    @sir-leeds Thank you so much for your thoughtful answer. 🙂

    The word count goal has a conundrum for me. You brought up a great point that stories and poems are so different. I think that word count might work against my poetry. I’m not sure, but it seems like stories are better for word count goals.

    This month I’m going to log all of the words that in write my poems, but I think I may also try some flash fiction and short stories too.

    I usually try to read/write/edit some poetry every day, so I already have that as a regular habit. This month, I’ll your advice and try to edit other people’s poetry more and take walks, etc, to enhance my creativity.

    I’m about to become a full-time college music major, but I’m hoping to find a mentor in the English department who can help me with my poetry.

    Thank you!!
