So yesterday I started a project that required me to read through all of the poems in my "Personal Favorites" folder here on DA, then all of the ones I've written since then. That... took a while. As I went from poem to poem I copied and pasted the ones I still liked into a word document on my computer to keep as a sort of portfolio. The plan is to print it up and put it on my bookshelf. One good thing I discovered was that my poetry seems to be getting better, because the more recent the months get the more poems are in the collection. There are 4 from 2007, 3 from 2008, 17 from 2009, and 9 from this year already. Now I just have to read all of the poems that I've written again and make sure I didn't miss any I liked, and then this project will be complete...ish. I'm going to try and make it a living document, going through my new deviations every month or two and adding new ones to it, to keep it up to date.
Once I finish reading everything again I'll edit my "Personal Favorites" folder with just the ones in the portfolio, since those are going to be the only ones I care about.
EDIT: Finished. Thank god. The folder is all set, go check it out.
EDIT 2: Okay, I'm editing some of them, because I do that sometimes, so I will clog your inbox perhaps. Sorry.
