So, I’ve had some good news within this scary, uncertain time the world is going through. I’ve been offered an unconditional offer for the Creative Writing Masters at Leeds Trinity! So I’m going to try focus on ideas for a poetry collection, and I have two ideas (which I’m sure I’ve mentioned before). The firstContinue reading “Random Ramblings”

My Masters application has been sent. Fingers crossed! I should have some new poem ideas up on Thursday. Promise.

So I have two ideas to try and challenge my writing a bit. 1). I’ve bought A Practical Guide to Poetry Forms by Alison Chisholm, to refresh me on poetry forms and challenge myself to write in something other than free-verse. 2). I really like the idea of poems with music. Or music written toContinue reading “Random Ramblings”

So the Masters open day was yesterday, and the course is everything I was hoping it would be. And the finance support is BETTER than I hoped for. So definitely be applying (just need to chase some people down for my references). I’ve got three new poem ideas I still need to post, which shouldContinue reading “Random Ramblings”

Sorry I haven’t posted anything for a while, it’s been a crazy past few days. I have a few poem ideas written, I just haven’t had the chance to type them up. But Saturday is the big day, the masters course open day, so hopefully I’ll get inspired again once I’ve viewed and checked theContinue reading “Random ramblings”

I’ve finished two more poems for competitions today (which I won’t post here until after the results have been announced, just in case). It struck me so powerfully, as I was writing them, how much I’ve missed this. For about four years I haven’t been able to write much, and I don’t think I realisedContinue reading “Rambling”

Finally figured out how to display the categories at the bottom of the main page, so people can actually go to certain topics and posts. One poem is complete and entered into the York competition. It turned out different from what I thought, and I didn’t use half the theme I was planning, so IContinue reading “Rambling”

Rambling/poem start

20:17 Observations and calculations, theories and controlled experiments There are two poetry competitions with a 31st January deadline, so I’m hoping to browse through the poem ideas I’ve had so far and compose at least two full, complete poems to enter. There’s the Kent and Sussex Poetry Society Open Poetry Competition http://www.kentandsussexpoetry.com. And there’s TheContinue reading “Rambling/poem start”

Didn’t have a chance to write any poems today (was editing my husband’s college assignment) but did have a new plan for future poems. At the moment I’m just writing whatever comes to mind, and I want to challenge myself to other things I wouldn’t usually think of. So like the writing prompts I haveContinue reading “Random Ramblings”

Extra stuff (rambling)

So my other site is coming down, because I don’t really see the point of keeping it when I have this. I’ll be posting my anime scripts and maybe the Firo novel on here too. It’s a huge relief and joy to be writing poetry again, so I’m hoping story writing will start happening againContinue reading “Extra stuff (rambling)”
