MEDIA REVIEWS
"Inspiring, inventive, encouraging." * Psych Central *
"These two well practiced and dedicated poets have created You/Poet, which will help you to grow your creativity and find your voice as a poet. You/Poet is something that anyone who has ever been interested in being a poet [can use to] test their creative skills. The exercises can allow you to indulge in meditative thinking and freely open word association. You/Poet is also a book that can be enjoyed by readers of all ages, and could even be used as a resource for those who teach English or poetry for their students." * The Nerdy Girl Express *
"A tremendous gift to writers everywhere. In other words, if you want to be a poet, this book is for you. Everything about YOU/POET is wonderful and is exactly what an aspiring writer needs. Unlike many other books, YOU/POET isn't just theoretical. It is practical and tangible. Frankly, I wish I had this book years ago. I can't recommend YOU/POET enough and am thrilled that HER HEART POETRY jumped on the scene to foster community." * YA BOOKS CENTRAL *
