Poetry prompt Today’s OctPoWriMo prompt is doing something you’ve always wanted to do
Forms Joseph’s Star or LaJemme

Ever since I started playing with klecksography, I intended to draw on my inkblots and put poems on them, but I couldn’t get myself to do it. I even made photocopies of a lot of my inkblots, but still couldn’t get myself to draw on them. So to go along with today’s theme, I grabbed one of my inkblots, drew this happy creature on it and wrote my poem on it. I dared to try a poem form I’ve been wanting to try as well: a grid in which the poem can be read in rows, columns, and/or diagonally.

For today’s visual prompt, I chose this still from The Double by Richard Ayoade
micro-story : She was tired of running up the stairs only to stare into an empty room. What did she think she would do if she saw the source of the banging, the footsteps? Her nerves were quickly fraying. What could she do?

NaNo Prep
Today I have a regional prep workshop. I’m excited to see what they have to say and to get to know the participants in my region better.
That is a really cool image and poem. Nice work!
I don’t know if I’ll do NaNoWriMo this year or not. I tend to prefer Camp NaNoWriMo because I can choose my own goal rather than adhere to their word count goal. To be honest, unless I write erotica for NaNoWriMo, what I end up with is an unholy mess that I can’t bear to ever look at again.
