  1. Loved the haiku (I favour the 5-7-5 format in English). The quote from Anne Bronte was a surprise; I’m 17,000 words into writing a story in which I’m trying to say what she said in just those13 words!

  3. Hi Monica. Thanks for the twitter ‘boost’ of my ‘power of words’ post. I just mentioned you (and an odd ‘coincidence’ re your Anne Bronte quote) in my latest post talking about my writing process and used your drawing of a rose – credited of course. I’ve got a mention of two Romanian ‘musica populara’ singers and string quartet in there. Our writers’ club is doing another ‘performance’ in a local library this coming Saturday so I’m just tidying up a children’s Easter story for that; I’ve tucked a fun haiku in that (and a limerick). Then I’ll be finishing my ‘long story’ thanks to Anne Bronte (did I tell you that I live only 10km or so from the Bronte village and visit frequently?).

    • Hey! Hi, my friend 🙂 I saw your post where you mentioned me and my blog and, with your permission, I will reblog it this Saturday 🙂
      I think it is very nice and interesting to live so close to the Bronte village, especially if you like what she wrote.
      Have a great week, my friend!
