Literature & Writing (British)

[england49g8u]

I have managed to try some technics in writing,
and even tried Benjamin Franklin's way - I am looking
for creative ways. How to write poems? Fauvorite author?

I am not quite sure what you are asking here but if you are looking for lessons or advice on how to write or how to write poetry there should be several books that will offer the writer great techniques. Be sure to pick up a book on the elements of style and useage. I could recommend a couple but I am sure that British style may be/is different than American. As far as writing goes - use your own style and persona. Write what you feel. One of the worst things a writer can suffer through is writing as someone else tells them to because "it has to be done this way." Amazing how we look at authors and writers from long ago and consider them great BECAUSE they broke "the rules"; yet today we cannot conceive that manner (for the most part).

I have taken workshops where you have to write something in the style of a particular author. It was an interesting exercise and stretches the imagination a bit.

Sorry, I'm not a poet, although I can make up fluffy rhymes on the spot when necessary!
