My Plans With Poetry

As you may know, I enjoy writing poetry just as much as I love reading it. Lately, I have been thinking about working towards publishing my very own collection. I need a lot more content then I have produced so far, but I believe that it is an achievable goal. Honestly, I believe that all goals are achievable but this one in particular I think that I can accomplish within a year of writing.

The Obstacles

I do work during the summer and I am enrolled in school during the fall, so the hardest part will be finding time to write. I know this seems like an easy task but I am working on being more of an organized person. I also need to find someone who can be honest with me and tell me if my poetry has potential. I believe that everybody has the ability to write poetry, but not every writer has the ability to connect with an audience. In a recent interview I conducted in one of my classes I asked my girlfriend what she thought poetry was and how it is taught in schools.

The Result

Besides the obvious benefit of self expression I would hope to somehow profit off of my creation. I am a Public Relations major and I have a core network of friends who would surely buy the collection out of support. All I have to do on my part is to deliver a quality collection that displays the potential I have to be a great writer. Stay tuned for what will come and thanks for reading.
