    The name says it all. I want to try some different styles. And was wondering what people on this site recomended. If you leave a recommendation(Sp?) Please leave like a description of it. Cause as of this moment I have no clue what they are and how to do them...
    Thanks.
    Elaine.

    There are two postings Notes On Writing Poetry ( which is very, very long and is locked, but you can still access and read it)(at
    http://www.poems-and-quotes.com/discussion/topic.html?topic_id=56674)
    and Notes On Writing Poetry Part II ( at
    http://www.poems-and-quotes.com/discussion/topic.html?topic_id=86274). Both of these contain almost every aspect or poetry writing, including an extensive list of poetry froms/terms and their definitions. These threads contain a wealth of information from many P&Q members and I'm sure you would find some beneficial material (if you have the time to read through it, lol) Hope it helps.

    Peace, Poetry & Power,
