Colleen sponsors a weekly syllabic poetry challenge, called #TankaTuesday, on wordcraftpoetry.com where participants learn how to write traditional and current forms of syllabic poetry. A published author, Colleen is also an editor of “Word Weaving, a Word Craft Journal of Syllabic Verse, also found on wordcraftpoetry.com. Colleen’s mission is to bring the craft of writing syllabic poetry to anyone who thinks they can’t be a poet.
Recently, she created the Double Ennead, a 99-syllable poetry form for the Carrot Ranch literary community at carrotranch.com. Colleen’s poetry has appeared in various anthologies and journals including “Hedgerow-a journal of small poems,” and “Poetry Treasures1 & 2” a collection of poetry from the poet/author guests of Robbie Cheadle on the “Treasuring Poetry” blog series on “Writing to be Read."
Colleen published “Word Craft: Prose & Poetry, The Art of Crafting Syllabic Poetry,” which illustrates how to write various syllabic poetry forms used in her Tanka Tuesday challenges; and a collection of poetry, flash fiction, and short stories called, “Fairies, Myths & Magic: A Summer Celebration,” dedicated to the Summer Solstice. She contributed a short story called “The Changeling,” in the “Ghostly Rites Anthology 2020,” published by Plaisted Publishing House.

Is Stevie Ray one of your older or younger grandkids? He looks very happy with his cookie. So sweet!
Go to Ronovan’s site and read (follow the links) on how to write Haiku in English. It is all about syllables: 5 in the first line, 7 in the second, 5 in the last line…
haiku is very interesting prose. My sisters brother in law ( her childs fathers brother) is a professional writer , here in australia. and he is very good at that. Paul Mitchell is his name. google it to read some of his stuff. Anyway your grandchild looks very cheeky and adorable.
If I had something higher than A RONOVAN’S CHOICE! I would give it. But then you are part of my Lit World Interviews. Not sure that is an honor but it means something to me to trust you that much. So will put that and the ARC together.
