Create a Poem Review & GIVEAWAY

Like to share ideas, express emotions and create imagery? Maybe you're a poet! Chartwell Books has just added a selection of guided journals to their Creative Keepsakes series. This includes Create a Poem: Writing Prompts for Poets by the Editors of Chartwell Books. Each one-page writing exercise has a topic, 10 word associations and space for writing in. The pages are arranged as follows. At the top is a one-word topic. It provides the writer with a starting point by answering the question, "What should I write about?" It eliminates what is sometimes the most difficult decision. At the bottom is a list of 10 words for use in the poem. They are meant to nudge the writer along by sparking thoughts, experiences and ideas. They may also challenge the writer. The remainder of the page consists of blank space for writing in. I counted 22 lines. There are a total of 200 pages in this format. The pages are rectangular in shape with rounded corners. For ease of use the journal generally stays open when you lay it flat. The type of poem you choose to write is up to you. Some general instruction is provided at beginning of the book. See the sample pages below. Guided journals make great gifts. I`m giving this one to my boyfriend. Chartwell Books released this 204 page paperback on April 27, 2021. Get your copy below!
