new exercise
So I'm limping along as far as NaNo is concerned. I noticed not too long ago that I was resisting in direct response to the amount of internal pressure I placed. I need to get to a place where I say to myself "I get to write a poem today" instead of "I have to".
Leafing through a lit journal today, I had the idea to reverse the literal meaning of each individual word, thus coming up with a vastly different poem than the one I was reading. So far, this seems to be a valuable vein to mine, though it's not as simple as I would have imagined. I'll post the first fruit of this labor as soon as I'm finished transliterating.
How go your writing goals?
