Today marks the 13th anniversary of the Daily Create I’ve been participating in this since around 2016, often uploading my responses to a Flickr album. Here they are as a slideshow. Here’s to the next 13 years! You can participate as well – just visit the web page at 5am UTC or follow the @creating on Mastodon.
In 2024 I chose one of the photos I had taken every day and uploaded it to a Flickr album. Here they all are as a slideshow.
One thing that continues to give me joy each year is the collaborative calendar that some of us contribute to. This year’s calendar was put together by Kevin, and it is a thing of beauty. You can download a copy and print it off if you like.
My contribution is in memory of mum, who loved ducks. I took this on the way home from her funeral.

During the month of November we (Alka, Deb, Mary and Sarah) asked ourselves four questions:
First of all, each of us took some time to free write about these questions and add our answers to a shared Google Doc. When we met up over Zoom to talk about what we had written we were amazed to find so many similarities, as well as our many differences.
After we had all written something about ourselves in answer to the questions, Sarah spent some time looking over the whole document and seeing which words jumped out at her. She created a found poem from these collaborative words and used an online app called Lumen 5 to create a video.
As well as this collaborative video, Sarah and Deb also created their own individual answers to the questions
