Every Sonnet

This book contains a couple of sonnets of mine. One is meta - a sonnet about sonnets. The other is an example that I will show through eight drafts of how it was composed. This illustrates my method for writing poetry. There are lots of other methods, but here you get to see one of my pieces through various iterations until I get to what I think is "finished".

Maybe this will help you in your writing, or maybe it will be purely for our amusement. Either way, feel free to comment on what you see in the process.
