The Holidailies are posts that are related to the Holiday Experience so you will find a lot of cool stories, recipes and photographs with a holiday theme.
If have a site to share, you might want to dive ii. The Goal is to do a post a day, but nobody kicks you off if you can’t.
I hope you’ll stop by my blog- as well as the others you will find listed at the Holidailies site- and you will have as much fun reading as we had creating.
I tell stories, take pictures and write poems but the one thing I haven’t done is really talk about me- you can see and read the result of my inspiration (S) but not much more then that.
Even when I do open the door and let people catch a glimpse of me, I tell a story about what you see.
I really do enjoy blogs where writers and artists drop posts about their lives and what is going on in them- that is brave and honest.
Does this mean I’m neither brave nor honest in my writing?
I really do struggle with that question.
I’m of two minds, you might say.
Just like Poor Edward Mordake.
Edward Mordake: Fictional Version From American Horror Story
Edward Mordake was said to have had a face on the back of his head- it spoke to him, tormented him, drove him to suicide.
Sometimes I get how that feels- to have one part of you war with the other part- who will win? Does it matter?
In Edward’s case it did.
In mine I think it keeps my blog- my writing from being fully realized.
I’m not sure I care for that- not one bit.
Do you agree or disagree?
So I’ll just throw it out there- answer of you want:
My blog is about writing and to a lesser degree photography ( I feel my pictures tell their own story, so I don’t consider myself a budding photographer- it’s just another way to write as far as I’m concerned )
Does going off on little essays ( I guess that is what this is ) add to my blog, to my writing. Or does it distract from it?
Please leave me your thoughts in the comment section- or if you write about it post the link there too. I would really like to learn how other Writers approach this.
I TOOK THE CREATIVE BULL BY IT’S CREATIVE HORNS AND I MADE IT MINE.
I AM A FIERCE WRITER!
Well anyhoo this is what I accomplished this month:
Vilhelm Hammershoi
I’ve tried new things like writing Poetry.
Poetry is fun, I’m really glad I don’t know what I’m doing. I was really sad to find out there are rules and I’m not following them- I’m not sad I didn’t follow the rules, I’m just sad there are some.
I’ve also explored artwork- I’ve discovered I really have a love for Abstract Art and Impressionist Art. There are rules in that too, but I don’t have to care because I can’t paint. I can barely write legibly and I screw up stick figures. So I just get to admire the art and be inspired by it.
I’ve also discovered some great blogs to read so my bus commute home is fun and I no longer spend the bus ride hoping I’ll get hit by lightening and spared that particular form of drudgery.
Yay on that.
Monet
And the biggest take away this month has been that I really do like the sound of my own (writer’s ) voice, no matter what is going on I CAN find the time to write and create and to top it all off we are done with August and I can go into full Halloween Mode.
YAY YAY YAY.
John Quidor
So the posts will continue on a daily basis- where it goes nobody knows, there are a lot of writing projects to be tried.
But Halloween is going to be a big deal around here and that will color a lot of what I write about.
and to replace it I started a second blog. There’s more reading involved then what I do at FB, but that’s not such a bad thing when what you do is WRITE.
I hope you will visit that blog too for all kinds of random stuff by me
