I believe that reading and writing poetry are really good for wellbeing and I want to encourage the practice. My book contains a selection of my poems written over many years in various styles and formats and covering many topics. I explain in detail how I wrote some of them, sharing the inspiration and a thorough analysis of the form and words. It is written in a very accessible and appealing manner. I also include a range of activities to encourage people to write poems for themselves. I have tried these exercises out and I know they work even with people who think they are not very creative. These can be used by individuals, writing groups or by a tutor.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55554647753079,"sku":"9781837942176","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0357\/3199\/6807\/files\/41pzxTvMFzL._SY445_SX342_ControlCacheEqualizer.jpg?v=1754561769","url":"https:\/\/thebookhousebroughtyferry.co.uk\/products\/9781837942176","provider":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
