    The Secret To Writing

    Hating writing? But having felt great about writing? What is the secret? You just have to bleed into the page, no matter if it’s good or not good enough! Write like the ice rain in winter… tapping the window panes hard...

    • “Tap the window panes hard”–yes, it seems the only way to get one to notice poetry. Not the favorite genre of so many…
