When you find a poet you enjoy online do you ever go back and read old poems of theirs (ones not on the first page)? Do you leave comments for those?

How often do you leave comments online? Anyone willing to admit they are just a lurker? If so, why?

Why I Started PWB

2009-10-24T01:54:00.001-05:00

I started Poets Who Blog because I wanted a way to stop "Screaming into the dark," of the blogoshphere. That means posting and never knowing if anyone would read or care that I posted.

I wanted to create a supportive community.

I longed to bring poets together to review each other's work. We've had a lot of bumps a long the way but there were awesome times to. Playing poetry tag, hosting poetry carnivals, add a line poems, jigsaw poems, and our monthly poetry collections are all fond memories I have.

The best part of PWB though was the poetry groups that we made where we reviewed each other's work. Because those put into action the true purpose and meaning of this site.

Reading this post reminded me of why I started PWB.
