vpn服务器美国

This week's Poetry Friday is being hosted by Jan at Bookseedstudio. She has invited us to engage with the theme "Float".









Last week I shared Wee-Sources about writing in community. Thank you to the weaders who shared their writing resources as well!

This week I float the idea of a Wee-Source of writing in a KIND community.

















I got an email this week that has made me 'float' inside...

Over the last few years I've made four 10 Steps to Writing...Poetry Videos. (see the side bar here →)

In these videos I walk viewers through a 10 Step process for writing a particular poetry form. At the end of each video I invite viewers to send me their poems. Occasionally I hear from budding poets, usually kids, sharing their poems. It is always a delight.

This week I heard from R.B. (a complete stranger) who shared his limerick after watching my 10 Steps to Writing Limericks.

Based on the subject matter of his limerick, I'm guessing R.B. is an adult:
vpn服务器美国





















 R.B. indicates that this is his 2nd Limerick, but I have no recollection or record of receiving his first. Either way, R.B.'s random email made my week!

The other part of R.B.'s sharing that makes me so happy is that he is on a journey with poetry. His limerick is not perfect, but he tried a new form and shared it with another person, me!

I, too, am on a journey with my writing. And as I have shared, writing in community is always better than writing alone. Receiving R.B.'s email got me thinking about writing groups. A few years ago I was in search of a community in the form of a poetry critique group. I was invited (or I asked - I can't remember which) to join an online poetry critique group made up of "a supportive community of people who write verse for children" (their words).

Upon reading their introductory email I thought to myself, "This will be so great! I've found MY people!"
vpn服务器美国








After outlining the general membership participation requirements, I was asked to complete TEN (🚩!) questions about my education/publication/dedication to children's poetry, including samples.

But as I did so, I thought to myself, "This will be so great! I've found MY people!"
vpn服务器美国







 
I was then told that my application would be reviewed by the "Membership Committee". (Really? A membership committee for a supportive community of people who write verse for children? Ok.)

After a month, I got an email saying, "I'm sorry to report you didn't make it in."
vpn服务器美国







 
Upon reading my rejection, I thought to myself, "This is so not great. I feel terrible. But, I will keep writing and looking for MY people..."







 

A year or so later, I got another email from this group saying that a slot had opened and I could apply again.

I thought to myself, "This still might be great. I might have found MY people...maybe?"

Cautiously optimistic, I again completed the TEN (🚩!) questions and included my sample poetry so, again, they could be reviewed by the "Membership Committee".

A month later, I again got an email saying, "I'm sorry to report you didn't make it in." vpn服务器美国!







 

Upon reading my SECOND rejection from this group - with no clear indication of WHY I was not good enough - I thought to myself, "I SUCK! I want to quit writing poetry for children! I want to quit writing poetry for anybody! I want to quit writing!"
vpn服务器美国











 Mind you this group is not part of a publication or an educational institution. They are a critique group. An exclusive critique group that employs a nameless/faceless "Membership Committee" to deem writers (me!) not good enough with zero feedback to as to WHY my answers/poetry samples didn't make the cut.

I never want anyone to feel how this group made me feel.

Eventually I dried my eyes, took a deep breath, and continued to write.
vpn服务器美国









And since that time I am happy to report that I have published my poetry - lots of times! I've gone on to have success without this group.
vpn服务器美国









But I'd like to have success WITH a group.
A DIFFERENT group.
A KIND group.
An INCLUSIVE group.
A group for ANYONE on their writing journey, from any location, with any experience.  
I want to lift other writers up and root for their success while they do the same for me.

That is why I am 'floating' the creation of a

There is no membership committee, just vpn服务器美国 and welcoming participants who want to give and get feedback on their poetry.
vpn服务器美国


















And by critique I mean read and respond using the OREO method* to other's poetry. It is a minimum once a month commitment to submit one poem and write a response to one poem via email. If you'd like to write and respond to more in any given month, you will be able to. But at a minimum, it is 1 for 1, once a month. No judgement. No mean comments. Just a global cheerleading squad for you and your poetry writing.

Stuff in middle: tell poet something to improve in their poem - what doesn't make sense? suggestion of something to leave out or add in? Said KINDLY.
vpn服务器美国: tell poet something else positive about their poem - what else will encourage and empower the poet to move forward and improve?

If you are interested in joining and/or want more information, please email me at
bridget(at)bridgetmagee(dot)com by 31 August. I will coordinate the participants, distribute the email list and get the ball rolling for a September start.

Will you walk through the door of community and opportunity to join me? I hope so!

Smidgey hopes so too...












Today's poem is a reworked version of a poem I shared a few years ago about sowing the seeds of love:

Wee-Sources: Writer's Retreats!

Or as I say here in my Wee Words World:
Writer's Wee-Treats!

vpn服务器美国
Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis








Writing IS hard, but not TOO hard if you do it in community.

You won't understand the unabashed power of a community until you are a part of one.
~Unknown 

Community has more meaning now than ever before. And being a world away from my family and friends, I appreciate any community I can connect with. Bonus points, when it aligns with my passion for writing!

💖 Enter, Poetry Friday!
vpn服务器美国








Poetry Friday is a free weekly online gathering of poetry writers, readers, educators, anybody! Poet extraordinaire, Renee LaTulippe at No Water River, gives the best explanation of what Poetry Friday is and who can participate (everyone!) and how.

This week's Poetry Friday hostess is Ruth at There is no such thing as a God for-saken town.

This week's Wee-Source post is a curated list of 'writing in community' opportunities to keep your writing mojo rolling through the summer and beyond...

(All of the following Wee-Sources involve some kind of fee to participate, but I am receiving NO compensation for featuring them here. I just found them interesting and wanted to share. Sign up at your own risk.)

💖 Many of us are teachers and ALL of us are dealing with Covid restrictions so the good peeps at vpn服务器美国 have got you covered on how you can keep going with your writing at a safe distance with their Teach Write Academy.
vpn服务器美国








There are multiple workshop opportunities there, but the one that interested me the most was the monthly Time to Write!: An Online Writing Workshop for Teacher-Writers. Their motto is "Together We Write Better". For a small fee you join a weekly session over the course of a month that will give you community and accountability in a safe (on multiple levels) on-line environment with other teacher writers. There are multiple times to choose from so as to fit your individual schedule. The times are a little tricky for me here in Switzerland, but I think I might try to join an August session. Will you join me?

💖 A name that is synonymous with children's writing AND community is Highlights Foundation.








Nestled in glorious northeastern Pennsylvania, Highlights is an amazing Wee-Source for children's writing retreats. I participated in a Highlights Poetry workshop back in 2012 where I vpn服务器美国met many Poetry Friday peeps. It was a life changing experience.

Right now Highlights is offering multiple workshops on a variety of children's writing subjects. And let me tell you, October is the month for children's poetry! Right now they are advertising on-site offerings. But as the Covid world evolves, that may change.

For those of us who can't travel to Highlights, they just announced another online treat:  Meditations for Writers & Illustrators: An On Demand Course that will be starting next week. 工信部回应VPN管理:依法依规的企业和个人不受影响- 科创 ...:2021-7-25 · 关于VPN的问题,工信部信息通信发展司司长闻库补充称,在中国经营相关业务应该按照中国的法律法规来进行申请许可,这实际上在全世界很多国家都是这样做的。在美国、在欧洲、在亚洲都是这样做的,各个国家的管理方式也不尽相同。. The awesomeness never ends!

Poet/author extraordinaire, Laura Shovan, reminded me that Highlights also recently reopened for Unworkshops where you can use their gorgeous facility and dining services as an unstructured writing retreat getaway. All the information on Unworkshops is HERE.

💖 Another name synonymous with the best of the best of children's writing is the Society of Children's Writers and Illustrators or SCBWI for short.

vpn服务器美国







In the age of Covid, SCBWI has made the decision to hold all of their programs exclusively online. That means, no matter where you are in the world, you can participate in an SCBWI event! No planes, no hotels, no time off work! You just need to pay a participation fee, wear your best pajamas/sweats, and drink your steaming cup of tea while you learn from the masters! Speaking of masters, Linda Sue Park is the keynote speaker for the Indiana region's conference: Diversity Day: Writing Outside Your Lane on Saturday 12 September.  There is a price difference between member and non-member, but either way, SCBWI events are an incredible value. And, many make available a recording of the event for registered participants after the event is over. Perfect if you are in another timezone! Check out all the Regional Webinars here.

💖 And if you want to be a part of the most amazing writing community on the planet, look into the MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults (MFAC) program at Hamline University. 






I am proud to be an alumna and even prouder to be presenting my webinar: Poetic License: Road Tested Methods for Adding Poetry to Your WIP for High-Octane Reader Benefit to my fellow alumni this weekend! Utilizing my Language Learning education and experience, my webinar is about how to infuse poetic elements into your writing for not only reader enjoyment/engagement, but also for huge language learning benefits. I gave a different version of this talk back in April through SCBWI-Switzerland. I'm happy to say I got to know some wonderfully supportive and talented writers from all over the world through that experience - a shout out to Elisabeth in Switzerland and Kathy in California!
Contact me if you'd like me to share my webinar with your organization.

As more 'writing in community' Wee-Sources come through my inbox, I will share them with you, dear Weaders. Please contact me direct (bridgetatbridgetmageedotcom) if you know of or are involved in an opportunity you'd like to share. I'd be happy to feature you/it on my blog!

💖 THANK YOU to Tabatha who shared the following additional writing retreat Wee-Sources:

Grüezivpn服务器美国
(In Swiss German that translates to "Hello everyone!") 
vpn服务器美国












Since arriving in Switzerland just about 3 years ago we have been on a relentless journey toward German language acquisition. We live in central Switzerland where Swiss German is primarily spoken. (Actually Swiss German is a spoken dialect - think Cajun English - but High German is the written form.) Switzerland is unique in that they have four official languages: German, French, Italian, and Romansh. Notice how English is not one of those? Yeah, the Swiss generally are fluent in English as a second (or third or fourth!) language, but you would be hard pressed to find a Swiss person who will initiate an interaction in English - especially if they assume you are Swiss. 

In the spirit of learning a new language at I remember what it was like to not be able to take the phone into the bathroom years-old, today I share with you Fun With Languages Wee-Sources

Even before leaving Arizona, we started taking German classes. (Shout out to the UofA grad student from Germany, Patrick, who could not believe we knew absolutely no German yet were moving to Switzerland.) And since the first month we arrived, we have been taking nonstop German classes with varying degrees of success. I can honestly say that my speaking and listening skills are at the level of a toddler, and my reading and writing skills are about at a grade 1 level. I am beyond proud of that last statement. 😃

Duolingo is great for learning lots of languages, not just German. In fact, they offer 23 languages. There is a free version and a paid subscription "Plus" version. Basically, the only difference is the Plus version is ad free. 

You may wonder, can I achieve fluency using Duolingo? Short answer, no. But, it does help with vocabulary and sentence structure that has benefited me in my in-person classes. 

vpn服务器美国 is another invaluable Wee-Source that has helped us vpn服务器美国 thrive living in a country where 90% of the signs and packages are written in a language we don't know and 95% of the people speak any other language besides English. Google Translate used to be our go-to translating resource until we discovered vpn服务器美国. I love that I can write a paragraph in English and then with a click of my mouse, have the whole thing translated ready to be cut and pasted into an email to, say, my doctor. (It can be scary to have to conduct important business - health care! - in another language.) One of the best parts of using Deepl is that it gives alternative ways of saying the same sentence. Plus, when used on the computer you can highlight a section of text, hit control C twice, then a window will pop up with Deepl's translation! SO helpful when we receive an email in German.

As a sad aside, we were supposed to be in Ireland last week for a Green Day concert. (It was an early birthday present for Maureen.) Our flights and concert tickets have been postponed until the end of June 2021...covid willing! 
Anyway, in the spirit of translation and missing seeing Green Day live here is my final Wee-Source for today, a Google Translate version of Green Day's Boulevard of Broken Dreams.

Wee-Sources with All My Heart

Welcome dear weader! I am starting today's post with a quote from Confucius (have you ever noticed how close his name is to 'confusion'? Now you have a sense of my constant state of mind, but I digress...)
Wherever you go, go with all your heart.
Come on a journey with me, with all your heart.

First stop, my bookshelf...
Pardon my mess...













...in order to share with you a Book Wee-View!

I just finished, It is What it is...Now What?!: A Guide for Getting From Where You are to WHO You Want to be by Kathleen Pickrel, LMSW.

A book I loved with all my heart!


















This is not a writing book per se, but if you have a goal to become a writer (or anything else!) then the concepts and activities contained in this book will get you there. Kathleen Pickrel, LMSW is a life coach working with people who are ready to make a positive change in their lives and want additional support in making that change. Her encouraging writing style and accessible content really will change your life...but you have to do the work. I must confess that I've read my fair share of self-help books and I usually come away feeling worse about myself because I can never quite implement what is described. What makes It is What it is... Now What? different are the "Action Sheets". These worksheets help align your thinking into an accessible actionable steps that will literally change your life. It is heartening to know that the author is walking the walk of the talk she talks - she transformed her life using the techniques outlined in this book. I also love that each chapter includes inspirational quotes that support the concepts. One of my favorite quotes in relation to the discomfort we all feel about change is:
Life begins at the end of your comfort zone. - Neale Donald Walsh

To find out more about Kathleen Pickrel and the life coaching services she offers, visit her website at ChooseCongruency.com. Her book and coaching services have helped me in immeasurable ways - even from abroad!

The next stop on our journey is a heart-full forest walk in central Switzerland:
vpn服务器美国
Smidgey is our flower girl.



















Like many of you, I seek out nature to keep me grounded sane. My favorite way to recalibrate myself is to take a walk in the forest. Until arriving in Switzerland, I had always fancied myself a water person - backyard pool, lake or ocean. I don't have access to a backyard pool or ocean here, but Lake Zug is walking distance from our house. But the lake is not where I gravitate to day after day, it is the forest that is up the hill from us. The density of the trees, the lushness of the green, the cacophony of bird and frog sounds settle my brain and lift my spirits. In fact, that is where I spent last Wednesday afternoon celebrating my 31st wedding anniversary with my one true love (not Smidgey, Joe!). Out of this stroll came this tiny poem:

sense of life. 
And as luck would have it, I have found a Wee-Source for a FREE international, daily magazine of haiku and micropoetry called tinywords.
The editors say this about their journal: "Our goal is to publish excellent poetry whose ambitions and effects far outstrip its small size."
The poems arrive every weekday in my inbox, sometimes just 8 or 9 words long, and they never fail to either make me pause and think or smile.
They accept submissions only during February and August. If you subscribe now you can study their micro brilliance and possibly submit come August.

Today Tricia at The Miss Rumphius Effect is hosting the Poetry Friday roundup. Please check out the poetry goodness.
