I have now managed to do a few things on yesterday’s list.
I have rung the Pharmacy – got straight through this time – and given them my PORN number. If you wonder what that is (and it probably isn’t what you’re thinking) you can read it in yesterday’s post.
I have also reset my OU password and had a quick look at where I am. Having done the courses What is Poetry? and War Memorials and Commemoration, I am 31% of the way through Approaching Poetry. I haven’t done anything since 16th December, when the great password purge locked me out and ignored me over Christmas, so I’m going to have to redo the 31% to get back up to speed. I may well go through the others too, just to brush up.
As a third thing, which I should have done, but didn’t list, I have sorted out my first published haiku. I needed it for something else and also needed to check submission dates for Wales Haiku Journal. Having done all that, I thought, I may as well give it an airing alongside a couple of almost relevant photos.
I have been working towards deadlines of 25th and 31st January, thinking I had plenty of time. I don’t. It’s 21st today and I am badly prepared for 25th. I have the material, but it needs a final polish. I’m actually better prepared for the 31st, having two of the three submissions to go. Only the third needs work, the main problem being that I haven’t decided which is going to be the third piece.
With that in mind, I had better go and do some work on that instead of messing around with haiku and photos.
Keep it up – the first published one is wonderful
Thank you.
I enjoyed the clouds, and the goose & duck comparison. Best of luck regarding the upcoming submissions! You will do fine.
Thank you. Even a rejection is an opportunity to learn. 🙂
Good luck. I have noticed that time slips by all the time.
Certainly does!
Life has a habit of providing so many distractions!
🙂 It does that!
Beautiful picture of clouds! Sounds as though you have lots of creative projects in the works. No better way to start the New Year.
I have lots of things in mind – I just need to actually do some of them!
