Plan

As a nurse, a veteran, and a generally disorganized person, I really appreciate a good protocol. Patry Francis has suggested a grand one. During Nanowrimo last year, I posted the day's writing, to general confusion, and a dramatic drop in readership (understandably.) This year I am using her idea of a template for the week, short but pointed, daily posts. Starting 1 November.

The plan goes something like this. Because that poem, Monday's Child, is engraved into my psyche. Like the Be A Rainbow one.

Monday: Cat Photo (very fair of face, our Moby.)

Tuesday: A Grace. A gratitude or a blessing.

Wednesday: Complaint. (Full of woe.)

Thursday: A question. (Far to go.)

Friday: 10 Things Day. (You get the idea.)

Saturday: Work anecdote or joke.

Sunday: Art or music or pretty, or a small photo of something homely.

Colour me surprised: I became a frequent visitor during that time, because of those posts. I thought Pi was terrific, and still think so.

Udge, MB,

Not to worry, I will also make my nanowrimo work in progress available. You fine folks were in the minority, though. Sign of excellent taste, obviously.

Huh.


Huh.


And I'll bet it works, too.

Parallels. All this geometry appearing: structure.

I do believe I may adapt my own little version. Won't announce it just yet, though, as I can't promise anything at this point.

But it would be something.

November came quickly. Can't wait to read what you have to write.
