Introduction:
“Please do not bring that foolishness into 2021.” Thank you Grammy Award winning Dionne Warwick for putting so succinctly, how so many of us feel. That now famous tweet by the artist is a billboard near Times Square. It is an appropriate and relevant sentiment given today’s topic of R&R: Review and Resolution
A transcript of this segment and each subsequent session will be posted (for anyone interested) at http://www.sidewayseight.co which is my main outlet for personal poetry and photography: Sideways Eight Projects.
Given that Disney just released ‘Soul’ on Christmas Day, I came across this quote which can be a gut check for everyone across this year particularly.
“Soul is about authenticity. Soul is about finding the things in your life that are real and pure.”
Hello fantastic people! My name is Jesse James Ziegler. I am the current Poet in Residence for the Bruka Theatre of the Sierra in Reno, Nevada.

This Weeks Writing Prompt:
This week’s Prompt : The Year in Review and Resolution
I want for this podcast style personal portion to contain information about famous writers and their quotes as well as, futuristically speaking, local guests to this program who help everyone involved gain a diversity of perspective and positively impact our individual process.
Quote(s) of the Week:(1)
“If you’re offered a seat on a rocket ship, don’t ask what seat! Just get on.”
I’m hoping this sharing and vulnerability I’m demonstrating will encourage others who love creative writing as well to open up, by sharing from their innermost, related to the topic provided. I’m hoping we all gain perspective, compassion, hope, and discipline through such organized sharing.
Piece or Pieces of the Week: (1)
