About This Blog
I've been writing poetry since 2008. Well, what I mean to say is the first poem I wrote that is okay enough to put online is from 2008. Since then I've grown a lot in my writing - I've written and read plenty of poetry, good and bad, been involved in school literary magazines, and even taken a few poetry classes. I've won a few awards, been published a few places. And so, I've decided to put my work online in a personal blog. Every poem posted here is my own original work, except for the first poems in my "Response Poem" posts, which have been credited to their authors - these have been included because a response poem makes much more sense if you've first read the poem it is responding to. Anyway, I hope you enjoy what you read.
I have also begun to add audio components to some of the poems. The way I read the poems in the recordings is generally close to how I hear the poem in my head, which might be interesting for the reader to hear. Currently, there is quite a bit of static in the recordings, though, and I hope to use some better recording equipment to remedy that. As it is, I hope the quality of the recording doesn't detract from the experience of hearing it read aloud.
Lastly, on the third tab of this blog, creatively titled "Other Poets (and what I think of them)", you'll find reviews and some links to books and poems that I've read and for the most part enjoyed. So if you're looking for some interesting poets, definitely check that page out.
