Colleen’s Weekly #Poetry Challenge – #Haiku #Tanka #Haibun: HEAT & CONFUSE
Colleen’s prompt words this week are heat and confuse.
I reckon I’ll write a passionate Tanka this week! Why? I’m feeling happy having just set up my author page on Amazon: Amazon Buying Link… for my debut novel The Curse of Time – Book 1 – Bloodstone, even though it was stressful setting it up….
Yes, formatting isn’t my favourite job. It made me confused, hot, headache prone and more than a bit irritable, so let’s have some passionate poetry to make me feel less stressed! Lol…

Keep an eye out for my next post – my book cover reveal!!! Yippee!!!

I’m on my 876th revision of my first! I consider it my workbook. It’s unfortunate that I keep learning new techniques. Ha! I’m pulling the plug soon. Kudos to you.

It’s taken me countless revisions and years to get to this point. Being a writer is such hard work! And this is meant to be a trilogy! My God I will exhaust myself in the process. Maybe two books will suffice? Lol…

I know what you mean! I mentioned the same thing to Danny last night. He said, “Maybe all of your books should be standalone novels.” Thing is, if I had started five years ago, knowing everything I know now, it wouldn’t have taken so long. We’ll see.

Setting anything up–like your Amazon page–makes me a little crazy, too. You did it, though! Go you. You found the perfect outlet in a little love poetry. Very nice. Looking forward to the cover reveal!
