Pride and Prejudice at the Library and Two Poetry Re-Finds
Quickly snapped in a pleasantly secluded spot.🧚♂️I think the Non-Fiction sign signifies that I’m real (maybe.) 😊 This time the bus came, and Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice also made it to the library (with a Jane character inside, and a mistakenly named-Jane, myself, who often wouldn’t correct people who seemed confused with the name […]

A Christmas Carol, Bonus Stories by Charles Dickens
I loved reading the “Other Stories” in Charles Dickens’ Christmas book and I finished the last two very short pieces this morning. They can all be read separately, and I can see how someone could pick one and read it slowly. The majority of pieces seem to be memoir style with universal themes and are […]

“The Law”
November 21, 2022 A new poem in a style of summary or hypothetical; you may notice the style (somewhat inspired by the allegorical humor of artist and poet Kahlil Gibran).

Where?
I am seeing time moving forward in days, weeks, and months, rather than as a single day with few hours, so I just keep writing my novel as much as I would like to each week, and time continues replenishing on its own… That leaves me at 2928 words to rest the whole weekend, a […]

A Very Cute Blue Cookie
A poetic line came to mind just before I met the NaNoWriMo writers tonight…It brought me to the more center place in my story’s theme, as I was getting myself thrown into a corner before that in my draft. I told a little visual from my own draft to relate to the other writers’ stories. […]

A Dream Definition, An Apple Suggestion, and A Cat with a Full Repertoire for His Paws
After I wrote yesterday evening, I dreamed some invisible being wanted me to know very directly and with great importance, yet in true life the line is metaphoric: “You are in essence a fairy woman, and you are meant to be with apples often.” I set up a bath ready with apple slices: two slices […]

A Branch I’d Just Found and Pressed, Just One Leaf Stayed, and Two Poems
One leaf stayed on this little branch I found last week and pressed; leaves come out of a book sooner preserved than flowers; it looks like a wing to dance and the perfect nature-found, little handmade bookmark for this pocket-sized poetry book.

The second shelf center cup just arrived yesterday…it gleams so purely on display.

A Picture of a Moment in My Life in Words
We’d recently had the shower/bath tile wall re-grouted. The workers arrive and knock, I open the door, I am probably half their height as I say hi and welcome them in.
