   About Good News Junkie


I love Prose. I love poetry, but prose has a freerer charm to it, and for years I've been stockpiling notes and lyrics and inspirational quotes. From all of these my work has tentatively emerged. I'm hoping it hasn't relied too much on any one source of inspiration..

The unwritten rule of poetry is that it should never be kept quiet, and whenever possible should be outspoken, not read to yourself.

So thats what I'm doing. And I'm really enjoying doing it. =D

Haha, sounds wonderful! I have the beautiful wand my aunt made me, and our choir did a Harry Potter song two years ago and decided that it called for thirty handmade robes. So I'll steal some of those and come join you!! Our show opens tomorrow night. Scary....we had two run-throughs today, the first one I kept messing up lines, but the second (the one they were actually filming) I did fairly well! A few voice cracks, but nothing that can't be ironed out before tomorrow. AND I got a friend to get our entire cast our own midnight showing of the movie Hairspray (which I have been waiting for YEARS to see!! I'm dressing up and everything!!)

So, I was just listening to some of your poetry again, and I wanted to let you know a) How beautiful your writing is and b) How gorgeous your accent is (I know, sooo American of me to say that). But it's true.

So when are we conspiring to sneak out of the country and meet somewhere? Because I'm starting to think that's our only option anymore. :-)
