Hocus Pocus I have no focus. My brain has gone awry. The many thoughts, they run amok. No matter how much I try. Hocus Pocus I lost my focus. My brain is on full stop.

Writing Prompt: Blatant
https://media.giphy.com/media/xT5LMRMUMVHdk5oLHa/giphy.gif I didn't do yesterday's prompt because I am trying to not have any overtly political posts on this blog. Yesterday's prompt was "Marx". Nope, I am NOT going there, ever, on here. So... ...Blatant... Blatant, overt, in your face. Without cloaks or smoke and mirrors. Everything laid bare for all to see.

Writing Prompt: Twirl
As a self-published author, I can not tell you the number of times I have stared at my own novel and my brain drew a blank. I mean, you should know how your own story goes, right?

Writing Prompt: Unharmed

Writing Prompt: Meet Me There
https://media.giphy.com/media/XIqCQx02E1U9W/giphy.gif Yes, I missed yesterday, but yesterday was hubby's day off, and we got to spend time with the grandbabies. So, I think I can be forgiven?
