Snapper

Hello, poking my head out of the void to say I hope everyone is doing well and that your creative projects are flowing smoothly ^.^

I was active years ago and have been feeling nostalgic over the past few days haha. Glad to see the forums still alive and kicking!

@ellette-giselle
Yes we’ll its not every day that the court jester turns up at the gates after being missing for 6 years and everyone just excepts it and let’s him in…
 

@raxforge

God made you special! And he loves you very much!

Especially with him being a kid when he vanished. It’s doubtful anyone could recognise him. But stranger things…[Read more]

Hello there…

This is me reappearing after 5 plus years…

@theducktator

Thanks for letting me know! Looking into it now.

@whalekeeper

Yay!!! You are alive! ngl was getting a little worried there lol.

Exactly… It definitely takes a few magical capabilities to be a forum moderator. 😅 Especially when the evil spam bots are constantly trying to take down precious Whaley. 😤 Not on my watch!

Okay okay. I think I might have fixed the problem?

For some reason, the WordPress system was flagging everyone’s posts as spam. Especially dear Whaley. 😭😭😭

If you are still having trouble posting let me know. Also, I’m going to be on here a lot more frequently so I’ll be able to nip the problem in the bud before it ever gets too out of hand like…[Read more]

@whalekeeper @theducktator @grcr @loopylin @keilah-h @everyoneexperiencingissueswiththesite

Hi guys! So sorry for being mia recently and missing your posts and struggles with all these glitches!!

Imma try to get to the bottom of all these issues and get back to you once I make some progress. Continue to let me know of any other issues that arise…[Read more]

@mineralizedwritings I see I see, cool cool ^^

@mineralizedwritings Aw thanks haha! Are you planning on reading it?

I love the imagery the words create! Your style is very different from mine so I don’t know how helpful I can be, but I’ll try! 🙂

What meter are you using? (I’m not very familiar with meter so I have to ask.)

The rhymes are slant rhymes I think? They’re not exact. But it’s pretty consistent until it gets to the last stanza. I don’t think that…[Read more]

I love the freeverse (that isn’t freeverse) poem! 🙂 Absolutely! Tag me when you post that poem that’s giving you grief. @koshka

Goodness me, I thought I replied to you ages ago, @koshka! Sorry! Now that I think about it, I went down a rabbit hole of web searching and trying to figure out what sort of poem it was, and I think I started to write a reply but must’ve never posted it.

Essentially, it’s a rhyming poem, but not a metered one. Some sources consider it free verse,…[Read more]

Now that I think about it, I’m really stuck on the edits so I might as well share what I’ve got here and see if you guys can’t help me get unstuck. I’ve made a few small changes that you may notice, but the main thing that I’m struggling with is settling on an ending.

I’ve written several endings that all have slight variations in words and…[Read more]

Thanks, @karissa-chmil! This is definitely one of my poems that I find myself going back to a lot and rereading. The atmosphere and imagery of it really draw me in, and I like pondering the meaning of it. 🙂

One of the edits I’m considering is possibly connecting some of the shorter, broken lines in the part of the poem you mention. It’s supposed…[Read more]

Thanks, @koshka! I love the layered meanings of words too. It was funny because I drafted it so hastily and impulsively that I didn’t even realize the full depth of meaning I had woven into the poem–until I was reading and rereading while editing. It was intentional and yet much of it was subconsciously done.

I just let all of the mixed-up…[Read more]

Thanks, @koshka! That would be great. 🙂

I wrote this poem after my uncle’s passing. He was self-taught on guitar and left a few of the instruments behind (as well as many people who loved him).
