Although it will still be a while before Through the Nethergate is ready for publication (I am aiming for early September), I am so excited about the cover that I thought I would share it here and see what you all think of it. This is the blurb (which will help you understand the relevance […]
I was sure I had found you once,twice more... I've felt your arms around me felt your strength the heat of your heart Just a dream I've seen your eyes They're the color of the sea on a winter morning Your passion has held me enthralled me I give myself to you just to awaken to an empty room A dream I thought I saw your smile in passing I felt the electricity The same as my dreams You're out there I know it I feel it I feel you Copyright (C) 2019 Penny Wilson

Please enjoy this amazing poem written by a talented woman!
Depression is.. Using all your energy to shower A sink full of dishes Making up excuses to stay home Feeling worthless Crawling in bed at 4:00 p.m. Forgetting all your favorite things Putting on make-up to cover puffy eyes Depression is… Being “overly sensitive” Putting your phone on airplane mode For three days Being lonely […]
Do you get anxious when the well seems to have run dry? I do. I get nervous, antsy, anxious, etc., when I cannot write. Some days that damned blank page just seems to glare back at me in defiance!
I try to post something here several times a week. If I can’t, it really bothers me. It surprises me how much it bothers me. A friend of mine said, “We write because we must write“. I find this to be extremely accurate.
So what do you do when you’ve got that dreaded Writer’s Block? I have found that what seems to work for me is to simply step back and find a different point of view.
Let me give you an example.
I had an amazing photo prompt that I was trying to write a poem for. Nothing came. Well, that’s not true. Nothing postable came. I tried for days! I’d step away from it (which helps sometimes) and go back to it at a later time and try again. Nope. Didn’t work.
What I finally did was to look at different versions of this photo. I found one I liked and boom! About 15 minutes later, I had a poem that I would say is one of my best.
So try a different perspective. A different point of view. You might just be surprised at what comes from it!

Thank you for joining me on this journey! ❤ Penny
The king giver and taker of lives.
Sacred pledge.
Promise of bloodshed.
The blade a talisman.
Bearing witness to carnage.

I must breathe
I reach for the sunlight
but your cloying presence
blocks the light
Choking
Your immersion
well intended
reassuring yourself
My pledge
falls
on deaf ears
Love must be
nurtured
To grow
