This is a space for writing of every developmental stage to be shared, not just the polished, "publishable" poems with nice shoes and good manners, but the ragged toddlers and ugly teenagers as well, the awkward, in-between poems that might languish indefinitely in a forgotten folder on my computer, were it not for this space.
This blog is a way of confronting my inner critic and allowing the reader to glimpse my creative process in a more intimate and honest way than if they were to simply read a fully formed poem, without knowing the many stumbles and unsightly metaphors needed for each piece to truly find its own authentic voice.
