I always think typescript lends some sort of certainty: at least, if the things are bad, then they appear to be bad with conviction.

Introduction

Does art reflect the times, inform the times, or perhaps both? Is poetry still relevant as an art form in the 21st century?

Why is the written word such a forceful vehicle of expression, and how can it inspire personal and societal change?

And what's all this about the benefits of journaling? What good can it do for me?

This book provides answers to questions about life and the written word from an independently published poet's standpoint.
