This episode we talk about Free Verse and Blank Verse poetry. What makes them different? How are they similar? How do you separate them from fixed form poetry? We also discuss how you can create your own free and blank verse poems. We dive into scansion, meter, feet, and other poetic conventions. As the final episode of the season two poetry series, these forms of poetry close out the show.Show Notes:<a href="https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/48860/the-raven">The Raven | Edgar Allan Poe</a> <a href="https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/45000/remember-56d224509b7ae">Remember | Christina Rossetti</a> <a href="https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/45738/paradise-lost-book-2-1674-version">Paradise Lost: Book 2 | John Milton</a> <a href="https://moonlightowl.wordpress.com/2013/06/21/it-is-difficult-to-speak-of-the-night/">It is Difficult to Speak of the Night | Jack Gilbert</a> <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5129.Brave_New_World">Brave New World | Aldous Huxley</a>Come Say Hello:Website: https://www.pendoland.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pendoland/ Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/pendoland">https://twitter.com/pendoland</a> YouTube: PendoLand Email:12ptft@gmail.com

Ep 49 | Reading for Writers

Welcome to 12pt Font a Novel Writing (NaNoWriMo) Podcast where I answer questions, conduct interviews, give advice, provide resources, gush over my favorite books, writers, and well things, and generally babble as I muddle my way through November. Strap in for 31 episodes of us holding ourselves together, and pushing each other to be better in the pursuit of the art we want to create. We can do this. I hope. Stick around, let's do this together!
