This guide by Patrice Vecchioneencourages new writers of all ages to find their voices, step up and speak their truths, and articulate what matters to them most-both personally and politically-whether it be boldly to an outside audience or just privately for themselves.Young adults are reading and writing and performing poetry more than ever before. Written in short, easy-to-digest chapters by the editor of Ink Knows No Borders,My Shouting, Shattered, Whispering Voiceincludes prompts and inspiration, writing suggestions and instruction, brief interviews with some current popular poets such as Kim Addonizio, Safia Elhillo, and others, and poem excerpts scattered throughout the book.My Shouting, Shattered Whispering Voiceoffers ways to express rage, frustration, joy, and sorrow, and to substitute apathy with creativity, usurp fear with daring, counteract anxiety with the joy of writing one word down and then another to express vital, but previously unarticulated, thoughts. Most importantly, here you can discover the value of your own voice and come to believe that what you have to say matters.
