I’ve written poetry for as long as I can remember and I absolutely adore it, especially dark, horror, nature, or life poetry. I prefer narrative or non-adherence to rules poetry when writing it myself, but I enjoy reading all styles. If you don’t read poetry, you should give it a try – you might find something new you enjoy.
I do love to feature other poets and all things poetry so I have come up with a few promotions. The first features a series for National Poetry Month and the second is a ongoing, year-long series that features others.
