I was reading the thread and noticed Holly had written a poem. Therefore, let me use her name.

Hopes she not to be a marketer
Only to find she must,
Leaving behind her comfort zone,
Listening to her publisher at last,
Yet she'll find the pain worthwhile.

And, yes, when she bobbles with typos, they are doozies.

Thank you for writing the most beautiful poem about me

Mama said my poem was not acrostic because it was not about the word. So now I am writing a proper acrostic poem !

Mamta Aunty

My aunt is very nice,
And her daughter Jahnavi’s too,
Most of the time she calls me, her green eyed doll,
Talented
And pretty,

Always telling nice things,
Understanding too
Now I’m going
To stop this poem about
You!

The Poem on Mamta Aunty is by me. But it unknowingly came in Mama's name

Verbs, her stock in trade -
I
Visualize the scene,
Imagine the conflict,
And I am angry…sad…
No, outraged!

Zounds, woman -
Authors shouldn’t twist their readers,
Burden their souls with abject fear… It’s
Evil. Because it always… always…
Leaves us wanting more.

The word of the day was "irony." What can I say. I do still have some goosebumps on my right forearm from that character sketch you did the other day...

Folks, I tease Viv - I've known her for many years, and we've co-authored two books. She's an excellent writer. Horror, however, is really not her genre. Her fiction is engaging. It won't cause you to scream, rip off your spouse's arm, and throw it across the room if they take you by surprise while you're reading.

Ahh, now I really do feel honored.

And if you think the character sketch gave you goosebumps, wait until you read the book. It's next on my novel-to-be-written list.

Ashley is a Blondie with light green eyes,
Small in stature, ample in ambition.
Her shyness is a cover for a will
Like steel yet to be tempered in her still
Evolving sense of what will be her mission.
Years will yield the answer, harsh but wise.

Sitting quietly in the corner
He concocts art from pixels
And icons
His flights of fancy
Are tethered to the screen
Right in front of you.


a tribute to our brave designer!
