While visiting with a poet friend of mine today, we discussed the pros and cons of traditional publication of poetry versus using social media. Let's face it; unless you are writing song lyrics for some big time celeb, your poetry will probably not make you a lot of money.
So if your goal is to share your art with as many people as possible, perhaps the best way to publish poetry is through Facebook, blogs, Twitter, and the like.
Check out these neat poetry apps for poets and readers. This may be a great way to inspire young writers in your classroom.
Poetry Apps
What a great resource, Becky! I also fell in love with the Creative Writing App for iPad. It has prompts and exercises for poetry and storytelling. Thanks for sharing!
