Research The Facts Of History - In Historical Novels and Historical Films

FIRST - HORSES NEED OUR HELP NOW!

A very urgent matter needs your attention - Please visit MerHorses now and continue to the Humane Society page where you can send an email to save Horses!

Most of our historical fiction is just that - fiction.

Even on The History Channel, so much so-called history is factually inaccurate, that I suggest that everyone do what I do - research the subjects and find out the real truth. It makes these histories more enjoyable and we should all teach kids to research facts.

It will make them learn to think and not to just take what they hear and see without a grain of salt.

The old adage to believe half of what you see and none of what you hear is a good byword for life - especially in historical movies !

For instance, in the film, "The Other Boleyn Girl", they made what were really two girls put forth as concubines by their family, as was common in those days, into rivals, bitches, and they reversed many facts about them.

Here are some facts:

Facts on The Boleyn Girls:

MARY WAS OLDER THAN ANNE BOLEYN

MARY DIED BEFORE ANNE

LITTLE ELIZABETH WAS RAISED AT COURT

So, while we can admire the way writers take the truth and twist it into their own tales, let's all learn the truth by researching the facts in everything. 

Ocean Blog

I'm a music artist who loves to endorse healthy, eco magazines like this one where I'm on the cover:

I'm also delighted to be instrumental in showing people how to get healthy by going vegan!

An interview with Ocean is featured on Famousveggie.com in their Celeb Interviews section, and here is a link - Ocean on FamousVeggie

I love to contribute my talents in order to help - I think it's the essence of happiness, and I adore being healthy, being vegan, and being compassionate.

I'm posting here since I already have a quasi-political blog I was asked to keep at Ecoize.com, named Ocean's Ocean, and I also do the Mermaid Blog, which is a fantasy tale ( and connected to an epic trilogy I have written called The Mers ), and this one is various musings, ideas, moods, and so on, so it's fun !

I like to think of ideas to help people, as I do on sites where I contribute articles on everything from living eco to helping animals (including us), vegan recipes, my own travel adventures, on being a musician, being a fan of classic films, being in love with history, into anthropology and other cultures, art, design, illustration, stories, and writing, among many other interests.

How do I find the time to follow so many interests, I ask myself. And I know that only because I'm vegan do I have such energy!

I don't do just one thing ever - for instance, I have two books I'm writing now at the same time! 

Also I am doing a series of paintings on a certain theme for a show.

And, of course, I do my music very often - meaning I produce tunes I write, and/or sing somewhere.

I have a real interest in making life better for everyone (of all species),  and every place, than it would have been if I had not been born.

Sites I Love

Among the slideshow pix below are some logos I've created for sites I love and endorse, and some I contribute to, like Ecoize.com and Veganize.com.

MermaidBlog.com is where an actual Mer transmits information to me, and I obligingly relate it to the world.

Joining TheMermaid.Net will allow you to join with me and other Merophiles in getting updates on oceanic and Mer things. The Mers? Well, naturally, they're the type of fish who live in the waters of our world, and whose physical resemblance and size - but for their tails, that is - remind us of ourselves, and with whom we have the shared idea to save our Planet, Sea!

Ocean

I'm a singer and a songwriter. I also produce, write, and create artwork.

A vegan, I'm into love for all beings, and I volunteer to help rescue wildlife, as well as rescue domestic animals, aside from us humans, since we're domesticated, although we don't like to think of ourselves as tame.

We're more than corraled, branded, and owned, actually.

That's why we all adore images of wild horses, adopt logos and other emblems signifying freedom and primeval states, etc.

I'm under no delusions about it.

My name was given to me at birth, and I know I don't have much in common with the body of water, except that I love to surf/swim/be near it, etc.!

Speaking of wild horses, and tame ones:

Ecoize

I love to write thrillers, and I adore scary movies. I write what I like, and I'm very into twisted plots and weird characters.

I also write books on vegan food, health, spirituality, and on other subjects, like on historical figures I like to explore.

When I'm doing music all the times, it's great to switch to artwork or to writing - I always have the means to write with me, as well as to do music - that is, nearby - an usually a little recorder helps too - but the main thing I adore doing is helping, and I like to help someone every day - whether it's walking the beach to throw shells that have little critters inside back into the sea that have become stranded, or by posting on websites where people are looking for some sort of information I can provide, it feels great to help!
