Write, Write, Write!

     I am way behind on my "poem a week" adventure, but I worked on the Snow White poem for the Enchanted  Conversations site.  I think I finally got it.  I'll have to go back and see if it makes any sense today, but that is what it's all about.  At least I have it down on paper.  I have some time left to tweak it.  Snow White poetry submissions are due between Wednesday, May 11 and Saturday, May 14.  After Snow White, it will be on to Cinderella.  It is nice to have a topic and a deadline to work with, even if I don't get it published in enchantedconversation.com.  Maybe there will be a better place for it, like another contest or a book of my own poetry.
     I don't know that I will try to make up my missing poems, but I am going to try to get back to a normal schedule.  I feel quality is better than quantity, but if I don't have a goal, it can't be accomplished.
     I started another short story this week.  There are contests all over the place.  I need to pick one so that I have a goal date to finish this story, otherwise it may just end up half-written mess in one of my many notebooks.  I am sure I could always go back to it, but I do like to finish something every once in a while.  This might be a good time considering that there are so many contests coming up.
