I promised I'd get back to read these and here I go beginning to catch up! At the outset let me say how impressive it is to undertake this challenge!

    Hi Karenina :)
    You've been busy!! Thank you so much x
    The challenge was a tough one... I often find that when I've made time to write, the words won't come, so having to find the time AND the words every single day was a challenge indeed!
    Anyway, I made it! LOL
    Thank you again, Debra x

Debra,
It seems that having a theme for these poems makes it easier to write 30 poems in 30 days.
Congrats on being named the recongnized writer of the month.

I truly enjoy ekphrastic writing, so I think your project idea will lead to a rich series of poems.

Looking forward to reading, and many thanks for sharing.

Your theme sounds so interesting, Debra. You did a great job introducing your book of poems to be. I like the rhyme scheme and the great picture. I look forward to seeing the others.
Best wishes in the contest.

Debra,

Fun! I love ekphrastic poetry, myself. I think it's awesome that a certain image or moment in time or even phrase that someone says can cause our brain cells to start partying in some brand new way. hahaha

This looks fun! Thanks!

    Hey! That's a much better name for what happens to us sometimes than WRITER'S BLOCK!

    Thanks - I may have to use that. hahaha

This is a famous picture by Escher, isn't it? I see a vase and two faces.

It will be a fun book to interpret these pictures and write Ekphrastic poems.

Well done and good luck.

    Thank you so much for your kind feedback :) I can see the faces and the vase in the picture too - I didn't know who it was by - I just like that you can look at it in different ways :D
    Best wishes, Debra

Interesting idea for your NaPoWriMo project. I look forward to learning a lot. Certainly your prologue picture is a master of fooling the eye. I didn't put my prologue as the contest entry (posted as what, wht, wherefore) the entry will be chapter 1 coming a bit later in the morning. Kate xx

    Hi Kate, I look forward to reading your work - thank you for signposting me to your prologue :)
    Thanks also for your feedback... I can't promise that you will learn much from anything of mine that you read, it's just personal interpretation of the art!
    Best wishes as always, Debra :) x
