Norse Myths : Idunn and Loki Research Spillover

I need to know about Idunn and Loki for the back story of some minor characters. And of course. Just because. Norse Mythology! Am I right?

Before I go further into what my research turned up, let me get people unfamiliar with their story up to speed. Basically, Loki tricked Idunn into being captured by a Frost giant. The gods were growing old without Idunn’s apples of youth and so made Loki go and rescue her again.

Here’s a link for the full story of the misadventure between these two Norse deities. http://www.hurstwic.org/history/articles/mythology/myths/text/idun.htm


While I’m dishing out links, here’s a link to a cute picture of the Norse pantheon.   https://www.reddit.com/r/heathenry/comments/d4mzqq/drew_my_buddies_left_to_right_tyr_thor_odin_hela/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x

Book Review: Wayward Magic


Hello Friends,

     I've been remiss in posting, but I've worked out a new schedule with writing time and blogging time on it. Hopefully, that will make the needed difference. I'm kicking off my new schedule today with sharing a book review I volunteered to do as part of a blog tour. I hope you all enjoy it.

Hello Again, from the Excuse Corner, Back with New Plans

New horizons.
KC Trae Becker
After a long hiatus (2 years is far too long) from writing this blog to work on my story writings, I'm finally back. No groaning, please. I've been working on both a picture book and a Young Adult Fantasy series.

The picture book is done, except for the last third of the pictures. I've also made good progress on the YA Fantasy series but have rediscovered that learning how to write with a series is a hard way to figure it all out. I keep restarting because I've learned something new about how to make my story better and need to work it in. Now, I feel like I finally have a solid beginning and decent transition into the middle of my first book. But that still leaves a lot of story left.
