I don’t normally publicise my own stuff on here, but I’ve just written a blog post for The Talent Bank. TTB is a very user-friendly networking site (I found it much easier to upload to than other sites I’ve used), where you can post examples of your work. (Please remember that anything you post will then count as ‘published’ by many poetry editors and competition administrators, so may not be admissible by them – it’s best to use work you’ve already had published, or that you don’t intend to submit.)
Please share, to get The Talent Bank some added publicity. The site’s home page is: http://www.thetbank.com/
My blog post is aimed at poets just starting out – or people who’d like to write poetry but don’t know where to start. I’ve included a mini-workshop. If you’d like to read my blog post (or you know someone who might be interested), it’s at: http://www.thetbank.com/blog/writing-poetry-easy-if-you-know-how
