Is there a book on the craft of writing that you recommend to poets?
This book explores so many elements of craft that transcend genre: how to harness tension and keep it taut, how an image can expand and evolve, and how to hold a reader’s attention through narrative stakes (yes, poems need stakes!) and careful variations in tone and syntax that keep a reader on their toes. Palahniuk also offers practical advice, including how to get people to show up for your readings. He’s irreverent and holds nothing back, making you laugh while speaking openly and honestly about what it takes to build a writing life, both on the page and beyond it. It’s a rare craft book that manages to be both deeply instructive and wildly entertaining.
