About the book

Don't Be Afraid to be Bad contains 75+ writing prompts curated by Ollie Schminkey to help poets of all skill levels approach new forms and perspectives, while steering writers away from ideas of 'perfection'. Pulling examples from Button Poetrys catalogue, Schminkey highlights the work of their print-mates and invites readers to engage with each new work. Their encouragement focuses on writers getting out the first draft- the most important step in any writing process!
