I'm Violet, and I just made my account last night. I'm a poet, and have been for most of my life. I've always kept my poetry very secret, and never shared, so this is my attempt at getting it out there and reading others. I found this forum among others in a list of active writing communities.

Not where you last saw me.
Hi, Violet. Welcome to AW.

I admire poets. I'm pretty sure I don't own a single poetic cell but so love reading poetry.

Hi, Violet. :welcome:

I'm a poet, too. Putting stuff out is scary indeed. People here have given me feedback that sharpened my writing--and they're friendly, too.

I'll look forward to seeing you around.

Mostly inside my own head.
Welcome, Violet!

I wrote some poetry in the past, though now I focus more on novel-writing.

I, too, keep my passion very secret. Places like this forum are a great way to share it with people of similar interests, and meet like-minded people.

Good luck!

Hi Violet! I am in awe of anyone who tackles poetry! I think it is so beautiful but could never write it :)

Hi Violet, I'm pretty new here as well. I love reading poetry, but I've only ever dabbled at writing it. Prose is more my forte at the moment. Hope to read your work soon.
