What are your biggest challenges?
Daily Prompt
One challenge these days is organizing my creative work. Blogs work so well for this goal. When I reprint a poem, or if a new poem from my blogs is published again in a journal or book, I note the references and credits in a post or page. This is a work-in-progess, and I like that I can update posts.
Over time, a lot of good work can grow, one post at a time. Then the challenge is to review here and there. You may have written a haiku sequence, a chapbook, short stories, some poems for notecards or a collage, or a poem for a bulletin board to encourage others.
Hopefully, I grow as a writer here, and can also review my work and see how I can write a poem a little better. Wonderful to try new ideas.
This Page is an example of how work can be organized: Haiku Society of America Members’ Anthologies (my haiku 2013 – 2022).
Thank you and blessings for your creative work!

Creativity
How are you creative?
Daily Prompt
There are many ways to be creative, and we are all creative. I read and write poetry. I try new blog and post designs, as I learn more about WordPress. I reprint older poems in new ways, and I write new poems.
A note of encouragement, a simple meal, ideas for a garden next year . . . my creativity changes over time. Grateful every day. And sometimes I simply need to rest for awhile. Spring follows winter.

Share what you know about the year you were born.
Daily Prompt
Excellent prompt. I was born a long time ago, and this would take some time to research. I can say today that this year I have made an effort to learn a lot more about history. There are many ways to learn – the sequence of events, memoirs and letters, stories I missed when I was young. Our rich diverse complex history. I also learn a lot from poetry and our blogs. Thank you.
Photos
Just a few of the many wonderful and interesting photos I have been able to publish here so far. Thank you to all the artists.
And I will continue with more photos in future posts. Thank you and blessings.
