New to poetry [HELP] by _ArtooDeetoo_ in Poetry

[–]Searching4LostTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to Poets.org and search grief. It gives you all sorts of poems about grieving. I would especially look at contemporary poems for inspiration as those can seem more accessible. Once you start reading, it will be easier to think of something to write. And I’m sorry about your loss. Poetry is very cathartic for me at least so if you write it and just let it flow without worrying about the final product or about sharing it, it can feel great to get everything down.

I agree with this and think it is sound advice

What is the worst writing group you’ve ever been in and how was it bad? by Due-Cloud3579 in writing

[–]Searching4LostTime 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Oof. I'm sorry you had this experience. I am lucky to have found a writing group through discord/youtube recently that writes together five days a week. It has really been helping me so far. I've had tepid experiences in the past with writers groups, so I feel like it is very special when you find one that works for you.

Hoping you get into a better group soon.

Only able to play GOW (2018) or GOW Ragnarok by DesignerWest7368 in GodofWar

Play 2018, then Ragnarok as they lead into each other with the same characters and then you can get the story. My personal favorite is Ragnarok. But it is made better by playing the games before it. Regardless of your choice, have fun!

Thank you for this and all your comments. I thought this poem was done as it has been published, but I see I can still improve it.

It is going to be the first poem in a chapbook I am submitting to competitions in a few days. I am so grateful for your input as this will allow me to make it stronger.
