The Things We Forget
Mar. 16th, 2024 07:04 pmApparently I used to write original fiction and poetry. I don't remember doing that much, but I was searching my email for something and saw some comments on my poetry. Then I realized I'd tried to admin a group for original writing that had sholio, tipper, nottasha, and other fantastic writers in it. What really spooks me is that I barely remember this at all? Like, seriously, why is my memory so bad???
So I went back and read some of my old poems and stories and now I really want to write more original works. I have a few more memories of the community and now I wish I had the opportunity to have such a community again. I'd love a chance to have monthly prompts to write a poem or a scene, anything to just have an excuse to write something original. It feels like a small prompt a month would be a manageable way to write original work, especially if I knew I had people who might read it and it was posted in a private group.
I'm really tempted to see if I can start a similar community again.
