Sadly, it no longer looks like this.

YET AGAIN FOR THE 4TH TIME IN 9 MONTHS!

 




Just yesterday, I got my internet repaired. 

That is why you have not heard from me. 


You can imagine how fun these last few days 

as a blood courier has been!

Say a prayer will you?

To end with a smile
and
a bit of reflection:

ANOTHER THOUGHT FOR THE DAY


I just learned I lost a good friend last year while I was homeless for eight months and ill with Covid-19.

I will write more of that loss later when I have the time to do her justice.

But this poem came to mind as I prayed for her ...


May life be kinder to

all of us this year.

I'M HERE BUT I'M NOT ALL THERE_IWSG Post

 


The title to this post is the title to the 7th chapter 
to my Amazon Vella submission.


Are you reluctant to try Amazon Vella
or to enter the writing world at all
after this Covid hiatus?

Could the title to this post
apply to how you feel
about trying to write again?


A century ago, Sigmund Freud
called it "reiseangst"

what psychologists now call
"Re-entry Fear."


How about succeeding by
THINKING SMALL?


Try writing Haiku's.

Haiku's are written sparse word
by sparse word.


Thinking small for your Haiku
keeps you in the moment.

You find you can conjure
a mood with only a few words.


Shrink your writing universe
to a population of one:
You


Amazon Vella
has helped 
by leading me to break
my novel
into riveting chapters
each with their own arcs.

What helps you?
