Well, the next set of videos was what I could find ... I know I have seen some other compilations of work but could not find them or just did not have the right search string in place to get what I was looking for ... Hope you find these ones interesting:




So -- what do you do with an
Ostrich Egg?



And ...


AND How Can I forget to include ...?

Call to Action

There are 5 things you can do to earn a free gift (probably a selection of Color-Your-Own SuseDoodle postcards from a forthcoming collection to be released soon! WOO HOO!)  All five  Call to Action options can be found here -- two can be  answered in the Comments Section here or via the InLinkz section at the end of the post ... I wanted to set the closing date as May 7 but InLinkz would not let  me run a link list for that long ... so the deadline is May 1 ...

Five-Minute Fiction -->  I don't remember whether the old meme "Fiction Friday" involved writing for 5  or 10 minutes.  However, there was a sort of rule -- using their prompt, write for 5 (or 10) minutes minimum and do no editing (I did try to spell-check at least, though) ... then return and share the link to your blog post using the Mr Linky they provided.  For 5-Minute Fiction, basically the same "rule" applies except I ask you to keep it G or PG rated, try to use at least 3 words from the list, drop your link for your writing in the Link Share at my post for 5-Minute Fiction and please include a link back to the SuseADoodleDo post for that letter (at your post).

500-word Flash Fiction -->  Similar to the above, editing allowed, but there is a 500-word limit to your piece of writing.  Again, I ask you to keep it G or PG rated, try to use at least 3 words from the list, drop your link for your writing in the Link Share at my post for 500-word Flash Fiction and please include a link back to the SuseADoodleDo post for that letter (at your post).

Artsy Interpretation  --> Create a doodle or illustration using words from the list, post it at your blog or Flickr (NO Instagram as I do not have an account there and cannot get one since I cannot join Instagram from my laptop), add a link to my blog's post for the letter at your post and come back to drop your link in the Link Share at my post for Artsy Interpretation.

  1. Wow, those egg carvings are amazing as are the origami, and that ostrich chasing the bicyclists is both funny and terrifying! I've been chased by dogs while bike riding, but an ostrich is so much bigger. I wonder what that bird would have done if it had caught up?

    1. Thanks for visiting, Tamara! There is a longer video on YouTube of the Ostrich and the bikers -- eventually, it passed them and then waited for them to pass it than a bit later, it just stopped ... I liked this shorter video because it included info about the bird too. I think it was just having fun -- believe it or not ...
