This is fascinating. Thanks for this inside look into your process. I never write by hand because I just hate the way my handwriting looks and get distracted by it, so I opt for the clean screen instead. I wonder if that hinders me in some way.

try it and see how it feels! I will say though I do find it really hard to change my process--I started out writing by hand and now that just feels "right" when I sit down to begin a poem. But I do like how it gives more space for words to snake their way in there.

Thank you for adding the link and sharing it! I did not make that connection initially, but you are right, the love aspect does work with the form :)
