Camp NaNoWrimo 2021 Final Day

Today is the final day of CampNaNoWriMo2021. My total word count so far is 60,435 of the target of 50,000 words, so I not only achieved my goal, but exceeded it! Go me, yay!

Well that is the good news. The other news is that I still have some effort to complete the book, which will be the seventh/eight depending on the editing in the series of “Perfection” which is my upon coming sci-fi book series. So, thus the final leg of book begins and I, will be typing away through the ever lightening nights 😉

This has been a busy month of writing to say the least but also there was a great incentive to do so once again with the gang at NaNoWriMo.org foundation and those writers taking part in this challenge feeling my pain or fun or what ever the sensation might be, to be on top of things and to achieve the allotted timeframes.

If you haven’t already, then go and check out what is going on at the NaNoWriMo site as there are all kinds of information for writers and also these cool camps to participate in, find other writers and finally start working on that novel you had planned!

Happy writing all!

that supports the bridge?”

Path of Stone

You may find the road ahead stony
Sometimes clean, sometimes moldy
But, if you ate your cup of minestrone
Then you’re strong, without a worry!

Treasure Stone

The secrets, from ages passed
Written, in the stone to last
Read it, really, really fast
Because it may end up
Another thing in the past

Simply Stones

I made a pile
A pile of rocks
Rocks cleaned clear
Clear as the day

Ancient Stone

Chiseled in stone
With fingers to the bone
By the ancient architects
Now left laying in neglect

Water and Stone

Fire and brimstone
Water and rock
Elements well known
So this,
Shouldn’t come as a shock:

Pour the water
On the fire
It will simmer down,
Eventually

Stepping Stone

A leap of faith in one go
Into the great unknown
Follow the grey brick road
To where ever it may flow

Shine for The Daily Post

An unusual event
Over suburbia manifested
A late afternoon halo effect
Painted a glowy silhouette

The sun was rising
Over the horizon
Surely, a reason
For celebration
Especially here
In this season!
