Marje @ Kyrosmagica

Hi. Welcome to my blog: M J Mallon - Kyrosmagica Publishing. A blog about magic, books, writing, laughter, and much more! I'm a debut writer in the process of finishing my first YA fantasy novel, set in Cambridge. I write book reviews on Net Galley and Goodreads. I have a penchant for travel and have relatives in far flung places, Australia, Malaysia, and Singapore, (my birthplace.) I grew up in in Bonnie Scotland, in Edinburgh, and now live in Cambridge. I love sunny, hot places, particularly Rome, Venice, Portugal, Barcelona, and I forgot to mention the sun drenched beaches of the Caribbean, how could I? I am lucky to have been blessed with two lovely daughters and a husband who I fondly refer to in this blog as my black sheep. Family joke! With my passion for travel, culture, beautiful beaches, good food, books, theatre, writing, and humour, I hope to keep you entertained. I'm loving every minute of this creative journey, please join me.

Did you see a #mentalhealth guest post on my blog from Cat Davis talking about bi-polar? I've learnt so much about this condition from Cat's personal account, and she chose these four quotes to help to express how she feels. CAT finds writing helps her and I find this both inspiring and hopeful. Please pop over to my blog to read more.

My review of Jan Asher's Thirteen Reason's Why on my blog. A lot of divided opinion on this book due to its emotive topic: suicide. I found it a difficult one to review, spent a lot of time deliberating. Pop over to my blog to see my opinion and thoughts on the book. https://mjmallon.com

We enjoyed our visit to The Sea life Centre in Brighton. Particularly enjoyed seeing the turtles being fed, the seahorses, piranhas, stingrays and sharks! Important message too guys don't throw plastic on our beaches or it could kill our sealife and end up in our food chain.

I wrote this Tanka for @colleen_chesebro weekly poetry challenge after we'd had a few lovely days in Brighton enjoying the seaside at my daughter's graduation from Sussex University. I knew at the time that she was considering her next move, and who knows perhaps that next move might be far away! Exciting times ahead!

My latest post about a furry friend I made called Zog. He was so cute and such a gentleman that I've written a little tanka poem and story about him using the prompt words sugar and spice.

Happy Chinese New Year Gong Xi Fa Cai

Gong Xi Fa Cai – Happy Chinese New Year, it’s the Year of the Sheep, or I think so, some say it is the year of the Goat, or the Ram. Read the article at the bottom of this blog post to find out more. Would you rather be a fluffy Sheep? They’re far cuter I reckon.

I opened a fortune cookie today and this is what it said: You will find fortune on the 8th July. Very specific! Hope it comes true! Maybe I should do the lottery on that day.

Are there any sheep following my blog?

If you had a fortune cookie what did it say?

Do let me know in the comment box below, I’d love to hear your fortunes!

Oh, I love fortune cookies! Sometimes I save the little white messages, but today I can’t remember any. Sorry. 😦

  Oh, that’s ok. I kept mine today which I don’t do usually but since it was so specific I thought I would! Looking forward to seeing what happens on the 8th of July hope it’s a good day. 🙂
