A little space for original poetry. (literature.cafe)
 

[email protected]

I've wanted to start this community for a while. I feel a lack of original writing on Lemmy. Poetry tends to be short form and more accessible to many.

I intend to post my own writings, including some of my most personal stuff; writings not a single soul has seen. I would love to have you all join in, as lurkers, as posters, as poets, as enthusiasts. I look forward to seeing this community grow!

It's November. Will you write anything? Will it even be with NaNoWriMo? in c/[email protected]

I swear my writing mediums get shorter and shorter by the year. I hated poetry and now i write poetry since it can be a day long project

Never tried it. Feels really overwhelming. I'm what they (and they is me) call a form based writer, I'll write 5 short stories in a weak and then struggle to write anything again for 4 months.

This is a short story from the collection 'Men without women'.

Here's a link to Anna's archive:

https://annas-archive.org/search?index=&page=1&q=Men+without+women+murakami&sort=

Otherwise you can read it from the link by bypassing the paywall using the extension, bypass paywalls clean d.

Good luck! And I do strongly suggest getting the extension anyways. Even if you intend to download the book for this story.

If you liked Norwegian Wood, you'll love this. Honestly I like most of his work and think this is worth reading anyways but perhaps I'm a bit biased.

You'd better in c/[email protected]
