Blog attempt 1. |
The first few entries come from a private journal I have kept for a few years now. also home for my entries for ![]()
|
I wrote a poem about peace. It was for the we want peace contest. I like it but don't know if it is a winning poem. Then again I never feel like any of my entries are worthy of winning. I have another short story I am working on for the lodestar contest, and I think I might do the Adam West conspiracy contest for the contest challenge. Those will work for the Bradbury challenge and contest. I have a lot I want to get done this week. |
I'm going to write from a prompt i was emailed today. Prompt: What makes me powerful? Write about this in your Blog entry today. Words make me powerful. Words can uplift and inspire. Words can cause pain, depression, or death. Words paint pictures of things never seen and they dig up memories you didn't remember. When you write you are wielding words, like weapons, like surgical tools. The pen is only as powerful as the words that flow out of it. It isn't the pen that is mightier than the sword. It's words. |
I am going to attempt to actually blog every day for habit heroes. This is my first goal related entry. I know I could continue to just comment on other people's blogs, but I feel like that's lazy. Although it can be hard some days to even do that. My colonoscopy went well yesterday although the prep gave me hemroids. |
Doing mentally better today but my joints are all conspiring against me. I have managed very little today. |
Yesterday I ran out of spoons by 11. I had a meltdown by 11:30. And was speaking in single word sentences until I droused around dinner time. Then I was up to three word sentences. I don't know for sure what broke me but I just couldn't. I tried to do WdC but... I just couldn't even do that. Running low on spoons today. Very close to tears. It didn't help that I forgot my morning pills until dinner time. I have a colonoscopy on the 7th and will be without my pills for 36 hours. Not looking forward to it. |
Starting early on today's badge quest. Nothing has happened yet today except that I am caught up on the poetry challenge. I've done the contest challenge for the month, that leaves the Bradbury, which I am behind by about two months. Without having written my story this month for that I can't enter the Bradbury contest. And I only have 7 entries towards I write for the year. That isn't quite 2 per month. I've forgotten how many I need to have finished by now. I should check. Update: I only need 25 entries for I write 2025. And I just finished entry 8. And entry 8 for the Bradbury. Both with an entry to the daily flash fiction contest. And it's only 12:24 here, 1:24 WdC time. Not bad for just a little under an hour and a half. |
