What to Expect: Discussions and Book Reviews

Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet

Hello!

My last semester in college has now officially started and I am thrilled to be one step away from graduating. Because my workload is pretty heavy this semester my posts may seem sparse but I will not disappear completely.

What to Expect from me by the end of January and in February,

Book Reviews:

“Writers Gone Wild” by Bill Peschel

“Imaginations” by William Carlos Williams

“Gotham Writers’ Workshop: Writing Fiction”

Discussions:

I will be emphasizing on short short stories and fiction for the next few months due to my increasing interest in writing in both styles. If anyone has any suggestions or would like me to tackle a specific topic related to these styles please leave a comment below. I would love to have an online discussion on this topic and involve as many writers as possible.

Thank you to all my followers and regular readers that continue to stick with me and read my work! I am deeply grateful for your attention and dedication.

-Alina

 

Poem #132 (Stained Memories)

Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet2 Comments

Minds flayed and slashed

against the pavement

the hot boiling sun looming

down upon them

cooking them in the heat.

There are memories and

thoughts now dried

up and smudged

staining the ground.

 

Thank you for reading my work! I hope you will return in the future! 

-Alina

p.s. I have changed the titles of my “Free Hand” poems to just “Poem” this is just something I decided to do. I think it is more straightforward and makes more sense than just “Free Hand” even though all the poems in the format are technically free hand poems.
