So I'm hating my creative writing class. Apparently, the only creative writing worth learning anything from by doing is poetry.
First assignment - write 2 anti-love poems. Define anti-love any way you want. No minimum length or any parameters given, not discussed in class.
This is so very much NOT my class.
You should write about how much you anti-love this assignment.
"10 Things I Hate About This Assignment."
The Anti-Poem Love
Iambic pentameter.
Haiku and prose.
Free verse and doggerel.
Sonnets and odes.
Couplets and cinquain.
I’ll sit and I’ll write it.
Cacophony, quatrain.
But I don’t have to like it.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I hate writing this poem
Let alone two
I'm so making a crosstitch sampler with that on it.
(Meaning I have to learn crosstitch, first...)
(Meaning I have to learn crosstitch, first...)
Or you could bribe my mom to make one for you ...
Has anyone read any of the books in this io9.com article?
The fact that they explicitly call out the fact that some of the protagonists are gay makes me want to read them, but only if they come with reasoned, non-hype reviews from people whose opinions I trust (i.e. you Buffistas, not a website who lists one of its contributors in the article).
Danke!
