    These are all wonderful in their own right. I love your take on the prompts, especially the dog and rain. And the rooftop. As always, I am in awe of your use of form. Well done, Parker.

    Sorry about the formatting. I have no idea how to fix it. I did a lot of copying/pasting from emails, so I think that's what screwed it up.

    NaPoWriMo Week Three 15. Swimming Pool Concrete suburban pond Hub of summer activity Hiding place from boorish adults who considered it fun to chase terrified children until the reviled thing became a safe haven. 16. Swimming Lessons Flailing limbs, burning lungs, Despair and hopelessness only fuel the sociopath's desire to 'teach' how to swim underwater. 17. This poem cannot change the weather, But it can provid

    You could try voice recognition software like Dragon Naturally Speaking. I hope you get your meds sorted out soon.

    I love the banner and the theme. I need more hours in the day.
  6. Valkyrie
    Well I'm hooked. Sounds like a great story.

    Another interesting exercise. They are unique offerings and I quite like them all. #9, 14, and 15 stood out to me.
  9. Valkyrie
    Thanks. That would make an interesting first line prompt.

    Thanks, Parker. I'm always amazed when people honk at other cars simply for making a turn. It seems to be happening more and more.

    Thanks so much

    Thank you

    I completely understand the urge to revise until the story is 'perfect'. Luckily, I have a beta reader who will rein me in and tell me I need to stop revising and move forward when I need to hear it.

    NaPoWriMo 2018 Week Two 8. The dull pencil, Wooden and leaden, Beckons slumbering wit To sharpen with Words and colors. 9. Budded arms stretch toward crimson clouds, Seeking to shed their frozen blanket. It’s a January scene, Breathtaking with shadowy contrast Between stark lines, Backlit by the colorful sunrise. But it’s mid-April, So this shit can stop any time. 10. Diagnosis What was once important Rende

    I like these a lot. You've masterfully woven two themes together... April weather, but also the seasons of life. I know exactly what 8 is speaking of, and you nailed it perfectly. I loved the metaphor and the old boots. 12 in particular spoke to me. Each one of these poems is a delight in its own way. Well done, my friend.

    This looks like an interesting selection. I like the theme and love the banner.
  18. Valkyrie
    Very true
  19. Valkyrie
    I like this challenge a lot, but it also falls right when the anthology is due. I doubt I'll have time for it, but will see how my anthology stories come along. Hopefully I'll have time for both.

    Valkyrie commented on quokka's blog entry in quokka's Blog

    Thank you for letting us know. I've been wondering about her. She mentioned a while ago that she had been placed on hospice care. I'm so sorry to hear this. She will definitely be missed.

    Thanks so much I'm really happy with the response to Anomia. Thanks for reading and commenting
  22. Valkyrie
    Thanks so much. Those two are my favorites as well.
  23. Valkyrie
    Thanks so much, Addy.

    I'm so pleased #6 has touched so many. Anomia is another name for word-retrieval or word-finding difficulties, which is a common occurrence for people with brain injuries. I'm a speech-language pathologist and this poem reflects a conversation I had in a therapy session with one of my individuals.
  25. Valkyrie
    Thanks so much. I'm glad Anomia has stuck a chord with so many.
