✍️ A Writer in 2025: Wherever Inspiration Lands As a writer in 2025—with the internet, Bluetooth, and a stubborn determination to keep creating—I write in bits and pieces. I write here, there and anywhere the words decide to show up. Some days it’s at home on my couch, with Inka curled loyally at my side…
Then and Now Every now and then in my SCA wanderings, I look back at old notes, posts, or lists and rediscover bits of Calontir history I’d completely forgotten I knew. Recently, while rummaging around in my 2019 memory-box, I came across a reference I’d made to a blog called Stars and Garters, which I…
Sometimes the best stories are the ones you don’t want to live through. Recently An Itinerant Scribe decided to go on an unexpected adventure—straight into the void. It started when I tried changing my WordPress theme. I thought it would be simple. I wanted to try a new look something clean and easy. Then I…
In this I reflect on the unexpected journey of writing a blog post about plants at Oakview Mall. After questioning the sources of the photos, I updated the website for clarity, adding photo credits. I appreciate the learning process of blogging, balancing fun and responsibility while exploring various interests.
Hello, dear readers! As the year draws to a close, I find myself reflecting on the journey of An Itinerant Scribe. It’s been an incredible year of growth, creativity, and—most importantly—connection with all of you. I can’t resist sharing a little milestone with you today: in 2023, this humble blog had 265 visitors. Not too…
Hey there, my wonderful readers! Can you believe it? “An Itinerant Scribe” has been weaving stories and sharing thoughts since 2019, and wow, what a journey it’s been! But hold onto your coifs, hats, and helms, because 2023 has absolutely knocked it out of the park compared to any year before. Last year, we thought…
Calontir’s bloggers are a busy bunch presenting you research, opinions, projects, reenactment tales and history. They also come and go over time. Here are the ones I’ve found
Hello again, Ian the Green. I want to welcome you back with joy to the world of active blogging and ScribeScribbling. Your year-long absence of inspiring posts was noticed. The two years you worked on a Master of Science degree is important both for you and yours. But without realizing it, your degree will benefit your interest…
Hello and Greetings You may have wondered if my links to products provide me income. The short answer is “no”. I include links to products for your convenience. One source you may use to find more about it or to buy it. At the time you read my post they may not even be the…
Blog photos are a special consideration. Because my blog is mine (not official SCA) my photos do not have model or photo use consents. If you officially serve the Society for Creative Anachronism any “people” photos or videos must have written consent. If I’m not posting medieval art, I include my scanned art or use my cell-phone…
Your SCA experiences, the history you learn, and the items you re-create are what the Society for Creative Anachronism is all about. If you are like me and want to share these with others you might want to blog about it, too. Since I enjoyed writing class handouts and competition documentation I thought blogging would be easy….
Earlier I wrote about Calontir blogs. I have an addition I missed. I don’t know how because it’s been around since October 2006. It is M. Eleanor Deyeson’s Workshop. A well organized, often updated, well researched, SCA relevant blog. Be sure you check it out. Related Prior Post: 4 Calontir Blogs That Will Inspire You
I’m at my local mall doing my lunch and 2ish mile walk. I’m also test-driving this Blogger app. Taking a photo and writing a brief post away from home. See how it handles bumps and speed. Snapping unsuspecting models’ pictures is a sneaky fun. People seldom survey their surroundings and never think to look up…
