Honest feedback required please

[alio]

I'm thinking of doing a little sideline poetry business and I would really appreciate some honest feedback. I have experience writing for the BBC (comedy and drama) but my passion is children's poetry.

I'm thinking of writing some quirky bespoke poems for kids. I would get parents to give me their names and a few details they would like including in the poem and then I would write a 50 -100 line poem about their LO which would be sent out on a presentation scroll....

What do you think?

Oh and Wobbs and mods, this really isn't any kind of advert I just need some advice. xxxx

I think it sounds a great idea! I'd love something like that about Charlie. x

 

[jenstar]

No, personally I wouldn't buy this type of thing.

 

[alio]

Anybody else? Positive or negative... Just need to get a feel of what people think? Thanks. xx

 

[thelilbump]

i'm not sure i would buy that type of thing for myself but i could see it being a gift idea for many. Unless you give it a go though you'll never know so i think you should try it! Good luck x

I would possibly buy this. My mom has bought them before.

 

[mylittlebubs]

I don't think i would just buy it though, sorry. But if it's written on a nice card, I would.
or if you have specially made gift for mummies with their babies' pic or poem, that would be lovely

 

[princess_bump]

Cheers Wobbs. Yeah they would definitely be classy and every single one would be completely different..... Not like those shite books you get for Christmas where you just get the company to insert a few names here and there. I think I'm going to give it a go.

Thanks. xx

I was just going to mention these! I remember getting one for a birthday when I was little and I thought it was amazing that the story quoted my name, my street and my family's names!

I'm sure if it was a personal composition, people would be interested in buying it for a gift maybe for Christenings or 1st birthdays, things like that. Especially if it mentioned specific presonality traits relating to the LO.

Good luck with it!

I think it sounds great as others have said it would be great if they were personalised with little nicknames etc about your LO I would also like them for my oldest two as well as I find kids are always interested in when they were little. I don't really do cutesy so maybe you could do some that were a bit more... sorry can't think of the right word, I'll stick with not so cute!! lol
