Frostic Reading(extra Credit)

        The frostic readings was an eye opener to me as I have never been to one or probably wouldn't of gone. The poetry was incredible to me. My favorite one of the first speaker was empire of nerds. With the comedy and details that really brought the listener in. It had such a relevant theme in todays society. My favorite piece of the second reader was "we ride back". All of his poems were about normal people so the listener could really understand what was happening and maybe relate in some way. The last poet wrote about criminal cases that were still unsolved with my favorite being Texas 7 which was about 7 criminals who escaped jail and killed a cop on their way. All were great speakers and poets also how they were all from Western was really cool. What I learned from them about writing was that you need to stay focused on the story and not drift off. Also, use great detail in the story to put the reader in the place so they can visualize what is going on. Lastly, make sure you put some story of each character so you can connect with one as someone is reading it.
