Awaken the Bard within with this series of letters taking the fledgling poet from page to stage. Inspired by Rainer Maria Rilke's classic 'Letters to a Young Poet', they are written to the author's younger self 12 years previously when he began to write and perform poetry for the first time. Penned in an informal style, but with the benefit of hard-won experience, the letters mix humility, humanity and humour. Techniques in composition and performance are shared between initiate and novice in an easy-to-follow 5 point method. Useful for anyone who wishes to walk the Bardic Path, craft their words for ceremony and celebration, and shine.
