Haiku Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Dd going-into-8th says she is tired of narrative and descriptive writing. She's a strong writer, and I see her point. She says she wants a poetry-based writing curriculum. Does such a thing exist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa B Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Peace Hill Press puts out a series called The Creative Writer. I wouldn't start at the beginning, maybe jump in around book 3. Classical Writing also puts out a series of poetry writing books. Again, I would probably start with the Intermediate level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haiku Posted January 5, 2015 Author Share Posted January 5, 2015 Excellent! The Creative Writer looks like it would fit the bill very well, and you can't beat the price! Thanks for the suggestion! Any others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverMoon Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 CAP's Art of Poetry is excellent, but it isn't really about writing poetry. The analysis skills learned in AoP would absolutely compliment such a study though. Classical Writing does have poetry based levels. You might also look at Grammar of Poetry from Logos Press.

Pronghorn Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 The Grammar of Poetry by Roman Roads Media. My daughter loved it and learned a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
