Today’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt “rope” inspired me to get out and take some pictures. Living near water and boats, rope takes on a special meaning of securing connection. Here’s an excerpt from my journal this morning: “I was tied in knots. The rope fraying, unraveling, the rope tossed, wasn’t fastened at the otherContinue reading “#SoCS: Splicing the Frayed Ends”

#SoCS: Everything Turns Into Dreams of Flight
Today’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt is “fortune.” Here’s an excerpt from my circular journey in my journal this morning. “The greatest of my fortunes is letting go of the past, of gathered resentments, and disappointments, turning them into new paths of discovery, changing them into flying dreams. How else can I explore “fortune” today?Continue reading “#SoCS: Everything Turns Into Dreams of Flight”
#NaNoWriMo & #NovPAD Day 7: A Healthy Ruin
Yesterday, I looked ahead at week ten of ModPo and was inspired by the work of Erica Baum. Specifically her collection “Dog Ear.” I’ve complained in the past how surprised I am that almost every book I get from the library has dog-eared pages. Who would do that?

I don’t generallyContinue reading “#NaNoWriMo & #NovPAD Day 6 & #SoCS: The Generally Suspect”

Stream of Consciousness Saturday (#SoCS): Run Yonder
Yesterday morning I happened upon Sammi Cox’s Weekend Writing Prompt. This weekly writing prompt offers a word prompt and a word limit. This weekend it is “Yonder” and the word limit is 44 words which I found familiar as it is the same as the dVerse Quadrille. I thought I would give it a goContinue reading “Stream of Consciousness Saturday (#SoCS): Run Yonder”
