I think about writing more than I write, but call myself a writer as opposed to a thinker.

"Loving music's never over." This hit me. Your poem is beautiful and reads like a whispered, empowering song.
Great job Ashley! I hope you are successful with your goal for this month. Now about that writing streak...I've been on a good one recently. I don't publish every day but I've been working on this story (that just keeps growing) for a few days. I kind of made it a goal to either write or do some sort of planning every day to improve my writing skills.
I may not be much of a poetry guy, but it's nice to see you back doing what you do so well, write. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
I really liked this...like...firstly cos it means something new from you, Ashley! And also it's a fab abecedarian. Love your challenge too. Wish you well with it and glad you're getting back to the roots and just writing. I've had similar issues recently. Still been writing...but...felt...directionless? Like...I started worrying and wanting everything to feel pristine or pure magic...so got myself tied in knots a little. Sometimes writing is just good because it's writing. Look forward to a month of Lima originals!
interesting take-really fun to read
Oooo, your Abecedarian was fantastic! Also, did you mean 29 days. It's a leap year this year. Looking forward to read all your poems!
This is an awesome challenge and a great poem 💗
The flow is actually good and totally works well with the topic. I'm not sure what my longest stint is. I have been writing every day for a while now. But mostly editing. We had a writer on here challenge herself to write a micro for every community and she pulled it off in the time she quoted. Best of luck in your challenge and good to see a post from you.
