    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

March CSR Discussion Day: Break the Day by dragonenthusiast

Did you read this month's featured CSR story, Break the Day, by dragonenthusiast? Share your thoughts on the story below, but first of course, is my interview with this GA author who just passed their first year mark a few months ago!  Have you ever gone out in public, realized your shirt is on backwards, and just don’t care? That actually happened to me just last week. I was sitting at my PC working and then realized something was scratching me on my collarbone, found the shirt tag, a

Weekly Wrap Up (Mar. 22 - Mar. 28)

I am exhausted   If anyone has worked with software for the entire workplace, I'm sure all I need to say is SAP upgrade, and you will know my pain. My company had 5 different buckets or regions and we are working towards 1. This means teams and teams of people all verifying data, processes and other such stuff region by region until their live date. Me included nationally. I start early, leave late and even today I woke up at stupid 5 AM when I didn't have work today. Tomorrow I do, so

Childhood Heroes

Do you have one? Or two? Mine is too cringeworthy to tell...   PT Prompt #333   You or your main character are/is invited to a motto party. The motto: Childhood heroes. Who is their childhood hero? Is it difficult to create the costume? What’s the reason for the party? Write their story in as many words as you need, but do not just answer the questions; just saying.... PT Prompt #334   It’s a wedding party, not necessarily the protagonist’s. A relative en

Gone

I got a call from my sister this morning. "Bub, they found Adam unresponsive. I'm not sure how he is, but I'll let you know. Mom is super upset, so I know it's bad. Love you. I'll call soon." A few minutes passed ... then the phone vibrated with a text. Two words. "He's gone." My brother died today. My brother is gone.

Weekly Wrap Up (Mar. 15 - Mar. 21)

I was about to write a blog about how we are only halfway through the month but then realized that we only have a few days left 😮 In the past day I've had April showers in March bringing May flowers, and March snowstorms killing any May flowers that popped earlier than April. Wait, did I F that up? Well yes I did. I cannot judge what month we are in anymore by the weather outside.  I know I once read that Medellin, Columbia has an average temp of 22 C/72 F year round. I could live with that
