About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write. Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground. Kiya's gift. I love it!
Off the Cuff / My Other Journal

Restrictions: None
End of November
Finished with the NaNoWriMo novel.
My word count:
WdC Count: 59465
Ms Word:59599
NaNo Count: 59577
The whole thing was pure masochism, and I had to finish it before the 20th, due to a birthday and Thanksgiving, but I went over a few days. I don't think I ever wrote this much in such short a time.
Did I say masochism? Wait till next November, and I'll prove it once more. *Laugh*
