Am I the only one who sorts poetry collections by emotional theme? It revived my writing groove.

TBH, I was hitting major writer's block until I re shelved all my poetry books by the feelings they evoke, like 'whimsical' or 'heartache.' This lets me quickly pull verses that sync with my headspace, which is clutch for drafting. I paired this with carving out a tiny, distraction-free zone in my apartment, just a cushion and a string of fairy lights. Now, when I wanna jot down lines, the ambiance totally matches the poetic mood. It's a simple DIY project that took a weekend but made my creative process way smoother. Give it a shot if your inspiration feels stale.

My midnight blue section for somber moods is totally my most reached-for shelf now. Honestly did the same thing with my old Sylvia Plath collections last fall and it completely changed my drafting.
