I write who I am
"I write who I am" is a book of poetry, written by the Upstart Plus Poets, edited by
Harry Owen and initiated and managed by
Shireen Badat.
Upstart is a Newspaper Project in Grahamstown, which is closely related to the Grocott's Mail and a very inspiring and active partner of the
VSA. The Upstart members were taught by Harry Owen, a local poet, how to write poetry.
Harry then compiled the book "I write who I am" and it was releases during the 2011 National Arts Festival in Grahamstown. Here, we proudly present the content of the book online on awareNet.
All poets are members of this project and can be found in the side column. Please, feel free to visit their personal profile pages by clicking on their names. You can leave comments about their poems on this project page (to your right in the side column) or at the authors profile pages. You can also send them personal messages by clicking on your Inbox (in the main menu). They will be very happy to hear from you!
We hope you will enjoy this extraordinary compilation of young poetry!
