Adult Relaxation: Summer Edition
So Friday night was my 2nd Adult relaxation gig…Thank you to all that came out! I hope you enjoyed the poetry at least…
It was supposed to be on the beach but it was double booked so we stayed inside. This time there were just comedy and poetry. We could have used more variety as the crowd was a restless crowd with a very short attention span. I loved all the poets that came out and performed. I am inspired by those who challenge themselves and stretch the language barrier and the rules of linguistics to create beautifully painted art called poetry. It is hard to bear your poetic soul for the first time so I am very proud of my Si.Nik artist and Assistant, Cassandra for reading “Heart Hurts.” It is horrible however that the serious poets get overlooked… you are only as good as the performer before you. As poets we had comedians before us and they weren’t making us laugh… as i said it was a tough crowd.
I only read “triangle” and “evaporate” to cater to the attention span of the audience… Those poems will be featured in my upcoming collection of chapbooks, “T.O. Love, Azucar.” Stay tuned for the “Love” buzz party/ 2 yr anniversary of “My Journey…” in December…
My promotions were a hit; I just hope I see some sales improve through the inspiration phrases on the promotions… Although, books weren’t sold, I learned a valuable lesson about how important line ups and audience attention is to the success of your brand.
Until next time.
Poetically Blessed,
Simone Nikkole aka Azucar

I think what you typed was very logical. But, what about this? suppose you were to write a awesome headline? I am not suggesting your content is not good, but what if you added something to possibly get people’s attention? I mean Simone Nikkole » Blog Archive » Adult Relaxation: Summer Edition is a little boring. You should look at Yahoo’s front page and note how they create article titles to grab viewers to open the links. You might add a related video or a picture or two to grab readers excited about what you’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it would bring your website a little bit more interesting.
