So for the last month I have been posting a poem at least daily. That was due to the fact that during November and April I tend to do the poem a day writing challenge. When I first started to do the challenges I struggled with the daily writing. I don’t struggle as much anymore. I am going to have to think about how to do the challenge in April to be a actual challenge.
However, that being said I want to point out that the poetry I posted was not the only poetry out there. Poetry is an enjoyable all of the time. And there is an incredible amount of poets out there. All social media sites have hashtags. Look for #poetryisnotdead or #poetrylovers. You won’t regret it.
Okay so I am going to do a Poem today…but between the book release and dealing with the minutiae of last minute details for that…and the physical replacement of my porch I do not know if I will get it up here. I meant to have it done by now…but as the title suggests. I am running behind on what I needed to do. So I thought instead I would let you know I have been uploading (And trying to get organized) my poetry images on Pinterest. It is a work still in progress as there are limits to keep spam down on the site. So enjoy!
Btw the prompt today was to write a funny poem…I am struggling. my humor is often dark and off color…
The prompt today did not inspire ( it was to write a future poem)… however I was stuck in a loop dream last night. So I used that. Pad challenge prompts are not a binding contract of you must write about this… they are just ideas that are to inspire the creative process. I post one myself to the Fae Corps Publishing Blog every day in November and in April. I personally use the Writer’s Digest version- see my previous Pad day posts for that link. Or I search Tumblr for poetry prompts. Inspiration is always out there if you are willing to look for it.
Today’s Prompt was a fill in the blank. “In the (Blank)”. Those that are my facebook friends have seen me trying to do to-do lists the last few days. They are never long…usually four or five items…but it wears me out. So I am fighting exhaustion and trying to celebrate my wins.
The laundry is caught up.
Dishes are nearly there.
Bathrooms are clean. (Well the two that I can get to)
The laundry room is clean.
All the clothes are folded…not put away yet, but folded.
My bedroom is halfway there.
Joe’s room is clean.
I have finished Layout on all but one of the Kid’s books for kid’s week(The final one is waiting on the illustrator. He had a cord malfunction and couldn’t send in the art yet. Poor guy)
I have started getting preorders set up for the kid’s week books. *Links will be in a post on the Fae Corps blog when I finish the getting of the preorder links….
I have written a poem a day for everyday in November so far and got a little bit of a word count in Sea Wytch.
I did my grocery shopping for November. And came in under budget.
I have started my christmas shopping.
I made it to therapy.
I have remembered my medicine over half of the time…(I set another set of reminders on my phone…seriously the only reason I remember to eat half of the time is the dizzy feeling I get when I forget.)
I have stayed Hydrated…
See I am killing this…even if there are days when my body says I am killing me. I created a to-do list for self care. So far it has morning and night meds, and art…(Therapist said art was self care!)
What did you do today? Let us celebrate the win together.

Deep thoughts end me up in a random place. I have always had a passion for poetry…Writing it, reading it, studying it. I just really love poetry. I generally don’t like following the rules of poetry because I feel like that makes it harder to express what I want to say…but I still know many of them. I can tell you the rules off of the top of my head for several differing forms. I think that is why I feel most at home on Tumblr of all of the social media…it feels like poetry.
I found this on tumblr earlier…
It feels like truth…I end up shitposting on Facebook, I don’t really do much with Insta or Deviant…though I wish I could. I just end up feeling awkward. My anxiety eats at my posting on Tiktok. Discord I use for Fae Corps…We try to be open but most don’t even know how to use discord much less see it as a viable social platform.
I find it so hard to share my passions for poetry…because it ends up being such a niche passion. So few actually like it. I feel like it is because it was explained poorly in high school and no one takes the time to learn about it past that.. so many see poetry as only for love…Poetry is pure emotion…it is the heart of the poet spilled onto the page…Many people don’t process emotion well.
I think I want to post a different poem by a different poet everyday in November…as well as trying to post my own PAD challenge Results.(Poem A Day)..However it means that I am likely not going to do my normal posts during November. I decided not to have Serena do NaNoWrimo this year as I am incredibly busy. I am prepping Fae Corps’s Children’s books…and doing the PAD Challenge. I also have day to day life.
The other Poets I can Schedule ahead, and that will help. I really want to have you all see some of the amazing poems I have read.

So…when I am scheduling the blog for the week I often use the duplicate blog option to get the right settings for each. I ended up deleting last week’s Thursday post. It was the one about my new drawing tablet. I didn’t delete it on purpose. Technical difficulties y’all.
