Inklings // February 2021

I'm still working through reading the period drama party posts, but obviously wanted to get this up asap. I'm so excited about all the great entries we got last month!

Rules:

1. At any time during the month, on your own blog post a scene from a book or film that matches the prompt, including a link back here in your post.

2. Leave a link to your post in the comments section on this post and I'll post all your links with the next prompt. That's it!

January Round-Up:

February's prompt is:

A snow scene in book or film

Ok, so.... I was debating between two different options for my entry: the first being a certain delicious snowy day book description, but that particular idea also ties in beautifully with the new year, so I think I'll wait on that till next January (I know, that means waiting awhile :p), which brings us to my other top option -- also tying in with the whole period drama thing you'll notice --

and... you all know what's coming right? 

Because around here all that preamble is pretty much gonna mean one thing,

I mean...

OBVIOUSLY. xD

And then the scene immediately following:

 
(from the '04 N&S)

Apart from the top part being romantic of course, you feel like you're actually there. Feeling the softness of all those flying white flakes. And cold in the blowing wind.

(To clarify, the period drama thing isn't mandatory. Feel free to pick whatever snowy scene you like! ;)) Looking forward to seeing what you all come up with and have fun!

  1. That's it, I've GOT to see this. I've been a little tentative because I love the book so much, but I've made up my mind now. I want to see this version of North and South!

    I had just been wondering when you would post this for this month, so I was glad to see it and got mine up as soon as possible. Here it is:

    1. MovieCritic,
      Yay!!!! I love it so much that I'm kinda nervous lest it disappoint somehow, but I don't see how it possibly could. It's just so GOOD. So yes please please pleeeease watch it soon so we can rhapsodize about it together!! <3 (sorry, I know that might not be possible so I shall politely contain my excitement. ;D)

      You might've already followed the link, but I reviewed it a number of years ago and everything I said there still holds true. I know I mentioned 'spoilers' at one point but since you're familiar with the story it wouldn't be anything major and reading it might prepare you for any adjustments etc. (Maybe you could kinda read it cautiously with one eye screwed shut or something? xD) Here's the link:

  5. Here is mine: http://rosepetalsandfaeriedust.com/blog/2021/02/inklings-february-2021-a-snow-scene-warrior-scarlet/. If you haven't read the book, go read the book first! It packs the greatest punch unspoiled.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and look forward to further confabulation. Please just be courteous to one and all. Oh, and I love thoughts on old posts, so comment away!

(Also of late -- what with time being finite, and Life Happening + managing multiple blogs and computer issues and all that -- I sometimes have to alternate between creating new content and replying to comments, but rest assured I'm thrilled to hear from each and every one of you and always hope to reply thoughtfully in full ASAP. <3)
