This is the place for all my spotlight challenges |
Well, I guess I got what I expected from this competition; a challenge. I have written a poem , a newspaper article, tried my hand at strictly dialogue, and in the end had an overall good time. I was challenged not only to write beyond my self-proclaimed borders but also to do it within a very tight time limit.Because I kept checking my e-mail several times in the cycle of the day, I found myself on the computer as much as if I were still creating papers for school.I enjoyed it even if my husband kept asking me, "I thought you were out of school this week?" I have enjoyed getting to know some of my fellow writer's and their work. And I think this type of challenge is a great way to bring people together. As happens a lot in this era of technology, we did have a couple of people who had glitches with the site (myself included) and then some who either had glitches and could not participate or something else kept them away. But those of us who could participate did so heartily. Once we had the definition of creed nailed down we got it done. It was during this task that some of our members did not show up but it still worked out. I have to say I really enjoyed this experience and I would do it again...in a week or two but hopefully at least one more time this century. Today,I have issues with deadlines that I am still trying to get over or around or however I can fix them. Tonight I will sit down at my computer and see what else I can get into. The Spotlight has fired up my muse and I must write, period. So until next time, See ya... Annie |
