I love the many pictures I get out of such a small poem! Nice work!

Thanks 🙂 A creative writing professor told me to ground poetry in imagery.

Oh you take creative writing? What’s it like? I wasn’t precisely brave enough to take that route, I’m in econ so I won’t be graded on my words…

I took two creative writing classes, one specifically for poetry. I went to Rutgers and graduated ’10. They were great. They really helped me develop as a writer. It was awesome to be surrounded by writers and read their work. If you can, take a class. It can be intimidating but a good professor will create a good atmosphere for constructive feedback.

Which Rutgers is that? I just discovered there are many, haha. Sadly I am at the end of my BA, and I am not sure yet where I’ll be for my MA, and what they’ll have to offer. If I can get a creative writing course as a elective that would be awesome

lol it’s not sad Rutgers is huge. I went to the New Brunswick campus. They are all Jersey. It’s exciting, so many possibilities right now. Even if you don’t take a course, writing here is a great way to practice and develop. 🙂

Cool! I have only been to NB once, and I was pretty young so it is hard to remember.
I do enjoy WordPress a lot!
