As mentioned in my first post:
When I write poetry, sometimes I feel that perfect punctuation is necessary. More often, I realize that some of the punctuation is not needed, just like some of the words originally filling a stanza can be removed. In poetry, less is definitely more…Very often, I strongly feel that the words themselves in harmony with blank space can dictate the rhythm and silences of a poem. By allowing the words and the space create the rhythm, I believe I can almost paint a blank page with words. This is part of my voice, of my signature. This is my view.
Thanks for visiting my blog!

Hey Adriana,
If your still interested to be interviewed I have the questions ready for you. I’m sorry to write on here it appears you aren’t accepting messages on Goodreads.
Thanks,

‘I believe I can almost paint a blank page with words.’
and we share this belief, as an ex painter with no training in the poetry i write, it is precisely how i feel. and honestly, words color far better than my paint ever could.
Thanks for your comment. I like painting too (with colors or words). For me they are different expressions and I seek them to complement my contact with and understanding of the world. I also think that words are more powerful because they force us (the writers and the readers) to imagine the feelings, shades, shapes, and colors. Painting for me is a way to release stress, to express myself when I cannot find the “correct” words, to let the brush control the moment.
I like your voice. I like your signature.
I love your view 😉
Keep writing <3
Thank you, Christine. 🙂
