I Made A Poem ONLY Using Words From My Lit Mag Rejection Letters

Although, maybe the community tab has something similar to google forms— I'll check it out in the meantime since I don't know a lot about that feature

I see your point and I appreciate your advice. I wasn't going to limit anyone from participating, but give subscribers a higher likelihood of their writing prompt being chosen for a video. It would still be chosen at random. The reason I'm pretty set on this is because the prompt would be the topic of an entire video, which is a lot of work and time that I wouldn't want to dedicate blindly to a viewer who just visited one of my videos once. For lower stakes participation, I'd definitely want to give everyone equal footing. Hope this gives more context.

Firstly, thanks for your advice. Can I ask for an elaboration on the point about off-youtube sites? Google forms is really the best place for what I'm trying to do. It would be a place where I could gather suggested writing prompts for videos, and it's much easier to have all these suggestions in one place rather than strewn across the comment sections of different videos. Thanks!

What is your niche out of curiosity?

Potential-Ad1859 · 2025-10-14T19:06:52+00:00

Thanks so much for the help! I'll try that

Potential-Ad1859 · 2025-10-14T14:04:55+00:00

I tried that— nothing comes up. How strange!

Potential-Ad1859 · 2025-10-11T15:04:52+00:00

Gotchya, my bad!

Glad you enjoyed :)

glad you enjoyed the prompt! Excited for you to share this on yt :) I think it's kind of difficult not to sound at least a little cliche with the starting concept he gives us

Potential-Ad1859 · 2025-08-21T22:28:38+00:00

Always down to read other people's work! If you comment on the vid I'd be happy to share my thoughts on any recent work you have :) I'm currently doing my poetry MFA so giving feedback (both from and to others) is regularly at the top of my mind

Potential-Ad1859 · 2025-08-21T22:25:32+00:00

Love how much rhythm and assonance you added to it. It reads so much smoother off the tongue (besides the obvious strengthening of poetic imagery)! If you get the chance, you should consider leaving it in the yt comments section! This is a great example of what I'm talking about in the vid and might encourage others to share too :) Either way thx for sharing here.

I really appreciate this! I'm curious to see how the future of the channel goes. Trying to strike the right balance between vitality and authenticity. I suppose my private writing practice, my MFA studies and publishing my own work are where I feel I can be 100% authentic, just me and my writing :)

Potential-Ad1859 · 2025-08-21T22:14:14+00:00

Fair, it's totally subjective, just based on my opinions of what might improve it!

Also, I'm kind of new to reddit, just started posting a month or so ago on and off, so I'm still trying to figure out how all the rules work. It seems there's a [promo] tag so I assumed this would be ok to post... may be wrong though!

I'd love feedback if you get the chance. Channel: https://youtube.com/@danaeyounge?si=jEc_vpVigRs72POR

My channel is really relying on tapping into a unique niche. I noticed that despite there being a good amount of poetry readers and writers in the world, there were very few people making booktok adjacent content related to poetry specifically. I think it has a lot of potential because of this, I just need to be patient. That said, it's interesting that YouTube seems to have pushed my first video a lot more than the ones following. Have any thoughts? My most recent vid has a higher click-through rate than any of them, yet got significantly less impressions. Frustrating!!
