Hello. Thank you very much for accepting me to join the Poetry Marathon! It is my first participation in such a challenge! I hope this challenge to help me gain more courage and stimulate me into being more creative! One poem per hour is a lot! I think it’s a great way to get someone started to writing poetry. I hope to make some good poems during the day.<\/p>\n
I did study literature during my school and university days, yet I believe it was high time I started getting more creative and wrote my own poems.<\/p>\n
One step I took into this direction was when I started writing haiku in August 2014.<\/p>\n
I hope I get to know the other members as well as their creations during this challenge. Reading the others’ work and learning from them is as important as creating your own.<\/p>\n
I am from Romania. I was born there in 1983. I graduated from the University of Bucharest where I studied English and French and now I am an English teacher at the Technical University of Civil Engineering Bucharest.<\/p>\n
With so much technology that we can use nowadays it is great we can join such challenges and groups where we can practice our creativity.<\/p>\n
Thank you once again and good luck to all poets!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
