Thanks so much, Joy! I started out with writing fiction when I was very young. I started at Substack here in March and it was all non fiction, then last summer I experimented with poetry. Now I’m hooked
Great writing and whether a dream or not , it is a great story that those pics help tell . Along with your words ,Jane . Love it it was fantastic .Hugs and peace to you
Thanks so much, Carolyn! I experimented a little as this isn't my usual type of post. I originally wanted a home for my black and white photos then I realized they could tell a story
Thanks so much! I always feel like I'm taking away from the true artists and photographers when I see it that way. My mom was an artist and an art teacher. I've always admired that quality.
Not all all. Honestly, that’s why we are here because a lot of Artist feel the same way and it’s not true. Everybody has a canvas to use. Not all artist use an actually canvas. Would love to see some of your mom’s work if you’re interested in sharing.
Years ago, my wife and I were at Sanibel Island, Florida. We got up early one morning before daylight to search for shells along the beach during high tide. When the sun came up, we looked around and didn't see anything familiar. We started walking in the opposite direction but during the darkness didn't realize how far we had walked. When we returned to the condo we showered and got back in bed. Next time we decided to use a timer to tell us when to go back.
I felt like I was right there with you!
Thanks, Darcy!!
Beautiful to stroll with you
Thank you
Thanks Prajna for joining me!
Wow! Beautiful rhyming lines and vivid description.
Of your dream and imagination.
Thanks so much, Joy! I appreciate you stopping by to read my post and comment
You're welcome, Jane. I believe you've an innate talent for writing poetry. You must explore it more.

You're welcome. I was hooked to your poem.😝 What made you start writing poetry?
Thanks, Joy! Not sure. I wrote one last summer and started to add imagery and making it rhyme here and there and I was hooked.
Really? I did the same. Started rhyming words and it became something. This was the first one. https://substack.com/@joydeepbiswas/note/c-75715619
Great story and the photos fit perfectly, Jane!
Thanks so much, Rod! @artstack got me hooked on using my photos again. Creating is awesome. Now back to my paying job
Wow, this story is really gripping.
Simple, linear, effective, sometimes predictable, but it never leaves you until the end.
Very good, Jane.
Thanks so much, Riccardo! Maybe, I’ll try something like this again. Not my usual type of writing
Incredible pics !
But that shadow…very very creepy.
Hey!! Don't insult my shadow like that. My shadow is cool 😄 🤣
I know. Maybe creepy is cruel 🙄 You have a nice shadow ! 😄
Maybe more like eerie ? 🤔
It is a great pic though !
Lol! Thanks Ken!
Great writing and whether a dream or not , it is a great story that those pics help tell . Along with your words ,Jane . Love it it was fantastic .Hugs and peace to you
Thanks so much, Mitch! A dream, imagination or reality you decide ;). Hope you are doing well. I appreciate you stopping by to comment
Thanks for taking me on this journey, Jane. Delightful!
Thanks so much, Mary! I'm enjoying your book. Excellent character development.
You may not think you are an artist, but you create art with your words that delight us. I loved what you wrote here!
Thanks so much, Nick!! I truly appreciate it!
This is just such a wonderfully constructed piece! The photos really draw you into the narrative too 🌸
Thanks so much, Carolyn! I experimented a little as this isn't my usual type of post. I originally wanted a home for my black and white photos then I realized they could tell a story
You’re an artist!!! We will keep screaming that. Well done!
Thank you!! I don’t see it, I know I’m a writer. It was so much fun creating this though
Writing is art! Photography is art! Poetry is art. You captured all there in this. You’ll see it one day.

Absolutely with my mom’s work. We all have a canvas to use. Love that!!

Sanibel Island sounds beautiful and a nice walk. Sometimes you forget how far you walked. What a cool adventure though. Thanks for sharing!
I know, right? Part of my Liminal photography. I took it at a foggy night at the shore last year
Thanks so much, Mike!
