my creative writing teacher told me today "not to use rhymes in my poetry until I have at least a year of experience in writing poetry"

to me, it sounds like utter nonsense

other students who are doing the same course as I am told me that teachers are trying to make us write "trendy," "saleable" stuff, which sounds like a good explanation for this situation

I'm going to write the kind of poetry I like anyway, but send drafts without rhyme and rhythm for marking

it's a shame I'm forced to do so

Only today learnt about !F and created an account. Have to admit, this site is interesting and special, indeed. The idea is quite the thing! I'll be keeping my diary in spite of anything. I like this anonymity so much!

I really enjoy reading other participants, it's so much more sincere here than in any social network.

Such a funny idea, to keep an online diary, which can be read by anybody - and nobody at the same time.

I like a lot that there are no comments on !F. Here I have an impression that I am writing just for myself. I have less concern that my message will be evaluated.

I like Fragmenter very much. Now I have extra motivation to change. It's a big difference – just write to myself in a paper notebook, or write in order to share my thoughts.

Fragmenter is cool – I start to think once and again why I'm so depressed and how I came to be like that.

Fragmenter is the best thing that happened to me this year!
