How to Keep a Poetry Notebook
Having a notebook for any poetry is necessary. Writers need a special place to keep all of their special written treasures. A poetry notebook will help keep all of your writing organized and also be easy to carry from place to place for when you want to share your poetry. For the years to come, it will become a great family heirloom to share with children, grandchildren, or perhaps become a published piece of work to share with all of your favorite fans!

#6 is the best tip. I never thought of keeping the blank pages to create a Table of Contents. I may even go back into older notebooks and do this. Thank you!
