| Straight into it. I have not written in a long time. Why? is a question i often ask myself. I regularly buy a new A6 notebook to carry round and jot down my ideas. What do i do with them? Instead of filing them and using them for prompts or developing them into projects i put them down and forget them. Or do i? I regularly, well for last few weeks again come on the site and read through whats happening. I have even made notes on one or two of the competitions fully intent on entering, I never do. It has just dawned on me why. I have been doing a bit of reviewing, i am no grammar expert, infact my grammar is pretty dire an area i need to work on. I tend to review on how the piece makes me feel and what if any particular feelings the piece triggers. I only have 4 pieces of work in my portfolio and i have had some feedback most of it positive, all of it helpful, but i have realised it is fear more than anything that stops me writing and asking for reviews. Even though i know 99% of people will be constructive and helpful. Does anyone else feel the same? Anyway i have made the decision over the next month i am going to enter at least one competition and try to add two more additions to my portfolio. I may even try my hand at poetry. I do not know much about it but like all writing as long as it comes from within i cannot go far wrong surely. So after all that 'Onwards and upwards' as the saying goes. |
