Okay…I normally don’t do this, but I was sorting through the old stuff on Canva…cleaning up things. And I found two I don’t remember posting. So…today is throwback poetry. (Not sure the volumes these are in.)

Monday poetry
Two from me. I don’t know if I will be posting the results from the Pad Challenge On time, but I will try. I do know that Wednesday & Thursday there will not be my normal posts. I am going to try to do Tuesday though. Recovery is making things go slower.
Monday poetry
Two from Serena.
If it’s not one thing…
So, Jenny Elliott and I were talking about marketing stuff and she said that another author had complimented our tactics. Said the only thing that could be made better was the price. I love even numbers and have been doing everything at an even price. Apparently that is a bit of a bad thing.
So I went back and fixed the ebook price by a penny… for everything. And in doing it…Word Play got “republished” on draft2digital. Which means that they decided to review it. And it was written back in the all Amazon days. So I have to go back and fix it. The manuscript has several mentions in it of Amazon. Which causes d2d fits. It means I have to get it done before I can get that one available for Kobo and Apple books. Grrrr. Yeah I will get it done, but I’m annoyed because I thought I was done with it.
I’m also annoyed because I am fairly certain that I created the problem myself. And adding to my own workload is just assine.
Monday poetry
Two from Fighting Ignorance.
Monday poetry
One from Occult Madness and one from Uncanny Valley.
Vacation plans and trying to make it stick
So I do a daily goal.
This weekend I was easily able to make that goal and then some.
My daily goal? 250 word count and a poem. It doesn’t sound like a lot… but I don’t often make it. Between the publication process and life being what it is… I stay busy.
I had no Internet and no computer and no access to the phone where I have been. So I was just able to draw and write.
I got a new kids book written, several poems, and Serena got quite a bit of her new story for the spring fae corps Anthology done. (It’s about half way written now). I was only gone for a weekend.
Maybe I need to plan on writing retreats. Serena needs to start putting some work in on her books. Next year this is an option for me.
But being out of contact is anxiety inducing for me. This is a wonderful thing for my writing but it is not a good thing for me personally. It is something I will have to think about.
Monday poetry
Two from the new volume…
My next volume
It was a tie in the votes… this one and Burning the Candles at both ends.
I asked my boyfriend to choose… and his response gave me what I needed to choose.
He said that Burning is a darker one and this one was lighter. So I should choose based on the poems that I was planning on putting in it.
That is not how I write…
But it got me thinking about my own writing and the upcoming volume. Ok, I have Serena’s Gathered Bones that I can put the dark stuff in. And I am planning on using this one for the November Pad challenge as well as the stuff I write until then…. I am likely to be looking for a new one at the end of November….
So I chose the one that I liked better (and the one that my daughter had voted for) since the votes were equal for the two.
Today I wrote the last poem for Echoes…
So I will be starting Uncanny Valley soon…
Wild Wednesday
Well it’s time for this again…
Help me choose what my new volume will be? I have less than 10 poems in Echoes left to write. Each of these are supposed to be Free Verse with no theme….
The writing on this new one will probably be done in November but the volume itself will not be ready for release until next year.
