#57 - Wings
I am going to begin by wishing Laini an enormous CONGRATULATIONS on the publication of her book!!! (We can't get it yet but she has it in her talented little hands and has shared a few pages with us on her blog.) Well done, Laini!!!
In honour (or honor if you are in the USA!) of this wonderful book appearing in the world, this week's prompt is: wings.
Whether the wings are airplane, bird, butterfly, or angelic, real, fantastical, metaphoric, or concrete, tell us where you go with them. Do you think of dragonflies or model airplanes? Are you waiting for pigs to fly? Do you remember waterwings, faeries, eagles, or bumblebees that technically shouldn't be able to fly but do anyway? Where does this prompt take you?
(All are welcome. Please write a new post based on the prompt and give us a link to that specific post. See the majority of comments from the last post as an example.)
UPDATE: We've had a few questions about the new website, so here's an update! We are still working on it but it turns out that the automatic linking system of our dreams is a bit more complicated than we first thought. We are in the process of looking for someone who can make what we want without it costing a fortune so if you have any recommendations, please let us know!)

Here is my offering for the Wings prompt.
http://image-verse.com/observing-a-gull
This piece recounts a very profound experience of mine. I found myself on a sunny afternoon, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, suddenly quite caught up in the essence of flying. It was eerie and wonderful.
--and so it goes--

And congratulations to Laini !

Here is my offering for Sunday. It was actually written a few days ago for another prompt but it fits perfectly with 'wings'. Critiques more than welcome.
Beaman
This one's dear to my heart.

Thunder and rain and more flooding here today in the Delaware Valley... wings could be just the thing!
WOW Laini! Congrats to you! Can't wait to check out your book. You must be walking on wings! :)

I won't have a post for the wings prompt because I am taking off on a little trip to see a friend who will be flying away from France to the USA...possibly forever. But congratulations on Laini's book!
four-chambered heart
& congrats laini!
I'm not much of a writer but I was compelled to share my story:

Congrats, Laini!

Mine is up. This one seemed to come much easier for me. I just exploited my fear of heights.
This is my first attempt. I've been reading your blog for a while now, and finally decided to get my feet wet...
http://ithinkinblue.blogspot.com/2007/04/wings.html
None of the above, actually, although I am, in fact, waiting for porcine aviation in some venues of my life.
http://thefirecat.blogspot.com/2007/04/thing-with-feathers.html
Also, here's last week's, which made it as far as the comments section. Shame on me for being tardy and taking up more than my fair share of attention!
http://thefirecat.blogspot.com/2007/04/uprooted.html
LAINI! HAPPY BOOK!!!!!

BTW, congratulattions Laini!
I have submitted a blog to this week's prompt. It is at http://myrtlebeachramblings.blogspot.com/
I do not edit or rewrite and seldom use spellcheck, so deal with it. LOL
Happy Friday! This week's prompt reminded me once again of a beautiful and inspiring Bible verse.
Woohoo! I'm early again. Here's mine.
http://writinganamcara.blogspot.com/2007/04/sunday-scribblings-57-wings.html
This was a fun one
http://katyacapers.blogspot.com/2007/04/sunday-scribbling-wings.html
oppss.. just to let you know...guatami's link goes back to here...
This is an apology.
Last week was my first offering to Sunday Scribblings.
I thought the links were placed at midnight, Saturday night. My poem, "Observing a Gull" wasn't finished when I sent in the link Thursday.
I was still editing this evening in WordPress when I noticed someone visited, at which time I discovered the links had been placed.
As I enter this comment, I've just wrapped the final edit of my poem. I'm sorry I didn't understand the actual release time for viewing.
I apologize to anyone who saw the unfinished piece, and invite you back to view the finished work.
--and so it goes--
...Rob

Congratulations Liani! :)
And here's my scribble for this week:
http://candiedclouds.blogspot.com/2007/04/wings.html
Oh! I was wondering, you ladies had planned to move this blog away from blogger and have an automatic way of posting comments' link into the post, correct? Any updates on that? I'm just curious to know how it may work, and would also ease out some work from your side :)
Btw, you women are doing a great job at giving us the continued inspiration! Thanks!
My tribute to Laini and her 'wings'. Congratulations and thank you!

Here's mine on WINGS......
http://bohemiansinglemom.blogspot.com/2007/04/make-your-own-kfc-sign-at.html
I enjoyed this! Here is mine for wings...
http://creativespiritfaery.typepad.com/writers_treehouse/
So many ideas went through my mind, but I chose to write about this one:
http://havingwrit.blogspot.com/2007/04/wings-in-park.html
I really hope that you will enjoy and take something for you away from this post . . . it is amazing to me how the prompts seem to dovetail with the events of my life. I believe that it is serendipity in action.
http://www.jhsiess.com/2007/04/sunday-scribblings-57-wings-and-blog.html
Well, I hope that the essence of good writing is to be able to take something like this and make it personal because that is what I did.

Okay, I know this is very late! But today is a public holiday in France (can that count as a Sunday Scribbling?) and I was away for the weekend, which inspired this post:
http://and-so-forth.blogspot.com/2007/05/sunday-scribblings-serendipity.html
Hi.
I posted before midnight last Sunday ---I thought it was about 11:20 PM EDT. The note on the post says 9:12 PM. But always before if I posted before midnight on Sunday it got posted for the week and if not I knew I was taking my chances on being too late.
Is there a specific time you would really like us to have posted to be included in the list????
Thanks.
I will try to do better.

Laini, I need to contact you or Meg about the program you need to do the automatic linking. But there are no contact details on your profile. I think they have disappeared from all the profiles when blogger upgraded. I'm sure mine was on my profile page, and when I checked, it wasn't. So I've gone in and ticked the box again - so, if you don't get an e-mail from my husband, could you go to my profile page and e-mail me? Thanks. He seems to think he might be able to do it.
Last one-done all the prompts.
