    2026 Poetry Anthology - Choices - **Wrap-up**

    By Valkyrie

    We had twelve poems featured for this year's poetry anthology. What a perfect way to celebrate National Poetry Writing Month! A huge thank you to all who participated by writing poems, reading, reacting, commenting, and reviewing.  Participation is what keeps these events going every year, and I know myself, for one, look forward to the anthologies all year.  I couldn't coordinate the anthologies without help, so I'd like to give a shout-out to the people who make things happen behind the scenes

Two themes!  So if one doesn't strike your fancy, hopefully the other one will.  Ideally, both will inspire authors to write a story for each.  So without further ado, here are the themes for the 2026 GA Anthology!

Motivation

Warning: I'm about to geek out over working out. Move on if you aren't interested. LOL   I've got the habit now. Getting up early, going to the gym, and getting that handled 4-5 days a week is now something I just do. I used to be extrinsically motivated by results. I needed to SEE changes to keep doing what I needed to do. But I'm past that. It's just something I do (which helps with consistency).   But after using a new workout system called "Average to

Weekly Wrap Up (Jan. 11 - Jan. 17)

Monday is the day they call Blue Monday. If you remember, last week I revealed to all that I was down in the dumps   I really have to give you all the hugest hugs . After watching all the music vids and then watching 3 favourite shows: Ferris Buhler's Day Off, Red White and Royal Blue, and Heated Rivalry (my favourites, don't judge me  ) and going for a longer walk, I was feeling better.
