I started writing poetry specifically around sixteen-years-old. I read a book by Rupi Kaur and that gave me the perspective that poetry could be anything I wanted it to be. It gave me a lot of freedom to put my thoughts on paper. That was something that was inspiring for me, but I always loved to write.” Is poetry the literary genre that you have always wanted to take part in when writing? urn:oclc:record:1391660530 Foldoutcount 0 Identifier home0000hans Identifier-ark ark:/13960/s2tcg8n343n Invoice 1652 Isbn 9798754263956 Ocr tesseract 5.1.0-1-ge935 Ocr_detected_lang en Ocr_detected_lang_conf 1.0000 Ocr_detected_script Latin Ocr_detected_script_conf 1.0000 Ocr_module_version 0.0.16 Ocr_parameters -l eng Old_pallet IA-NS-0001275 Openlibrary_edition

I guess this wasn’t just my cup of tea. I wish there was mention that it’s not only poetry BUT ALSO quotes / poetry prose, because one sentence is not poetry for me. I’ve learned the power of vulnerability. I feel like I grew up always hiding my feelings and that’s probably why I ended up writing them all down. I never understood how important it is to be vulnerable with people. It connects you to the whole world to be vulnerable with other people.” Do you find it harder to write when you’re not going through a difficult/emotional experience? When I started writing it I was lost in so many areas of my life. I had just gotten out of a romantic relationship, so I was in a really rough spot with heartbreak. But I was also really unsure of my direction in life, what I was pursuing, and unsure of who I am. I think part of that was going to college and having to redefine my identity on my own terms. Homewas kind of me finding myself again after all that I’d been through. That’s why I titled it Home.“ How did your writing process change after your first book was published?

Home by Whitney Hanson – eBook Details I Remember The Last Night I Spent In Your Room I’ve Never Really Liked People Touching Me But Something About The Way You Always Smelled Like Honey And How You Held Me Without Hesitation Made It Easy For Me To Find Comfort In Touch Again I Remember The Last Night I Spent In Your Room You Told Me That You Slept With Her My Skin Began To Crawl

And Somehow Honey Started To Smell Like Danger You Became A Beehive Bursting With Everything I Was Afraid Of I Remember The Last Night I Spent In Your Room I’m Not Sure Why I Didn’t Run When The Bees Filled My Head And Venom Stung In My Veins And You Tried To Hold On To Me But All I Felt Was Poignant Pain I Remember One thing that I’ve had to work through and work past is that when I wrote home I was pretty much entirely writing it for myself. This was a method of coping. Now that I have this audience, it changes the way that I perceive my writing. When I’m writing and thinking about this audience reading these things it can sometimes mess with my authenticity and creativity. I’m trying to connect with people and meet all these goals. I think the real way to do that is to just write authentically. It’s been hard to adjust knowing that all these people are going to be reading my work. So, I think that’s probably changed my writing a little bit, but I’ve tried to keep it as authentic as possible.” What inspired Climate? Several Men Applauded This Suggestion, For Lord Smith Was A General Favourite. She Repeated It To Herself With A Frown. I Sing Of George Augustus Chadd, Who’d Always From A Baby Had A Deep Affection For His Dad In Other Words, His Father; Contrariwise, I've haven't read much poetry but this was amazing. I don't know how else to say it but I loved it all. And this book, as much as I wanted to like it, I really couldn't. It was just boring and disappointing. I feel that it's just the second version of "Home", which I also read, but that one I wouldn't even call poetry - it was more like a diary and love advices, than poems.The Bees Aren’t Going To Go Away But They Are Going To Change With You Sometimes They Will Be Chaotic Sometimes They Will Rest Sometimes They Will Give You Sweet Honey And Sometimes They Will Remind You Of How Much Love Can Sting But If You Can Find A Home Within Yourself And Make Peace With Your Bees You Will Be Alright Stormy is when the storms are unleashed within you. This section is sadness and heartbreak that accompanies lost love.Foggy is about losing your identity. The storm may have passed, but after heart break we often go through a process of redefining ourself.Sunny is a glimpse of joy and new love. It is the feeling of butterflies in your heart and sun on your skin. Climate is a reminder that all of the weather we encounter creates this beautiful experience that is life. It is a section of appreciation for both the rainy and sunny days.“ What is something you learned about yourself after writing these two books? I think poetry has always been something that’s really natural for me. I have ADHD so I feel like my thoughts kind of come in small bursts of inspiration rather than one novel of inspiration. And so I think that’s part of the reason that poetry comes more naturally to me. But, it wasn’t something I was really pursuing. Being an author wasn’t something that had been a life goal for me. It was a side passion project that I always worked on, It was a way of coping with things. It became this thing where I don’t really know how I got here.” What is your favorite book? This collection also does an amazing job of using metaphors throughout the pieces. The collection has a clear theme of using weather metaphors and figurative language that begins from the title and the cover art. While each poem doesn’t mention weather specifically, there is often at least a connection that can be made between the topic at hand and some sort of weather. The figurative language also lends itself so well to the imagery she can create in these pieces. She takes intangible things like emotions and turns them into tangible things like weather. One reason why I love poetry is because it can do things with words that some other works just can’t do. I think that the topics in which she chose and the language she used to present them do just that. I am incredibly impressed by what she can accomplish in this collection.
