A few years ago, folks in the midwest began to notice a new poetic voice coming out of Columbus, Ohio. Fresh, intelligent, articulate, vibrant, FUNNY. All of these adjectives and more describe the work of Scott Woods. He can make you laugh at him, at others and at yourself and then, all of a sudden, you catch yourself actually THINKING. Don't miss a word of what he has to say. Now, nine books of poems later, and after editing three National Poetry Slam anthologies, he's a presence.
Now Woods has distilled all that into 50 Mistakes Poets Make (...aside from deigning to believe that they can point out mistakes in other poets, which is a given). This little book (32 pages, perfect bound) is a supreme condensation of instruction and awareness heightening. But it comes with online access to the ongoing 50 Mistakes Journal. Get examples, access to ask questions, even access for your classroom. How much better could all poets be just by avoiding their habitual mistakes? Here's the answer.

Candid and Comprehensive,

This review is from: 50 Mistakes Poets Make (Paperback)
For a slim volume, this book is one of the most lucid and thorough discussions of poetry and the issues surrounding the writing of poetry that a person can buy. Direct and insightful, it's a quick read and worth the while of any writer, reader, or poetic dabbler.
