Welcome to my #last100dayproject!
There are 99 days left in 2023.
For the last 100 days of 2023, I invite you to join me and try on my practice.
Each day for the remainder of the year I will share a writing prompt and then encourage you to begin a new piece of writing with an image, use an old piece of writing of your own, and use the prompt.
Or, if you’d rather, you can just write to the prompt or create your own last 100 day project.
I would love to hear about your progress on whatever project you want to begin!
Today’s prompt:
What image comes to mind when you think of kaleidoscope?
Search your notebooks and drives for the kaleidoscope and see what old words you have that you can resurrect and revise.
Will you write about one kaleidoscope? Does it have magic? What does a scene look like if it is in pieces? What does the overall picture look like?
Maybe you will write one sentence about a kaleidoscope.
Whatever you choose - have fun!
Happy writing!
**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 or an update.
I hope for the comments to be a community for us to share these wins.

"kaleidoscope - kalos | eidos | skopos - beautiful | shape | watcher"
Knowing beauty lives on, evolving in people
And in the world we inhabit,
Likely means we know beauty when we see its shape.
Ed Sheeran’s in love with the angles and lines living
In his imagination as music.
Dancing between dreams and waking life and memory
One eye always looks for a pattern
So we can find resonance, feeling
Challenges to twist and turn our viewpoint
Over and over in infinite revolutions.
Play within the shifting landscapes
Each kaleidoscopic self holds, and be seen.
