Welcome to my #last100dayproject!
What are you focusing on for the remainder of 2023?
There are 83 days left of the year 2023.
You can begin today! I give you permission!
What do you want to make a priority for the remainder of the calendar year?
How are you feeling? Are you able to be consistent with a project or do you find yourself changing your mind?
If you are pulled and inspired by several ideas why not try a project for a week to try it out? You could write one line for a week to develop a poem by the end of the week/month/designated period of time.
Today’s prompt:
Today’s prompt is inspired by the October theme of Centered through Sarah Selecky’s Writing School. It has been the theme for October for the last several years.
I see a lot of things as a writer about shadow work. Shadow work is often referred to the factors of yourself that you do not like and how to accept them.
This can also mean the literal shadow that is on surfaces when the sun is shining on you. Or Peter Pan!
What image or memory comes to mind when you think of shadows?
I invite you to search your notebooks and drives for the prompt word and see what drafts you have that you can resurrect and revise.
What will you write today?
A list of places to see shadows
What is a metaphor you can create with shadow as a component?
A memory of a shadow
One sentence containing the word shadow
Maybe you start a conversation with a stranger about the word and that is the story you write. Whatever you choose - have fun!
Happy writing!
I invite you to leave a comment even if you are just reading and not doing a project! Just say hello so I know you are out there! You belong simply because you are here.
I would love to hear about your progress on your projects too!!

**NOTE**
I do not share drafts of work online because most publications considered this published. You are more than welcome to share your piece in the comments, an excerpt, a link to your blog/Substack, or an update.
I hope for the comments to be a community for us to share these wins.
