Good time-zone, everyone. So, I mentioned this on my Tiktok Story for today, but I'll repeat it here as well.
Lately, I finished my first edit run-through off my first poem book's draft. I would like to do a second run-through to double-check my editing "skills."
Each poem book I eventually release will (so far) contain 200 poems, obviously written solely by me. At this point in time, I have a little over 1,670 poems in my drafts, which some I have shared on my socials with my growing audience, but I archive/delete those postings by the beginning of every month now (or at least within the first few days of each month).
My goal is to reach 2,000 total poems by the end of 2026, which is doable, with enough determination.
My plan is also to have a "phase" with every 2,000 poems written, in which I sort of change my style of writing a little. I'll still write in my "old" styles here and there, but I'll experiment a bit more during each phase. Phase 1 is only me trying to figure out who I am as a poet. Phase 1 has been active since May 15, 2023, and to be honest, I never thought I would write 500 poems, let alone over 1,600 at all. But here I am, and soon enough, here we are.
Obviously, stick around and stay tuned for any further updates as time rolls on and my madness spills more onto page. Thank you for reading.
