Thanks for reading, Akoth! Hope to give the draft much more care and have something good when it’s ready.

I enjoyed the narrative of the poem. I also liked the priority of the read instead of the to-do list at the end 😊

You have to start somewhere. It’s really about becoming motivated to do one thing then hopefully working up to others.

I definitely agree in part. I do also subscribe to the view that if we act, how we want to feel will follow. That’s useful for me some days. But not every day. 😊

True. Sometimes thinking too much is an impediment. It’s best to just get going.

You brave human. Registered for Nano with one member from my writers group I wrote one word. ONE. He wrote a bit more then his wife got very I’ll then he got unwell 🤧 we were supposed to encourage each other but... wrote a flash thinking of writing another around my Nano not Nano experience. Flash mind. Whole novels? Taking a class on Reedsy clearly wasn’t ready for the Dino that is Nano. All the best.

Thank you! It’s quite the slog and even the good days feel sweaty. Hope springs every year when you’re ready. Sorry things didn’t work out this time.

Thank you, Elizabeth! I’m kind of tired but still chugging. I’ll need a lot more time on this but at least the seed exists.
