Yes it’s true, a month’s worth of Creative Writing Prompts are starting tomorrow, the 1st of February! I jumped the gun a little yesterday, and the first prompt, which I will be showing on this blog tomorrow, the 1st of February, very much is to blame for the previous post. I was very excited and got mixed up with my days, yesterday. Under control again now though!
I’m going to explain it in a poem, which I’ll post on this blog site, for the big announcement tomorrow morning! There are no special prizes offered by me, not financial ones anyway. Connecting with other writers who love to write, and who also love to help others to write, that is a prize worth having, I say!
I am that writer and an informal teacher, and the thougth that other poets and writers may write some fantastic work, if they take part in any or all of these writing prompt challenges geiven here this month excites me and fills me with joy! So, if you love to write, or think you’re love to, then please log in here every day, if you can, see what the writing prompt for the day is, and write!
If you can’t log in every day, you can still take a look later, see what you think, and write when you have the time, and inclination. I’m going to try to write something new, in response to the prompts, every single day, and I hope I can write some fine poetry!
I hope the same thing for anyone else who takes part in this month of Prompts – together lets all make February Fabulous!
If you think ypu’d like to take part in this Fabulous Fun February, why not leave a comment here, and we can get to know a little bit about each other, and what, if anything, we wish to achieve.
I’ll get things started:
I am Carolyn Cordon, President of Adelaide Plains Poets, who meet every Thursday afternoon for a writing meeting, in a particular hotel in Gawler.
I have written and published eight books, three of them poetry collections, and I wish to have another, bigger poetry collection, later this year, or next year. (My most recent poetry collection was a chap book, with only 21 poems in it, all on one subject matter, and I plan for a larger and more broad-ranging collection for my next one.
I wrote my first decent poem in my early years of high school, then poetry fell off mostly, until I had a huge life challenge,and needed poetry again. After that, poetry and creative writing have taken over more and more of my life, and I love it!

Your turn know, please leave your own message, telling your poetry story!
Carolyn Cordon - Creative 
I am Marie Vonow, a member of the writing group of which Carolyn is president. When I was in primary school I had a few stories published in the Sunday Mail Possum’s Pages. During high school some of my poems were printed in school magazines. However, most of my poetry was written as a means of self expression, sometimes therapy and much of it was never shown to anyone else.
Since then I have written poetry from time to time. During the 18 years I lived in Whyalla I belonged to the Whyalla Writers’ Group and several of my poems and short stories were included in our anthologies. I have also had poems published in ‘Yellow Moon’,’Positive Words’, ‘Whyalla News’ and ‘The Senior’ newspaper.

Keep on pumping out those poems, Carolyn, and you’ll soon have enough for a larger collection — and prompts do help 🙂

Thanks John,
I’m very accustomed to responding to writing challenges because the writing groups I attend regularly do writing exercises, responding to prompts. And publicly committing to doing one every day, in February, well, I’ll have to do it!
