Same here.
Once you get into it, it's not that hard.
The thing that I don't like about them is how restricting they are. I might have a perfetly good line that expresses myself to the bone, but nooo.... it's too many syllables.
I like free verse poetry. I can create without having to worry about one word not rhyming with another.

I also like free verse. Most of the poetry I do in my spare time is free verse. Sonnets are one of the hardest types to do...

Ahh, poetry. Writing at the soul...
I write a lot... but my problem is losing my work. Yeah. Losing. I write it out, and it gets lost in The Pile. I'm sure you know what I mean, The Pile. The big pile of work and junk that all groups together on one desk or bed or corner or sofa or closet... sometimes all of the above. In my case, all of the above.
A lot of my work was lost when windows was reformatted. I might be able to dig it out though... it actually just broke, but it's there.
My dad knows how to do it.
I usually only show my poetry to "experts". Experts being the Writer's Club at school, comprised of some of my closest friends, and a teacher that we've become quite close to as well. They work and understand at the same level as I do, and we're used to reviewing and giving constructive criticism.

It's the weekends isn't it? I'm not done with my homework yet, and I'm completely at ease Well, of course, I won't be at ease once I look over to my half-completed Werewolf Essay and Sonnet...which is why I cover them up under my other piles...of...erm...stuff. Anyone up for some Butterbeer? *Takes butterbeer from CT* T'anks. I have to do my Werewolf essay, and my essay on the good qualities of Cobrallins. Not really sure what I'm gonna put in the latter, but I'll work something out...

What makes you think it's the weekends? Well, to me it's the weekends Sorry if I did misinform you, of course. *starts trying to draw pictures of creatures for Prof. TK's homework*

Anyone wants Fizzing Whizbees? *Munches on a Fizzing Whizbee* They're high in sugar so you'll be bouncing off the walls once you try them.

I don't like iambic pentameter - I can't write it properly. I'm such a prose girl Mera's and Linny's will get done, but I don't know if I can squeeze Tk's in :/ Is Professor Smiley setting homework this week? The short story was last week's, wasn't it? Phew, it takes one assignment off me then ^^

Tracy wasn't able to be here, so I marked the Task, put up the results, changed the point totals, and assigned a new task for you all.
And Smiley simply hasn't been online, so she wasn't able to put up the homework. She'll come online eventually. Just the work of the new school year, that's all.
