VLOG: WHEN COMMISSIONED TO WRITE A POEM…

BCP Writing PathIt has been an amazing week of writing and re-writing and reading out loud.

Today is my deadline for the poem that has been commissioned.  The poem is resting before I do my last few re-reads.  A poet friend of mine, Whitney French, is meeting me now so as to look over the poem and give final feedback.

While writing the poem I thought about the process of being commissioned to write it.  I came up with a few key points that might help poets who are commissioned.  They are included in this VLOG.

Watch, SHARE, Enjoy, Tweet, and get writing!
