For any of you who may not know me, I’ve attached the above self-portrait. In real life, I am actually a cubist painting.
Since I normally write only poetry, and post multiple times a day as it is, I’m taking the Poblano challenge by writing essays instead. I am planning to post every day for the next month at this exact time of day* (5:55 PM US Eastern Time). It takes me forever to write essays, as I always have to go back in a hundred times and get rid subconscious rhymes.
I’m looking forward to the challenge, however; and I’m excited about reading the works of other bloggers. I’ve been reading many of your blogs for the first time these last few days, and I’ve really enjoyed it.
It’s good to be in a community of artistic people, each sharing a common sort of goal. I don’t know about you, but I’ve often felt, in my life, like I was strange, or different from everyone else for having the interests I do.
Of course, it’s hard not to feel strange when you are a cubist painting consisting largely of circles.
* Unless I randomly decide to change the posting time one Sunday, in which case I will no doubt add the note you are reading now.
Nice to meet you !
Love the self portrait and I spend most of my time with essays editing out contractions. At least when it comes to formal essays. It’d be interesting to read an essay from you with rhymes left in. 😀

It is a pleasure to meet you as well. I love contractions, I can’t seem to do without them.
I’m sure the rhymes will sneak in there if I don’t take a lot of care.
Happy Nano!

I guess most of us feel we are a little weird, but that can be a good thing.

Being weird is a good thing! I think.

I don’t know. Writing essays is very time consuming.
