5
Stranger Things 5: A Train Wreck of Lazy Writing and Brand Blunders When Stranger Things first dropped in 2016, it was a masterpiece of atmosphere and tight storytelling. It felt like a love letter to the 80s. Fast forward to Season 5, and that love letter has been shredded. What we got instead was a bloated, nonsensical mess that felt like the creators were just checking boxes to get it over with. It wasn't just a disappointment; it was a total collapse of the logic and stakes that made us care about Hawkins in the first place.

Fair Exchange, No Robberies
Dark Memoirs - Index There are at least two kinds of people in the world: those who write this half-arsed kind of intro to a story that looks to separate the rare and the norm, and those who realise it's an overused framing device and don't.
