Dramatis persona*

helenhead Helen Chick

I've always wanted a bumper sticker that said "I'm a female, LDS/Mormon, Scout leading, geocaching, piano-playing, bicycling, mathematics educator with a PhD in maths ... and I VOTE"!

I think this makes me a minority group of cardinality 1!

* Since there's only one of me and "personae" is plural (I think), I've gone with dramatis persona.

95.          Advertisement

Would you be in search of a bard?
Poet for hire?
Words that inspire?
Then, here, let me give you my card.
For any occasion at all,
Give me a theme
Choose rhyming scheme,
Allow me a moment to scrawl.
If you would like proof I can write—
Samples to test
At your request—
Or check out my work on this site.

Comments: This one is a bit lame (not to mention awkward … and decidedly self-referential in a collection that has already overdosed on that), but given the constraints (time pressure, lateness of the hour, the push for the finish line) it will do.

Themes to come: 96. In the Storm; 97. Safety First; 98. Puzzle; 99. Solitude; 100. Relaxation

    Well, I guess my congratulations was a bit premature…I have faith however that you will succeed…:) just 5 more to go.

      Not strictly premature: they’re all written now, but I’ve been publishing them at one per day and I didn’t start until I had 12 already done (because that gave me the confidence that the challenge was achievable (which may have been a slightly misleading confidence) and also gave me a buffer against the inevitable interruptions and pressures (a buffer which was whittled down to 5 by the end). Thanks for the congratulations, though. 🙂
