Such a good and insightful post. I am really looking forward to reading the rest of this series, as so far it opens up more questions than that it gives answers - which is absolutely the best way to start an investigation. So thank you for that.

Thanks for reading. Those answers are on their way.

This is an awesome post, you're a really patient :P teacher. I think this technique works on any sort of writing-poetry or prose.
Thanks for being awesome
Stay Woke

Thank you for reading :)

I still have a lot to learn. These are pretty good ideas. I am glad I stumbled on your channel. Nice to meet you @damianjayclay ;)

Thanks for reading. The course will be expansive :)

Well, this is a lot more insightful into the process than I expected. It always feels like poetry is some weird form of art that must exist in some kind of 'natural' state, in its original organic emotional blob-like form, but for it to be good it needs to be edited and refined just like any written work. Great read.

Thanks, Neg,

As they say, learning to write is learning to edit.

Thanks for reading :)

Great Tips man ;) To be honest I really like to leave the work to the editors... But I have totally different process going on :) when creating... also different pieces come out as well :) I will try to put more effort into editing :P But it is really hard for me as I find small time to write and not much left for editing ... You got into our daliy dose too :) Grats .

Thanks for reading and including me in DD.

As the weeks progress I'll be dishing out a lot of information about poetry and editing. Really, people are free to take and leave as much of it as they want.

This is so useful! Lately, I've been writing some poetry, but I was getting the feeling I wasn't exactly doing it as I was supposed to. And I was definitely right about that one. Can't wait to put into practice these tips, thank you so much!

Thanks for reading and, stick around, there's much more to come.

I am so excited to find you and this post.
I have a new aspirations for writing. I have zero experience with any form of creative writing, but an incredible desire to learn.
I have submitted posts using the poetry tag, but don't consider myself a poet. I want to be one, and am excited to learn.
Following for more great content

Good to have you along. Why not join The Writers' Block on Discord. We're a great community who help one another out with writing. Just click on the animated banner above.

Very good. I just do original limericks and rhyming Haikus. They don't take a long time for me. I am a bit like Robin Williams, quick of wit.

Thanks for reading. We'll eventually get to forms in the next part of the course. Hope you can follow along.
