🍵 The Write to Poetry

In honor of Mother’s Day, The Write to Poetry is giving paid subscribers a FREE digital copy of the popular title The Joy of Poetry: How to Keep, Save & Make Your Life with Poems.

The book includes extras like:

• how to keep a poetry journal

• how to be a poetry buddy (hear the story of two friends who read Every Day Poems together, daily!)

• how to take a poetry dare

Megan Willome’s The Joy of Poetry is not a long book, but it took me longer to read than I expected, because I kept stopping to savor poems and passages, to make note of books mentioned, and to compare Willome's journey into poetry to my own...

I loved this book. As soon as I finished, I began reading it again.
