ONS Top 10: March and April
You might have noticed that last month I didn’t do my usual Top 10 post… mainly because it coincided with my short hiatus from ONS. But I know there are always newcomers to the site who might not want to trawl through the archives, so here are the best posts of the past two months… enjoy!
The Glasgow Review got the Featured Magazines treatment.
I started the ‘Favourite YouTube Poems’ series, which so far has included Taylor Mali, Rives, George Watsky, Sarah Kay and your suggestions!
Some tips on reading your poetry aloud.
Some possible solutions to the Young Scottish Poets “problem”.
How to get a regret-free literary tattoo: Part One, and Part Two. More to come!
How to be a nice guy (or girl) in the poetry world.
Guest Post by poet Mairi Sharratt: Writers and Depression.
The first ONS Etsy Finds.
Found online: Cheryl Maddalena.
Guest Post by poet, critic and editor William Soule: Writers to Read — Charles Bukowski
Also… I announced this collection’s Top 100 poems // You Old Soak became available (& more)… and was reviewed! // I got podcasted // Poet’s Corner #5 // new RT bracelets // RT16 arrived // as did RT17!

Wow, thanks for this rundown! As a “newcomer” I really appreciate it!
I really liked the article on how to be a nice guy or girl in the poetry world- I am just getting out there and these were very wise words indeed!
