                Don't know why I still do this.  One step forward, two back and inch ahead.
  I have given poetry readings, and been a part of a writing group, a large group where I read with them and to them for 6 weeks, so it isn't new stuff, but a new group.

                One thing about most poetry group seminars etc, is that you don't have to write if it won't come and you don't have to read out if you don't want to. Most workshop leaders will respect those rights as absolutes, because the one thing they do not want to do is put someone off. They've been where you are at one time in their career.
  So, grab that last day I say.
