What's Up Wednesday: The Last

Hello Poetteers,

My latest read was AUSTENLAND by Shannon Hale. I enjoyed it yet I gave it 3 stars.

On my Twitter page I announced that I'm working on a fourth poetry collection for publication! I hope to see you there to keep you updated on the process.

Also, yesterday was the release day for Aisha Saeed's WRITTEN IN THE STARS!

Last but not least, thank you Jamie and Erin!

Love, Fida

Good luck with your new poetry collection! Poetry is such an undervalued art form these days, so it's nice to see some writers still choose it.

Upcoming Poetry Reads of 2021, Part 2

Hello Poetteers,  I'm sharing more poetry books I discovered and am excited to read! March Coming Home to Her By Emily Juniper It is a celebration of being human.
