Write What You Know

Write what you know Write what you love Invent a new world Invent words Be silly Play Write what you see Write what bothers you Write what amuses you Invent a new persona Let the words dance Sing them home Poetry does not have to be fancy Poetry does not have to be frilly Be truthful Heartfelt honesty sells People love it Write what you know

One of my favorite axioms is: 'write where your planted'. Works for me. Good one!

"write what you know"...Oh, my friend, I have no idea what to write... the words chase across the paper like squirrels in the park, saving nuts and never sharing. This is a great write you have done. I love it and so very true indeed. Ann
