Hi
My names Jude and this is the first forum post I've ever done!
I've been writing for years on and off whenever I've had the time
and performed it in various forms as well. Too many influences
and favourite musicians to list and not sound dull. Don't really
enjoy talking myself up so I'll just leave it at that then.

Welcome to YWS Jude! It sounds like you'll fit in here ^.^ Most of us came from writing a bit for a hobby and finally getting to the internet and coming here. Who are some of those favorite musicians you talked about?

Before you get started it'd be a good thing to read the rules before you do anything big. If you need any help with anything or need something to be explained just PM me or leave a note in my guestbook.

Welcome to the family,
Lupe

Hello and welcome!

Writing on and off, you say? Well, maybe with us you'll manage to keep that more regular ;)

What did you perform?

Hey welcome to YWS :D

What kinds of things do you write most?

Mostly for this site you just need to remember that every piece of work you post you should have done two reviews of other people's work, just to make sure that everyone gets good reviews and then more people will want to review your work.

If you have any other questions you can just PM me, or anyone really, and they'll be happy to help you!

Thanks everyone. I'll make sure and stick to the two review rule.
I guess I'm into lots of different musicians and writers that have
probably influenced whatever I write, any kind of old blues artist
especially. Also French poets, Rimbaud and Verlaine, also Byron,
whoever.
I write music and perform it solo at some places but not too serious.
Just me and my acoustic guitar and have performed some of the
verse at open-mic things whenever
I'm in a city or somewhere where theres a club that does them.
Whatever you write always changes when you read it out loud to other
people

I certainly would but unfortunately I don't have any
recording equipment at hand. Its just a simple
melody over the poem but i like it. I will try and
let you know if anything happens.
Its not often I find somebody interested in his poetry
especially when did you first start reading his
work.

Well my friend first told me about him not long ago, maybe a few months less than a year. I've read most of a Season in Hell just recently, but I'm still not finished.

Do you like Baudelaire? Or Neruda?

Hey, there! How are you? You have a cool name; I like it. ;)

Welcome to YWS, dude. You'll love it here. It's so addicting that it should be illegal. Hahaha. Like the other posters have said before me, please critique 2 things before you post 1 of yours. It's a common courtesy.

Anyway. Welcome to YWS. Er... I already said that.

I'm BBB, BigBadBear, 3B, Jared or any combo thereof. I hope you have an enjoyable time here!~

Just write -- the rest of life will follow.

Would love help on this.
