At the beginning of the semester the students of Exclusive Ink dove in to new ways of how to write their poetry. They like to get feedback from their peers and the mentors of how to make their poetry stand out or what words/phrases they should use to make stanzas stand out. The students are very determined when they walk into the room. They instantly begin to let their creativity come alive on paper. The prompts are a great starter for the students to let their imagination flow.
