Okay. So I'm not actually going to get all the Sugarland poems done by tomorrow. (What a shock, right!)
So I'm moving the deadline. And when I say moving, I mean getting rid of. I don't actually think I need it. Having the songs as inspiration actually makes it REALLY easy to write like crazy. So they will be there, just not by tomorrow.
My Year of Writing Dangerously
On the spur of one of my (increasingly rare) moments of inspiration, I decided that in order to maintain my artistic integrity, and because I can't keep calling myself a writer for much longer without actually WRITING something, I am going to write a poem a day for the next year. The first poem will be posted on August 10, 2010 and the last poem will be posted on August 10, 2011. (Unless, of course, I decide to keep going.) Not all of the poems will be good, and DEFINITELY not all of them will be interesting, but I will gaze around my kitchen, my living room, and Coming Home Cafe until something inspires me, then write a poem about it, as well as my random thoughts on the mundane things that no one notices, but which it is my goal to immortalize over the course of this year.
