Love love love to write... though it's been a while. I got all focused on this working out thing and my brain is getting a nice break from wordsmithing lol
I published my first book of poetry about a year & a half ago0 -
I'm more of a frustrated writer wannabe, and my last serious effort has long since fallen off my plate. But I still greatly admire quality poetry, prose, etc.
Who knows, maybe this will be something that helps give my slumbering muse the swift kick to the backside that it needs! :laugh:0 -
Poetry is my passion. I'm in the middle of an undergrad degree with a primary focus on Romantic poetry, and hope to start graduate studies in the next couple of years. I'm writing very slowly, but I enjoy it almost as much as analysing it. I was so excited to see this group0

I am not a published writer, however I did write short stories, and a Fantasy Action novel I never completed. Furthermore I wrote a lot of free style poetry.... I haven't written in two years. I hope to see other peoples work and get inspired.0

Welcome guys
Glad there are others who enjoy the art of poetry. I have had a few published but it's been a very long time. I just started writing again for the first time in 8yrs. I was inspired and now I can't stop lol.

I do ryhmes more than anything, but if I had more time I would write more. I think I was a Hallmark moment writer in another life. :-D0

I love writing poetry & short stories.
I enjoy reading poetry as well.
I keep a notebook handy when I feel inspired to write.
I am not published but I have written close to 200 poems
since 9th grade English & Junior year Creative Writing classes in high school.
I haven't written in a year or two though which kind of bums me out.0 -
I love writing and reading poetry.
My sister-in-law hates reading my poems because most of the time she ends up cryingI kinda like it when that happens to people - I think it is because I know that it truly comes from the heart then. And sometimes I will even make myself cry while writing it.
I have a blog titled "A Beading Heart Poet" that I am trying to update regularly with poems that I have written.
I write about things that are going on in my life and things that effect me.
My husband thinks I should try and get published and maybe this group is the boost that I need to take that extra step.
Who knows??0
