Blogophilia Week 27.14 – Keeping Up With Time

HAPPY NEW YEAR, EARTHLINGS! This is Ecrits Blogophilia Week 27 of our 14th year! We hope you are enjoying a most wonderful holiday season, and are ready for 2023! We would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for your support in all of our 14 years, and especially for embracing the return of the Marvin house and Blogophilia. You Earthlings ROCK!

MARTIAN REQUEST FOR FUTURE POSTINGS – Earthlings, if you are posting your weekly challenge piece directly to Facebook either in a comment or your own post, please add a picture to your write (either the weekly picture or any of your own) so that I can link it directly to your write. Otherwise, the link just posts to my Facebook page or the Blogophilia group, not your specific write – and we want readers to be able to access your write directly without scrolling all around! 🙂 Thanks!

Now you always say
That you want to be free
But you’ll come running back (I said you would baby)
You’ll come running back (I said so many times before)
You’ll come running back to me

Oh, time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is

You’re searching for good times
But just wait and see
You’ll come running back (I won’t have to worry no more)
You’ll come running back (spend the rest of my life with you, baby)
You’ll come running back to me

“Time is on My Side” – The Rolling Stones

ATTENTION BLOGGERS: PLEASE continue to post the link to your blog on either the Facebook Martien Ecrits timeline or the Ecrits Blogophilia group!!!!!! Or post within Facebook if that is what works for you.

Thanks for your cooperation!

Happy New Year to Earthlings, one and all! We at the Marvin house are excited to be starting a brand new year and new season. Welcome, 2023! We are so honored to provide a weekly space for you to let your creativity flow and write!

Thank you from the bottom of our alien hearts for your support, we at the Marvin house can’t wait to read what you’ve got in store this week. Remember, the topic and bonus prompts are provided for inspiration, they are not required since we eliminated the scoring component.

Last week’s topic “The Spirit of Christmas!!!” was provided by Martien Ecrits aka Marvin Martian! Haha, I couldn’t help myself. We at the Marvin house were definitely feeling the spirit of Christmas and the holiday season. And we hope you were, as well!

Last week’s bonus prompts were submitted by Stormy Gail Dormire and Tyler Myrth! We thank you both for your contributions!

Last week’s awesome picture was submitted by YOURS TRULY! The beautiful photo of the young boy by the tree was very nostalgic!

Remember that you can send in topics, bonus suggestions and pictures to me by direct message at any time. We will save this information and try to use different prompts from all participants. Be sure that the photos submitted are not copyrighted and are royalty free, or you can use photographs that you have personally taken. We will not use any photographs that suggest hate, discrimination, pornography, or other taboo subjects.

Week 27.14 Picture

Ecrits Blogophilia Week 27.14 Topic: Keeping Up With Time

Hard Bonus: Include an Edgar Allen Poe line or quote

Easy Bonus: Mention shrimp and cocktail sauce

Blogs should be submitted on or before Midnight (EST), Saturday, January 7, 2023 at 11 EST!! Please TAG Martien Ecrits by including his name within your blog content. In doing so, your blog will show up on his timeline. You may also post your blog link in the comment section below and/or post your blog link on the group Ecrits Blogophilia page.

There are no longer any guesses for the topic, bonus prompts or picture submissions, nor points awarded for any of these. As stated in our relaunch blog, the Blogophilia challenge has eliminated point scoring, tallying, tracking and awarding jackets. We have moved to a kinder, gentler blogging group that is no longer a competition. Instead, we aim to be inclusive, collaborative and encouraging of writers!!

What are you waiting for? Start Writing!!!
