Why Prose?

It's a mixed bag for me.

Sometimes I like to lurk. Seeing true art graffiti-ed on the walls of the web is gratifying in a way words can't quite explain. The internet is rife with garbage work pretending to be anything but. Prose is a welcome reprieve.

Sometimes it's to dump the things out of my head when I get that insatiable itch to put words on page. There's something special about knowing I can post anything in the world, whether it be snippets of a novel or the incoherent ramblings of an insomniac at two in the morning.

Sometimes it's to wander through Portals and into treasure troves of talent. Poetry beyond reckoning embraces my senses. The genius on this platform is more abundant than June cockroaches on Bourbon Street.

And Finally-- for the challenges.

The indulgence.

The special treat to greet at the end of a long day of living among un-writerly folk.

I am continually delighted by the creativity to be found there-- in the Challenges section.

In short, Prose. is the choose your own adventure I didn't know I needed.
