Today is my 31st (and final) slice for the
March Slice of Life Challenge on
It's over?!?! The End?!?! Another year of slicing daily is finished. Sigh...
I spent some time looking back and comparing the past couple of years of posts. This year there were posts about socks and time, organization and teamwork. Last year I wrote about reading and painting, being single and the neti pot. Both years I wrote about my journals, my pens, Sundays and writing.
Writing everyday is such a gift! The community here makes it happen. I sit down and write...but it's the accountability that pushes me to write and to participate on days when there's not enough time and I don't feel like it. I always miss it!!

Happy to be diving into April with a plan for posting poetry this month! There's a group of us who aren't ready to let go of living like a writer and we talked about posting a poem everyday for the month of April. No rules. We are using the hashtag #digipoetry. Consider this your invitation. If you want to blog daily...JOIN US!!!
Once again, this challenge has made such a difference to me. I have lived these past thirty-one days as a writer. The community of writers that have shared these days with me have motivated me and supported me. We. Are. Writers.

This is just the beginning...

ReplyDeleteI love how you compared your year's of writing topics. It will be fun to do that next year. Looking forward to writing and playing with poetry with everyone. I love the quote too. I have always said, you find the time when it is something you value.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to reading your poetry in April! Or your writing on any other day! Maybe this is the year we will actually meet?!
ReplyDeleteI love the affirmation that WE ARE WRITERS! This is kind of a sad day. However, I know you are part of my life now, so I don't really need to say "The End." :-)
ReplyDeleteI love your style! We are indeed writers. A simple yet important exultation...
