The Writing Process,

Writing. So here we are, still writing, but consolidated to a single country now. All our homes brought back to one place. Perhaps there will be time to concentrate on the writing? We shall see. As you can tell I am only putting fragments of poetry on my posts now. This is to enable me to send them in for publishing and competitions. Sorry about the way this works, it seems a personal blog is considered being published now.

Here though is something for you to mull over. From Writing 101, Daily Challenge.

I Write Because,

The page is empty,
I need to create gaps
that will hold the words.

The image is clear,
but there is confusion
in the explanation.

Words will have their way,
and will come anyway,
uninvited in the night.

There is a certain light
that is creative in the dark,
picking out the meaning.

I cannot stop the movement
of words without setting them,
fixed on the page.

I want to shout out loud,
but everywhere there
is silence and echoes.

Whats going on as I or you write. Ask questions about my work or leave examples of your own. I will reply to everything. Mostly, I hope. At least more often than not.
