My Poetry

I enjoy dabbling in poetry, even though it isn't my forte. My favorite challenges are new forms of structured poetry, as well as exploring sound devices such as alliteration, assonance, and consonance. My fiction went to the next level when I learned to incorporate those devices into my regular writing.

I hope you enjoy this sampling of my "hobby!" Any comments and feedback are welcomed, either through my blog or email: heftynicki(at)writing(dot)com.
