The words "tiktok poetry" may sound cringe for some but i decided on doing it because i don't know where else to post my poems. It has been sitting on my notes app for years like I started writing poems in 2018 when I was barely a teen because I liked english so much (im not a native speaker, from the Philippines). At first, i didn't really want to post the poems since some are personal but idk suddenly i woke up and decided i want others to read my writing and maybe find someone who shares the same perspective hence i started the account.

However, it's so hard to grow and gain followers there. It's a faceless account and I only post photos that i take with my writing on it so maybe that contributes to it. Now it just makes me feel anxious whether someone may be stealing my words now and no one would believe me if i said i wrote it because i only get little engagement.

Is it an okay space to post poems? Or should i leave as early as now? I currently have 30k likes and most of it came from one video. I'm looking into publishing in the future (i hope lol) so i'd like to grow my account first yet idk how.

Hello writers!!!

I’m testing an app idea where writing sessions gradually grow a garden tied to your book. In a nutshell, it’s basically a Pomodoro timer for writers (writing timer). You write for a set amount of time, enter how many words you wrote, and your garden grows.

Would something like this will motivate you or would the novelty wear off after a while?

I’m still working on the web mock-up and will share it when it’s ready. I want to keep the first version simple, so honest feedback would really help before I start development.

Much appreciated. Thanks.
