When You Quit Camp NaNoWriMo

August 4, 2019

Yes, I quit Camp NaNoWriMo about halfway through. I didn’t do it because of writer’s block, though. I quit because I was traveling. But that’s a bad excuse. Don’t worry, I’ve got a better one.

Poetry: Cello

August 29, 2018

A bow across strings, Dusty rosin dancing, Fingers flying, Shifting, Leaping, Notes on a page, Standing strong and still, Like little soldiers waiting for their turn to march, Pages flying to and fro, And the sound, Deep and high, Magical and hopeful, Sad and quiet, Joyful and loud, The perfect instrument– Cello.
