It's always amazing to see how very differently the 4 people in our group deal with the prompt we're given. I'm glad to hear your daughter writes some poetry! But yeah -- I've discovered poetry needs a LOT of revision. At least mine does!Jeanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15590153368194137758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1761080938810306228.post-12474036024485015502015-06-04T00:23:19.608-04:002015-06-04T00:23:19.608-04:00Oh Jeannie, you had me laughing out load about the...Oh Jeannie, you had me laughing out load about the Nut Bar with the orange tabby cat named Snowball. So funny. And what a great story about Dale! Great stories. Good for you on writing the poems. Poetry intrigues me, but I don't think I could write a poem to save my life. My daughter, on the other hand, just jotted off a brilliant piece in about 5 minutes the other day...I should get her to do revising work on it.Betsy de Cruzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16787903903743238209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1761080938810306228.post-83462973776933034502015-06-02T13:18:22.105-04:002015-06-02T13:18:22.105-04:00I don't know where the perogies part came from...I don't know where the perogies part came from, to be honest -- I'm not sure I've ever even had one! Glad you enjoyed these pieces. They're a bit more complete than most of the things I write for this exercise, though -- to be more authentic I really should publish a few of the ones that ended in the middle of a sentence and had no plot!Jeanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15590153368194137758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1761080938810306228.post-21533174392121967942015-06-02T12:37:20.674-04:002015-06-02T12:37:20.674-04:00Great job, Jeannie, but maybe that's because I...Great job, Jeannie, but maybe that's because I love perogies. And even without perogies, I'd have taken the guy up on the offer of a free meal. Who knows, maybe his mom would have brought a second batch anyway.<br /><br />See how well you wrote? My mouth is watering and this is a piece of fiction!Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12313216250048083410noreply@blogger.com
