    CHALLENGE: WHAT'S IN A PHOTO?

    What's with this thread? Are the challenges issued to test how chilled out our writing is? A snow battered tent, striped icebergs and now this.

    NOW AND THEN WHEN IT GETS VERSE....

    NO ILLUSIONS I am me, but I find I am also in you. I find in you those bits Of myself I hide from view. The traits I dislike in you Sound an echo within. The pettiness, the selfish pride The ego, all vain and bloated. The more I open my eyes To the world around me I see the shallowness that...

    NOW AND THEN WHEN IT GETS VERSE....

    The day slipped away from me And I let it go. I knew this is how it would be Because sometimes it was so. There were tasks to be done People to meet A house to maintain A family to feed! But when I saw a light mist Swirling in pale sunshine Light fluffy clouds sailing In a sky...

    Is there a problem with the VIEW count?

    And x is a variable, right?:) It's ok. I pointed out what I perceived as an error only because I like the site. I thought such an error would translate into incorrect statistics for the site as a whole.

    A Few Of Stiggy Says (poetry)

    Lovely. I read it over and over again. You have caught the feeling of 'oneness with all the worlds' that comes upon us when we gaze at the starry sky. Senses settle on something peaceful, My vision leads, scoping the beauty, The gentle realm beyond harkening, I visit and it becomes part of...

    CHALLENGE: WHAT'S IN A PHOTO - THE STORIES

    Thanks. Liked yours too. I've said it before and I'm saying it again, what I love about this exercise is the way we come up with totally different stories.

    Is there a problem with the VIEW count?

    After the recent software promotions, I think there may be a problem with the number of views getting registered. I noticed it in the thread 'Challenge: What's in a photo.' I'd posted a story, 'The Red Tent' three days ago. The view count for the thread was 215. (Yeah, I check the view count...
