Sometimes, a Lady’s Just Gotta Get Naked

This is a Naked Lady, aka Amaryllis. She grows, she changes, until she becomes what she is meant to be. She is vulnerable to her environment, but she is strong in joy over being what she is meant to be. She is naked. But she has no fear.
Thought of the Day:

To get what you want, you’re going to have to change.
 

 

 

 

You can’t keep doing just what you’re doing and expect to achieve a final destination that’s not at the end of your current path. You know what your current path is and what it leads to. You know it leads to something other than what you want.

So, to get what you want, you’re going to have to change.

It might be a tiny change, something so small that you are the only one who notices. It might be so small that even you don’t see its ripple effects until years and years later.

Or it might be a change so obvious and so radical, it makes your inner circle sit up and pay attention.

It might even be so ginormous a change that your inner circle turns on you for being different. It might be so great a change that they cast you out of their hearts.

Either way, to get what you want, you are going to have to change.

You just have to decide how badly you want it.

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone. Go do something fantastic. : )

Front cover of a novel. Title and author's name in white font with serifs, all CAPS. Title: The Priestess Murders. Author: Courtney Cantrell. The image depicts a gnarled tree reaching from the bottom left corner up the left side and across the top half of the image. The tree is silhouetted against a star-spangled, dark blue night sky. In the background (lower third of image) are leafy, densely growing trees dimly lit by what might be moonlight (light source not shown). In the center of the image is a honeybee viewed from above. The bee glows a pale gold and is surrounded by a nimbus if pale gold light. The bee also exudes rays of pale gold light reaching up and down and left and right. A gash is torn in the bee's thorax, and red blood trickles from the wound. Novel published October 2025.
