Hi All,

The big debate in my mind is whether I should completely reject the thought of continuing with rhymes. From what I've researched, publishers don't want it.

I have done some poetry but most of my stuff are these short stories that rhyme.

Should I scrap that modality of writing?

Thanks for everyone's thoughts.

Yep, scrap it.

Everything, anything that rhymes a little bit for kids gets automatically compared to green eggs and ham, Sam I am.... and Seuss was/is still King in that dept.

For YA, literary etc... I guess its not on today's market except is poetry.

Plus, its kinda harder to write that way isn't it?
