July was long. July was busy. Hard.
And still I managed to finish the #JulyCreativeChallenge – I honestly don’t know how, especially when I put everything together. There’s a lot! Of course, there’s a fluctuation of quality in the micro poems: I can spot a few I like as is, a few I’d like to expand, and some that are frankly a bit of a fail. That’s pretty standard. I also firmed up a few opinions or hunches as to what people seem to like and respond to, and if using this medium is even the best choice. For example, for every positive comment I think there were a few quiet unfollows or unlikes. Whether that’s because these people were seeing a double-up of the poem on social media, or think my poems stink (quite possible!), whatever the reason, that’s life. In all honesty, I’m quite proud I made it.
I did wonder whether it would be best to split this post into two parts but decided against it in the end. That would dilute the effect. If you missed them, here they are. In no particular order.
You made it all the way down here!? Hello! And thank you! Tell me what you thought – I’d love to hear.
