How can a social network of pin-up posters inspire a person to write poetry? Visualization is the key. Pinterest continues to be the most popular online social network uniting web users with an endless community and collection of image boards. This social media channel continues to expand creativity, imagination and vision into personalized online social scrapbooking. There is something deeper than one can fathom that captivates followers and fascinates those who browse, pin, complain or just like a pinner’s board.

Pinterest inspires a word creator to create poems and other compositions based on image boards. When facing writer’s block, scanning personal or recently pinned boards on the Pinterest home page will connect a poet to the emotion behind shared pins, while generating and developing a window of ideas to write about. .

Poets find fascinating images or illustrations, inspirational boards, and ideas worth exploring. A myriad of compositions can result simply by pinning or noting pictures, books, or quotes to individual boards. Pinterest boards are poetry unto themselves. The boards tell a story and make a unique statement about the personality of the individual pinner, without the need for verbalization at times.

Pinterest is also an ideal avenue for sharing your written work and tailoring your platform to attract an audience of fellow writers, editors, or editors. It is estimated that more than 4 million people visit Pinterest every day. If writers and poets aren’t part of the Pinterest social media scene, they’re missing out on an opportunity to expose their genre to a potentially lucrative mass audience.

Many networks of writers, poetry foundations, and publishers use Pinterest to post organization announcements, information, poetry books, poets, related events, and literary landmarks from their archives. This online bulletin board can serve as a creative outlet and generator of ideas, inspiring, exposing and engaging users, poets and wordsmiths with digital images.
