Op probably has Funco on her shelves. That level of derp.

Come to the end of understanding and seeking endlessly for more. Fiction is truth told through the medium of lies. As if you can't learn from fiction by example.

Hey /lit/, what are some good books to help me learn more about prosody/scansion/forms? I have a decent background, having read The Ode Less Travelled, memorized the forms in it, and also having read Poetic Designs by Stephen Adams. Are there any more advanced books? I want to try to teach myself to have a very advanced understanding of poetry. Is Fussell's Poetic Verse and Poetic Form good? I heard that it is more advanced than the other books, but I wanted to hear what you guys thought of it. And by the way, I already read a lot of poetry on the side, so there's no need to tell me to "just read poetry." Thanks

Do you have to read a lot of good prose in order to be able to write it?

Some shadowy rulers want you in charge what gets read in high school. Pick five books to become mandatory reading.

Is cyberpunk a dead genre? Last decent books were Starfish and Windup Girl, both biopunk.
