MY NEW POETRY CHAPBOOK, GHOST HOUSE: amzn.to/3qLs5xM

In my opinion, poetry lends itself to particular kind of "grammar mistakes," or, at least, unnecessary confusion. Some of this video is definitely my own subjective opinion! But I believe that it is important to be clear, even in poetry. One of the fun things about poetry is that you can break all the rules! But it's best to break the rules only when you understand the rule you're breaking and have a reason behind what you're doing. Often, writers do not even realize that their writing is causing confusion. Hopefully this video will alert you to some of those common areas of confusion and provide tips for avoiding them.
