Since, I wasn't in class on Thursday I'm catching up on the post that I didn't make. The internet is making it a lot easier for writers or poets to publish their work, and it doesn't necessarily have to be in a physical journal. What I hope to bring to light with my project is to show writers and poets the different resources that are available to them out on the web and where they can access different resources that will help them both write and get their work published.
The thing I like most about my project, so far, is my trailer.... well an aspect of my trailer. I like the part where I had different people read different lines from a poem by Pablo Neruda. I thought that was really cool and it came out very unique and interesting. I think it gave the poem a different spin than if I had just quoted it through slides with different pictures and music in the background. Though this really wasn't the direction that my project took as I thought it would. I have learned from my project that I am more looking for, not what poetry is already online or how people have published it online, but rather what resources are out there for people who are looking for poems or poets or who are looking for ways to get themselves published or heard... or who just want some feedback on their work. And what I am starting to see is that they're a lot of resources... a lot of free resources out there for individuals that want help with their work.
