Pad challenge Day 7

Prompt: Big or Small

I struggled with this prompt. It was a Two for Tuesday and I am probably going to be doing another poem. I have been doing another pad challenge as well but the prompt for this one just irritated my sensibilities.

Pad challenge Day 6

Prompt: Better (Blank)

Pad challenge Day 5

Prompt: Book Based

I know that I said I was delayed. Migraine is not gone, but my daughter made me eat and I drank some water and took the medicine…. and I am somewhat functional. Not 100% but I am a little bit more able to do what I need to do.

Pad challenge Day one

Prompt: Declaration

I have been thinking about how I want to do the poems for the pad challenge on the blog. I always do my poetry for the blog on lovely images to make it look nice… but I feel like I need to do it differently for the daily poem. So I decided to go with a screenshot (I included the keyboard this morning. I don’t know if it will be in all of them) that way I can do the pretty image for Monday poetry and it will be a good thing still.

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…

Busy busy blogger

So… the next couple of months are busy ones.

I am going to be doing the sketchtember, drawtober, and November pad challenges. That means that you will be seeing a daily post on here for the next few months. (I have already done a few of the drawings for sketchy tembers to make sure I can keep up. Especially since I am going to be doing the half marathon for the poetry marathon.)

With all of the other things I have going on… I am keeping the drawings posts simple. I will post the art and the prompt I used.

Wild Wednesday

I posted recently about evolution of poetry volumes.

I started Echoes into the void Yesterday(For me this is Sunday.)

And already the inspiration has been leaning towards a singular topic. That does not mean it will be the end theme…but that is often how it starts. I am amused by this.

And in Announcements – I have been approved to do the Poetry Marathon Half Marathon! I did it before in 2017. It is 12 poems in 12 hours. One an hour based on prompts given. I usually enjoy this sort of writing challenge. I will be posting the poems here as well. It is in September. (I have to look up the exact date again…So I will clarify more information closer to.)
