\n2. Write the worst poem you can manage until you get over self imposed expectations.
\n3. Imagery<\/strong> and symbols<\/strong> allows much more to be said than a flat word.
\n4. Develop your own unique voice and style, don’t try to imitate<\/strong>.
\n5. Try writing from the position of someone you don’t agree with to stretch your creativity.
\n6. Keep a notepad and pen with you to grab ideas<\/strong> from the ethers and get them down before they disappear.
\n7. Dreams<\/strong> are great sources for ideas and inspirations.
\n8. Write about topics you feel <\/strong>a great deal about.<\/font>
