I haven't posted for- OMG- how embarassing- but I have been productive.
Which begs the question- "How important is it to post regularly on Social Media?"
The truth is, I am not a big fan of Social Media, and my fear (excuse) has been that it is a procrastination technique (trap).
But one thing I do know- in 2022, I was published four times: Three poems made it into three anthology books for young readers published by Pomelo Books: What is a Friend?, Things We Wear, and Things We Feel, and my first collaborative poem, Fàilte, appeared in Spark 53.
This year is off to a good start: My poem made it into the newest Pomelo Anthology:What is a Family?
And two collaborative poems were published in Spark 54: Ojos de Dios and Hemispheres of Separation.
So the reality is, consistent activity- any activity- writing, participating in critique groups, working my online business, etc., will lead to results.
- Nothing happens in inertia. It is an empty place - at least for me.
- Creativity is a muscle: it must be excercised. Used.
- Activity is a habit. It must be developed in a conscious and methodical way.
Perhaps going forward in 2023 my posts will be about productivity and good habits. And to write and post consistently.
Thanks for visiting!
