Good morning, all. An old friend here, checking in from The Dungeon, about to start my writing day. Hoping to put the finishing touches on a short story today and self-publish it to Amazon.

I retired Jan 1, 2019, so just over a year ago. Have been trying to figure out what the new normal is and have been writing a lot—just not poetry. Poetry no longer comes to me, either by inspiration or perspiration. In the past ten years I've written maybe a dozen poems, mainly haiku, cinquains, and one villanelle. My writing has been in prose, and I have about 30 items self-published, 18 of these being book-length. One of those is my only poetry book, Daddy-Daughter Day.

I don't know that I'll be around a lot, but now that I got in (by trial and error on user names and passwords) I won't be a total stranger.

Best Regards,
NDG

It's been three years since your "Checking In"  Maybe this time more riders/writers will return  --smile--

Nas: "Feels like stepping back in time, returning here" --- yes! Really! --- and further back you go in the pages, it gets very nostalgic for me. Especially the Retreat posts.

Hello NDG, I'm glad to see that another member has gotten in!  I lost my password some time back, then Norm sent out the emails (that was a while ago now) and I was able to get back in again.  But now most of the members have gone.  Hopefully, it will get moving again!   

I recognize your name so I'm sure I've read your work here before.  My husband just retired so I can understand your new navigation process really well.   I hope to read something from you here soon Smiley
