The second of my four poems to be accepted by Whispers and Echoes—Road to Nowhere—is published today.
Remember the road:
The road to nowhere;
Nowhere, where I go to dream …
See Whispers and Echoes for the full poem
Road to Nowhere was written for Crimson’s Creative Challenge #14, posted on crimsonprose 14th February 2019
Whispers and Echoes is an online journal that publishes flash-fiction of up to 100 words, and poems up to 10 lines (excluding blanks); see here to submit. It is chiefly edited by Sammi Cox, well-known and loved for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompts where she punishes us with impossible targets, and thus pushes us through the gates of inspiration.
Earlier issues of Whispers and Echoes can be seen on the Dreaming Spirit website.
Wonderful!
And congrats once again!

I thank you, Jen. Sometimes it comes to me. And sometimes I write micro-fiction. But I do prefer the poems.

When the inspiration takes. I don’t mean it slams into me. Sometimes I do have to work at it, at least the final tweak. But it starts with something that grabs me. An angle that tempts me in.
I think it’s the same thing with the novels. A meeting of disparate themes. And bang!

Inspiration takes us many places. You do a great job in both areas of expression. Your prompts started me into short stories and I’ll be eternally grateful for that Crispina. Hey! You gave birth to my Ladies LOL
