Took me a long time to get here, and there was a certain amount of fussing and whinging along the way, but once I got into the swing of this I realized that suddenly I was thinking about stuff from the viewpoint of 'how do I turn this into something that works as writing?" For a spontaneous poet who only works when the words do, I'm finding that for the first time I'm getting ideas for prose writing that I never thought much about before.
Thank you to Mr. McEvily for creating a place that really works, and for everyone here who contributes, as well. Cool beans, as my neighbor says. Cool beans indeed.
