So, to all my lovely readers... It's been a while since I was on here, but it has been one year exactly since I started up this blog! It seems crazy, but it has been a year since I first thought that a blog would be a good idea. And it turns out I was dead right!! So much has happened since then, and I am very pleased to say that I have fully completed the first draft of Emma Hood. I am extremely pleased with myself, and I will release the rest of the the story very soon, so keep an eye out for that. Until then, lovely reader, I will keep feeding you up with more juicy poetry and thick slabs of stories, and I promise I shall eventually complete some more of my stories. Don't forget to check out my Wattpad pages, under the same name, and I will keep writing. Happy Anniversary! Now let's go and eat cake.
Has anyone else been watching Bake-Off, while I'm thinking cake-y thoughts?
Never mind, here's some random poems to entertain you. You deserve it.
Reflections
Who is that? In the glass?
It's not me, and yet it
Is me...
That person. They copy me.
Think the same thoughts.
Dream the same dreams.
But... we are not the same.
For the glass-person is but an
Echo
Of me.
Of my being
Of what makes me
Me.
We are the same, just different.
Red coloured pencil
Scatters scribbles on paper
Sketching out a life.
What Pencil?
Which colour pencil shall I use today?
After all, I am writing the story
Of a person. But of course
They're aren't just
Any old person.
They are special.
So what colour should I use to illustrate their story
In words?
Perhaps red; for the action, and drama, and intensity of their life
Or blue; for the softness, the calm, the serenity of the ending
Yellow; after all, that is their favourite colour
Green; the forest, a place to hide from their past
Purple; luxurious, warming and pump
Or that teal pencil which is my own favourite colouring pencil
With the notches in the nib, and the chipped paint...
I know.
Grey. HB. The normal drawing pencil.
Why?
So you, dearest reader, can imagine the colour yourself.
Then it's yours.
Your story.
For you to enjoy.
COMMENT ABOUT: Well, it's been a busy year. What is your favourite of my stories/poems? And what would you like to see more of in the next year of my blogging "career"?
ReplyDeleteHey Katya sorry I haven't been here for a while, I love reading your poems, so I'd love to see more of them :)
DeleteHello again, Janet! Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy my poems. I shall be adding another one soon :)
DeleteOh, and have you been watching the Great British Bake Off?!
ReplyDeleteHey it's Chloe! I can't believe I haven't been on here since April, I only remembered about it tonight. I'm so sorry. It's been a really busy few months. So glad to hear you've kept it up for a whole year, no offence but I didn't think you'd manage to carry on writing so well. I did watch the bake off, well done Nadia!
ReplyDeleteHello Chloe! Don't worry about it, I appreciate that my readers do have lives to get back to every so often :)Thanks for your support, and I hope you enjoy my writing throughout the next few months.
DeleteHi, I'm Sophie and for such a long time I've been trying to look for an entertaining blog to read, and I'm so glad I've found yours! In 10 years time when you are a famous author I'll remember that I knew Katya Morrigan in the beginning!
ReplyDeleteHi Sophie, I'm glad you like my blog :) I do hope I become famous, but I doubt it - I seem pretty much incapable of finishing my writing! I have finished Emma Hood though, so look out for that here and on my Wattpad page.
