Becoming the writer I want to be

What kind of thing are you wanting to write?

 

Leaf dances in breeze.
Catches the remaining light.
Downpour incoming.

Days cannot stay still.
Heavens crack asunder and
wash the filth away.

 

How bad of a writer are you allowed to be to be able to post something you've written just for the sake of writing in this thread? Asking for myself..

 

You can post whatever you like as long as you are comfortable with doing so. And as long as it isnt potentially triggering I guess.

 

Do you see any other changes I should make, like trying to rewrite the longer lines into shorter forms or sans these two mistakes, do you think it's fine as it is?

I felt whimsical this morning and wanted to write a haiku based on earlier failed attempts to use the word "hammock" in a haiku. I hope you all enjoy this and I hope to start work on my haikus when I've graduated. Everything I was going to do has been pushed back (a bit).

 

Actually I'm trying to write about the issues of the society which are associated with the modern era. I don't know how to start but I'm sure that I want to write about it.

Thanks in advance

 

So its non fiction?

 

Yeah

 

I have no experience writing non fiction so I am not sure what help I can offer unfortunately. Other than basic stuff like make sure you devote a lot of time to research and planning.

 

Yep research research and more research.
And personal experience will help. You have to relate to connect with the reader.

 

You are the artist. I could change things but I would rather you keep writing as you and I can give you tips along the way. Honestly it's good.

Bananas tower
Reaching up to the heavens
Perfection and rich.

Just play with them bro.

 

Thanks anyways

 

Thanks Bud

 

1640 words today, a good start to a new chapter.

 

Started on my final paper today. This is the last research paper I need to do before I finish my degree. Working on it has made me consider turning it into an essay- which is one of like 6-7 papers I'm thinking of turning into essays for hopeful publication. I'd like to spend part of break clearing out my computer files, saving the papers I want to turn into essays, but moving the rest into a flash drive and put those writings away so that I'm not boggled down with old reminders as I try to start my new life as a man seeking to work and writing for a living- however that may come.

 

1065 words today. Wanted to get more done but I can easily make up the difference tomorrow so its no big deal I guess.
