So glad you have signed up to receive the For Random Learning Comes Newsletter! This is the sixty-seventh edition. Previous editions can be found on the blog's Newsletter page. I send it out weekly, so if you don't get my email on Saturday morning, please let me know! (Check your junk and spam folders too.) My five latest posts are at the end of this newsletter, latest first. *** I somehow failed to send this out on the seventh and I'm just now discovering my error. So we have a Monday newsletter for a change. It's just as well that my timing is off, since I plan to be out of commission during the month of November while I attempt yet again to participate, at least informally, in NaNoWriMo, National Novel Writing Month. Perhaps this time I will produce the requisite 50,ooo words. You'll be the first to know! This week's poem is a writer's lament, in this case a writer of rhymes. He or she feels very passé in an age of media and fast moving entertainment. Mere words that sound good together do not get much attention, today. Contrary to fashion, the poem rhymes. Of course. Hope you enjoy it, and that it does not discourage you from putting pen to paper or fingers to keyboard. We must not allow fashion, no matter how seemingly entrenched, to dictate what we do! Andrea *** If you haven't signed up for my newsletter yet, I hope you will consider doing so. And tell your friends! There's a blue signup form on every page. You can also follow my Twitter account, @AndreaLedew,which posts my previously published blogposts, poems and flash fiction. This will give you an idea of just how much mischief I've been up to over the past five or six years. Thanks again for your continued readership and support. It means a lot to me. Have a great week!
