A to Z: Letter O



OCTOPUSSY Based on James Bond by Ian Fleming. Screenplay was written by George MacDonald Fraser, Michael G. Wilson, and Richard Maibaum. WIKI: The film's title is taken from a short story in Ian Fleming's 1966 short story collection Octopussy and the Living Daylights, although the film's plot is original. It does, however, include a portion inspired by the Fleming short story "The Property of a Lady" (included in 1967 and later editions of Octopussy and The Living Daylights), while the events of the short story "Octopussy" form a part of the title character's background and are recounted by her.Bond is assigned the task of following a general who is stealing jewels and relics from the Russian government. This leads him to a wealthy Afghan prince, Kamal Khan, and his associate, Octopussy. Bond uncovers a plot to force disarmament in Europe with the use of a nuclear weapon.I've seen just about every James Bond Movie.
Trivia: Who played the James Bond Role after Roger Moore? Bonus: Who recently played James Bond?

Yesterdays Trivia Answer: Bergman & Grant starred in 2 movies. Notorious and Indiscreet.

Meet Fellow Author Jori Mierek who recently had a short story published in Nightmare Illustrated:

Meet Jo, a carefree little girl who can’t do much right in the eyes of her healer mother and older sister.  When her mother calls on a patient and her sister’s busy with chores, Jo steals the opportunity to frolic beside the stream – she never expects to encounter a monster.

“What Spring Brings,” the story of Jo and her monster, is a short story by Jordan Elizabeth Mierek.  You can find it, fully illustrated by artist Emily Holt, in issue 5 of Nightmare Illustrated, a magazine dedicated to horror stories.

Jordan E. Mierek has been published in numerous literary magazines and
anthologies.  Her upcoming novels will be available from Curiosity
Quills, and she is represented by Belcastro Agency.  She writes about
her nightmares in order to live her literary dream.  You can find her

I Wish Jori Much Success!!
