Poetry Project Complete
I started the Nightwish Poetry project in November 2012, and I finished it in June 2015. All eight albums have been explored as cut out and cross out poems. I’ve also started a poetry compost and fiction compost document to keep track of my writing scraps. Maybe one day they will be polished pieces.

Nightwish
I finished the fourth Nightwish album (“Century Child”) for the cut out poetry project. I was lucky enough to see them perform the newest album, “Endless Forms Most Beautiful.” Meeting Troy, Marco, and Tuomas was exciting, since I’ve been a fan for three years.

Poetry Project Update
I finished the third Nightwish album for my poetry project, and I’ve made progress with my love poetry project.

The second day of Winter Wheat sessions was also successful. I attended a session about rejection with Laura Maylene Walter. I’m inspired to attempt 250 submissions in …
Memorizing Poems
I did memorize poems years ago, but I don’t remember those now. Since I do write poems, it’s about time to commit some poems to memory. The ones I want to focus on are: When I have fears that I may cease to be–John Keats The Reckoning–Theodore Roethke My Papa’s Waltz–Theodore Roethke The Waking–Theodore Roethke Snake–Theodore …
