Happy Fandescript Friday! To add along, Happy Friday the 13th! This is one of my favorite days as I like the number 13. The many superstitions and myths that are tied to the number as well as other things associated with it, make for a great addition as to why I enjoy this day. As a writer, I am fascinated by subjects that are tied to mystery, the strange, and the odd things in life. To have a love or a liking for the number 13 is known as "triskaidekaphilia."

As this number has been affiliated with bad luck and omens, there are some rather interesting things that can be learned about this number and its role in history throughout the ages.

One of my favorite writers is Edgar Allen Poe as I enjoy his writing style. His wordplay and story-telling style I find to be very inspiring and imaginative as it evokes many things in readers and writers alike. I take this time to share with you some facts about one of literature's greatest writers and one of my many references. Enjoy. |
