Blogophilia Week 29.14 – Clouds in My Coffee

Posted on January 15, 2023 by Marvin's Blogophilia

This is Ecrits Blogophilia Week 29 of our 14th year!

MARTIAN REQUEST FOR FUTURE POSTINGS:

1. Please tag Marvin by posting the link to your WordPress/Blogger blog either on Marvin’s Facebook profile or on the weekly challenge Facebook posts. These can be found both in the Ecrits Blogophilia group page or on Marvin’s profile and are pinned to the top of each. I have nearly missed some posts recently!

2. 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! 🙂

You Earthlings rock – thanks so much!

************************************

You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot

You had one eye in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte
And all the girls dreamed that they’d be your partner
They’d be your partner, and…

You’re so vain, you probably think this song is about you
You’re so vain, I’ll bet you think this song is about you
Don’t you? Don’t you?

“You’re So Vain” by Carly Simon

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!

We hope that 2023 thus far has been a good start for all! 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 “Keeping Up With Time” was provided by Craig Fallon! Craig, we are hoping that you are doing well, and miss reading your fantastic writes!

Last week’s bonus prompts were submitted by Christopher Mitchell and Lika Saliscente-Phipps! Thank you for your contributions last week!

Last week’s awesome picture was submitted by Joleene Naylor! The picture of the potato freaked out by the french fries was just perfect for the topic. And so funny!

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.

Ecrits Blogophilia Week 29.14 Topic:
Clouds in My Coffee

Hard Bonus: Incorporate a lyric by Moby

Easy Bonus: Include carbohydrates

Blogs should be submitted on or before Midnight (EST), Saturday, January 21, 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!!!
