If any of you read this blog on a semi-regular basis, you may remember that one of my goals for the New Year was to post weekly on Lamps and Mirrors.
Ha! Hilarious, aren't I?
So, I offer my deepest apologies for my long absence. Life has been rather hectic, and as you may be aware, my last post was about lacking a certain inspiration.
I plan to resume posting more regularly, but every week will most likely be an endeavor I will not be able to attain--notably with Poetry Fridays. I can write about writing on demand far more easily than I can write poetry on demand. Poetry really does require a certain attention to detail and nurturing that does not lend itself well to deadlines, which is part of the reason that most creative writing courses give you a drafting deadline for your poetry and then focus primarily on revision over a course of multiple class periods.
That being said, I do have a poem prepared for this Friday, but it may be the last Poetry Friday until I am once again taken over the poetic muse.
I do have multiple exciting topics planned for other posts, though. This weekend I'll be exploring my own take on the idea of "the willing suspension of disbelief." For future posts, I will be discussing some other articles that have been written about writing, as well as writing up a review of William Shakespeare's Star Wars: Verily, a New Hope.
(Go ahead. Let that title sink in for a moment. Let the pure, unadulterated nerdiness wash over you. Besides, it's not like I'm reviewing my sister's copy of Hamlet translated into Klingon.)
In conclusion, don't let my long absences dash all of your hopes for future posts.
Come back this Friday and Saturday and don't miss out on all the literary fun!
