The Poeting Process:
Step 1)
Think of 3-5 words.
Smile and breathe deep and pick *specific* words.
Make a list on your phone.
Ex. “Magnetic Love,” rather than “Love”
“Curious,” rather than “Interesting”
“Backpacking,” rather than “Adventure”
If I’m busy, please include a couple sentences (otherwise tell them to me). Answering one of these questions:
Your biggest fear? Your hopes/visions for your future?
For couples: length of relationship, love languages, what drew you to each other, and what gets you through your hard moments?
Step 2)
