Hello, how's things? Have been managing some mental issues. Yesterday, I went fishing at the harbour with some mates. Are doing or starting courses in poetry, photography & flute. Or that's the idea. We are shifting into Autumn here. A time to think about planting bulbs. I have a passion for blogging. It's an outlet & creative. Bye Fred |
Hello, how are things? I am well. Interested in poetry & artificial intelligence at the moment. Looking forward to Xmas dinner. Have a new app called " Living Writer". Don't read as much as I would like e.g. books. Doing an online course in writing. I would like to write something. Merry Xmas everyone.Fred |
Hello, nothing much to report. I live in the city now. I turned 64 back in May. Life is not so bad. I could want to write a book but not sure I have been doing enough reading. I am not sure I could. Bye Fred |
Hi Fred, the hardest thing for me about writing my first book was getting the words from my brain to the paper. I recommend you just write it down. Going old school using pen, lined paper, and cursive is best. Play softly some classical music in the background, like Mozart or Hayden's string quartet, to coax the artist within you out. Don't worry about spelling or punctuation. Write out what you want people to know in any order that comes out of the pen. Later, you can reflect on what sounds best while your reading/reviewing it. |
Oh, sorry, Fred, I forgot the most important aspect! Have fun, and be excited about writing your first book! I know you will! |
Hello. I am well. I have been doing poetry for blogs using artificial intelligence. I am also trying poetry manually. I'm not that informed about putting my poetry on Writing.com. Are doing the odd watercolour painting, and practising my Guitar 3or4 times a week. I play classical guitar. My poetry is a bit amateurish, everyone has to start somewhere.Bye Fred |
How's it going, I am fine. The weather is getting cooler & we are getting the Autumn colours on the deciduous trees. Watched a video this afternoon, a bit of escapism. Have been reading a bit more these days. Self improvement books & novels.. Hope things are going well for whatever pursuits you have. Bye Fred |
I wish I had a garden. The geranium inside is blooming though as is the kalachoe.
