2. Emily Dickinson
Emily inspired a lot of writers
and thinkers. She wrote over
1800 poets. Born in
Massachusetts her family was
very open but she was still an
introvert. The woman never
married and most friends she
had were just people she wrote
letters to.
3. John Donne
A poet and lawyer who loved writing
poets about love. Such a romantic...
He was into the church and was very
English. He wrote a lot of sonnets. I
guess he just could never find his
perfect woman! Would you fall for
this man's beautiful written artwork?
4. Lord Byron
Lord Byron was the son of a
captain. He also had more
than one wife!
He had a hurtful leg and he
became very sensitive about
that situation. He later got it
corrected by a certain type
of boot. Oh fun fact, he got
seduced by a lot of people
for very little things.
5. Maya Angelou
Maya Angelou, she wrote the
book: I know why the caged bird
sings and they later actually
turned it into a film.
She later became a teacher and
she got asked to speak at a lot of
gatherings. Oh and don't forget
the Grammy she got.
6. Edgar Allan Poe
Edgar had a very tough life.
Want to know why?
Because he actually tried to
only write for a living. He
refused to have a regular job
to provide for himself. He had
a real passion for writing, don't
you think?
