Book Description
Rhyming because i have to, is a poetry book by Sam Kaufman. In the book he deals with the future, the present, and the past. As well as his hatred for Jimmy Fallon. The book is a collection of poems set in a mindset that will not be replicated. it is a good collection for people who believe poetry can be simple, as well as intense. The author believes poetry is one of the most unappreciated forms of art in modern day. Most won't give it a chance, and those who do are prone to be writing snobs. AKA most publishing company's. In his book the author tries to create ""working man's poetry."" A form of poetry meant to be put both simply and blunt. A form that is not meant for everyone, but in many ways that's the point. Rhyming because i have to is a great addition to the literary world. that will show future writers that if you want to do something, then do it. life's too short not to.

Because You Have To
Author: Joan Frank
Publisher: University of Notre Dame Pess
ISBN: 0268079765
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Part memoir, part handbook, part survey of the contemporary literary scene, Joan Frank’s Because You Have To: A Writing Life is a collection of essays that, taken together, provide a walking tour of the writing life. Frank’s aim is to form a coherent vision, one that may provide some communion about realities of the writer's vocation that have struck her as rarely revealed. Frank offers what she has learned as a writer not only to other writers, but to those to whom good writing matters. Her insights about "thinking on paper" are never dogmatic or pontifical; rather, they are cordial and intellectually welcoming. Original, witty, and practical, Frank ably steers us through the journey of her own life as a writer, as well as through the careers and work of other writers. Her subjects range widely, from the “boot camp” conditioning of marketing work to squaring off with rejection and envy; from sustaining belief in art’s necessity to the baffling subjectivity of literary perception and the magical books that nourish writers. Frank’s personal journey is wonderfully told, so that what in these essays is particular becomes useful and universal.
