Hello and welcome to PoetVentures!
“What sort of creature is a PoetVenture?” you might ask.
Well, perhaps a little
background:
 |
| by unknown graffitti artist, Santiago del Chile |
One of the most inspiring essays I’ve ever read about women
and writing is Virginia Woolf’s A Room of One's Own. In the essay, Woolf discusses female writers’ need for
independent space (literal and figurative) in order to participate in the
literary world. Working as a Peace Corps volunteer in rural Paraguay, for the
past two years I had a hut of one’s own—the
space, means, and time to devote myself to hours of writing.

Coming back to the States, and more importantly, returning
to a life with internet access, I realized that it was time to take the next
step, to transition from a solitary-hut-writer to a participant in the wider
literary world. But how?
The majority of creative writing workshops, classes, and
events I’ve attended emphasize the art of writing. Can’t have poetry without
that. But the art of writing doesn’t really explain how to get other people to
read your writing.

PoetVentures (poetry + adventure) is a quest to answer that
query. Stay tuned for weekly posts about:
- Monthly interviews with emerging artists--not just poets! Learn how other artists are making it happen.
- Poetventures/artspirations--prompts, adventures, and events to inspire artistic creativity.
- (Ghosts of) poets past and present--sharing the work of some of my favorite writers.
- Toolbox--resources, publications, programs, and (un)solicited advice for emerging artists.
- Wildcard--'nuff said.
I hope that PoetVentures will be a resource for other poets,
writers, and artists working towards being “professional artists,” and a way
for all of us to support each other.
For all of you coming over from my delcorazondeamerica blog,

I'M NOW FULFILL FINANCIALLY BECAUSE OF THE LOAN I GOT FROM LFDS .I would like to bring this to the notice of the public about how i came in contact with Mr Benjamin after i lost my job and being denied loan by my bank and other financial institution due to my credit score. I could not pay my children's fees. I was behind on bills, about to be thrown out of the house due to my inability to pay my rent, It was during this period my kids were taken from me by foster care. Then i set out to seek for funds online where i lost $3,670 that i borrowed from friends which i was rip off by two online loan companies. Until i read about:loan online (247officedept@gmail.com) somewhere on the internet, Still wasn't convince because of what i have been through until a relative of mine who is a clergy also told me about the ongoing loan scheme at a very low interest rate of 1.9%% and lovely repayment terms without penalty for default of payment. I have no choice than to also contact them which i did through text +1-989-394-3740 and Mr Benjamin responded back to me That day was the I'M best and greatest day of my life which can never be forgotten when i receive a credit alert of $400,000.00 Usd loan amount i applied for. I utilized the loan effectively to pay up my debts and to start up a business and today i and my kids are so happy and fulfill. You can as well contact them through email: (247officedept@gmail.com) WhatsApptext helpline: +1-989-394-3740 Why am i doing this? I am doing this to save as many that are in need of a loan not to be victim of scams on the internet. Thanks and God bless you all, I'm Oleksander Artem from Horizon Park BC , Ukrain.
