Almost time
Hello, howdy, salutations, guten tag, etc.
Hello all,
My name is Jarrod. I’m a SCAD grad, writer, and multimedia artist/harsh noise maker from Georgia.
I participated in the marathon last year. It was a great experience. The no-stop nature of the Marathon ensures that anxiety and procrastination can’t get in the way of writing. It’s go-go-go which means lots of work actually gets done for once. Deadlines, while terrifying, can be a writer’s best friend. Hour deadlines even more so. Self-judgment, wallowing in imposter syndrome, and paper crumbling are hard to do here. In the time it takes you to delete a poem or agonize over a sentence, the next one will be due. More often than not, I found that some of the ones I hated, that I posted to keep up, were ones that some people really liked. Another invaluable lesson here, that I think we’ll all learn or revisit, is that we aren’t the final say in whether what we created has value or not. As much as we’d love to scream-through-sans-serif font at our kind readers here, we can’t. Move on. There will be 13 more to do, and so on.
I’ll see you on the other side, friendos.

Ready to Write
Hi everyone. I’m exhausted from my week but ready for some creative refreshment. This marathon always unlocks the lesser used side of my brain. I look forward to reading your work today. Good luck everyone! Stay strong!
Wish tree
If a wish tree appear,
If it grows wand,
It can give only three wishes,
If it grows magic broom,
Then it can be destroyed by lighting or thunder,
If it grows bottles of poison,
It does not grow medicine for curing,
If it grows magic carpet,
It will be destroyed by rain drops,
Every thing has disadvantages,
So,take our life positive,
And live a happy life…
