by Susan G. Wooldridge (Author)
An "optimistic, warm, unpretentious" (San Francisco Chronicle) guide to unlocking your inner poet, blending thoughtful anecdotes and practical exercises to foster inspiration and promote creativity
"This is a wonderful book--smart, wide-eyed, joyful, helpful, inspiring. You're going to love it, and love writing poetry more for having read it."--Anne Lamott, author of Bird by Bird It's impossible to teach anyone to write a poem. But we can set up circumstances in which poems are likely to happen. We can create a field in and around us that's fertile territory for poems. Playing with words, we can get to the place where poems come from. We can write and make discoveries about who we are and who we might become whether or not we truly commit ourselves to becoming poets. Poemcrazy is an invaluable resource for everyone who ever wanted to write a poem but was afraid to try. Writing workshop leader Susan Wooldridge shows you how to think, use your senses, and create habits that will help inspire poetic expression. She urges you to ignore the pressure of completing a poem; instead, she focuses on building inspiration through writing exercises that encourage mindfulness, imagination, and observation. Amidst a fast-paced world, Poemcrazy invites you to slow down, reflect, and make the intentional choice to allow creativity in.Author Biography
