I have yet to join that writing challenge for that very reason. I would not have the time to do it. I barely manage to scape up the time to continue writing my second draft, although I am squeezing in the time, and managing a couple of blogs a month,but thats it!
When my time is my own again, when I am no longer responsible for the daily care of an elderly parent, I might give it a go.
Love your poetry, though. Nice humour threaded through it. I will have to try that ‘writing only what you see’ style. It is very effective.
Good luck with completing the challenge and looking forward to the post-mortem.
Thank you so much Ann. I haven't personally had to care for an elderly parent, but I have been very close with people who have, and I understand just how intensive of a time and energy commitment that really is. Fitting one's own life into such a commitment is difficult, let alone finding time for creativity.
I am glad there is some humor shining through the poems, I hope to bring even more of that.
Really enjoyed the poems. Keep those coming! 😊
Thank you!
