This morning I woke up to a short, yet surprisingly intense trembling of the earth. It might have been just an earthquake, but for Chéri and I, it was a shockwave announcing a tragedy. Chéri was getting ready to work, and I still lay in bed, contemplating the day off in front of me. My mother asks…… Continue reading Shockwave…
And I am blaming my dear blogger friend Brutus for it. I first tried the NYC Midnight 250-word challenge, last year… And I failed. Then I tried the longest version, and also failed to make it to round two. And here I am, trying once more. This time, it is a 100-word piece of fiction,…… Continue reading Another challenge…
Last weekend, I threw a last minute Meet & Greet Party. First and foremost, I’d like to thank all the lovely people that stopped by and made the party a success! It was a lot of fun, and though I hadn’t forgotten, it reminded me of something important. Blogging isn’t just about publishing content. If you…… Continue reading Between Bloggers – All for one!
And for anybody who might need it… After all, we’re like a big family here, and it is always a pleasure to help, when I can. So recently, my very charming friend, Rob from Friends without borders asked me how to access the ”Classic” editing mode, to create new posts. I promised to send him a…… Continue reading Between bloggers – This one’s for Rob…
I was invited (well, not personally, but still…) to join the Fandango’s Friday Flashback! Fandango scrolls back, every Friday, and gives a second chance to a post he had published on the same date, years before. I thought it was a great way to remember some of the stuff I did a while back, and I…… Continue reading Need ideas? How about… (March 26th FFF)
If you live in the great Montreal area, please check this out! I wish I had heard about Miracle Montreal earlier… But I just caught it on the news this morning, and I hope I’ll get at least one other person to join in! Miracle Montreal is an organization that gathers non perishable goods to…… Continue reading Miracle Montreal…
This will be short… As you might know already, I am preparing a story for my NYC Midnight Short Story Challenge. If you didn’t know, you can catch up here. Good news, I finally managed to start writing, and I am about halfway through. I am a bit rusted, and I’d like to know if…… Continue reading Anyone interested?
Or probably more like five or ten minutes… But you know, not that long, I promise! I wrote my story for The NYC Midnight 250 Word Microfiction Challenge, and I know my English is far from perfect. I tried to run it into an online corrector, but the fact is that I don’t trust The…… Continue reading Do you have a minute?
Happy Wednesday, Lovelies! It’s been a while, I know… But better late than never, right? For those of you who wouldn’t have known The Cove for a while, my ”Nombril de semaine” posts are dedicated to sharing links so you can discover new bloggers that you might not know about. Just over two weeks…… Continue reading Nombril de semaine…
I have a feeling Mother Nature has decided to slow-cook Montréal. This is our fourth 2020 heat wave. (I don’t care if they say it’s only 26 degrees Celscius outside today, when it offically feels like 37C, it counts!!) I won’t complain (much). It is a beautiful summer, with lots of sunshine, and my…… Continue reading Too hot.
