RE: Day 495: 5 Minute Freewrite: Wednesday - Prompt: saxophone
You will be shocked to hear that I love this!
First, "My mother's best advice to me was 'Never date a musician'" - LOL!
And the scary stranger with the black bag that contains, not a gun, but... a sax! You remind me of so many incidents in my own life. But I will stop with the anecdotes. I love your disclaimer *this is NOT my entry to the freewrite challenge--ha! You rebel! You iconoclast! Welcome to the club
I spent the entire day working on that damn prompt. Almost didn't publish, but decided to hit that (effing) button anyway and go to sleep. Woke up and liked the thing.
Such a trip, this writing thing. Thank you for your effusive support!
You're welcome! I'm glad you decided to publish. I love seeing the ideas that play out in a writer's mind and which ones live to see the light of day, which ones stay locked in the writer's head. You let yours out for a brief romp - I'd love to see more of that! And to answer your other question, no, I don't write poetry. It's waaaay too hard for me. Pablo Neruda is who I'd most like to write like if I could. Simple words, put together in ways that stir. Mary Oliver, too. Ted Kooser. Thanks for all your kind words.
