A Big Thank You, and a Little Poem

/ Marcia

I just wanted to thank each of you for making this #ExcerptWeek the best one, yet. To those of you who shared your work with us, my heartfelt thanks. I loved reading every single excerpt, even when I got too swamped to comment. To those of you who shared what you read here, you are the heart and soul of what The Write Stuff is all about. I love each and every one of you, contributers and sharers alike. (And a double hug for those of you who were both!)

Thought I would share a little poem from Summer Magic, which I wrote after defying the odds and publishing my first book. Those of you who have followed me for a while will recognize it, but I hope you won’t mind reading again. If I have anything of import to give you all, it’s this little bit of life philosophy. Enjoy. (But take it to heart.)

Attitude Really Is Everything

No!
Yes.
You can’t!
I can.
Why?
Why not?
It’s all wrong!
It’s all right.
You shouldn’t!
I should.
You won’t!
I will.
It could be bad!
It could be good.
Its’ too late!
There’s still time.
You’re too old!
I’m still here.
You did it!
I did.

And with that, consider #ExcerptWeek wrapped up until next time! Hope you  all enjoyed it as much as I did.

    • So glad you enjoyed the week, and discovered some new-to-you writers! Me, too!! And thanks on the poem. I had so many people (and some who should have known better) telling me I was being silly to think I could do this, for all the reasons in the poem. I just had to put it down on paper, short and simple though it is. Every now and then when I feel discouraged, I read it again. 😀

      Thanks for being part of #ExcerptWeek again, Mary, and I’m counting on you for next time, too! 🙂 ❤
