What would you like to read?

Hi there,

I am trying to figure out what would you like to read here? As this blog is mixed, both with poetry and my ear, I still would like to know what you prefer and balance it, i.e. to post from both sides a bit. 


I wish I were savvy enough to figure out how to create a tab for each topic one but I am not that smart :P


So let me know if you want and I'll post from everything a bit :)

Thanks for reading!

Will write soon!

Nanowrimo preparation!!!

Help!! It's again this time of the year.... but I am glad that it IS this time of the year.... at least during the month of November I have a good excuse to be inside when it's cold outside and to WRITE!!


What is great about nanowrimo "National Novel Writing Month" is that all words count, even those that you wrote twice by accident, repetitions etc, wrong-spelled words all's ok as long as you keep writing because afterwards you can always delete what you do not want to be there.


I'm pondering... and as I think I get various ideas for this year. There is always a story to write about... but sometimes you just think is it worth 50,000 words? Is it worth even to give it a try? Sometimes stories are not happy! Mine are definitely not happy. I am not a happy writer by nature so mine are rarely happy. I like *drama* and you hard of this saying "Drama is poetry's best friend". I agree with this statement. It is very true!


My last year's novel was about a schizophrenic poet. :) yeah too funny! :P I didn't want to give up poetry writing so I had to write a story where I can still write poetry and it did work out. I didn't write just poetry but when I felt inspired I included some poems inside my novel and it worked well with the story itself. It's a morbid story about a killer who is sick so he had no idea what he did. I have to read this novel so I can decide if I am going to continue with this story or write a new one. I want to have a finished story! SO I will have to do that to figure out if it's worth to continue or not. Last year I didn't bother to read my story because I was so tired after nanowrimo that I needed a LONG break from my story. Yesterday almost a year passed by, when I finally printed out my story... I think my mind is fresh to read it .. but will it help me to make the decision easier?? I have no damn idea but I am glad that I still have some more or less 3 weeks left to decide.... phew.... I need to hurry!


I read my first 4 pages, still here and there some gaps, but what I read so far I do like :) it doesn't sound so bad at all. It is a story! :)


Will write more soon!

My poetry book is published & I got my copy

Link to my Facebook page

I'm so glad it arrived a few weeks ago! That was definitely a long process until I held the book finally in my hands :)) What a great feeling! It still feels so unreal :) I am still me, ok I have my own book published but I don't feel any different than before, ok maybe I am filled with a lot more happy feelings than before :)

Three years ago I joined ccor because I wanted to write a book, (this was my goal). I had no idea it will be a POETRY book :) but it all turned out the way it was supposed to be! I don't know if my muse was there all the time or if this creativity was born, if I the poet was born or if it was all inside me but through English and through poetry I discovered I can share my thoughts in a rhythmical and rhyming way :)

Take a look inside the table of contests:
