PortaPoet: Poems & Battles

PortaPoet is your poetry companion. Intimidated by what it takes to write a sonnet? Don't be. PortaPoet has live guidance for many popular forms, sonnets included. Syllable, rhyme, meter and other poem form guidance as you write. * Write: Was that ten syllables, or eleven? PortaPoet counts as you type, shows which lines should rhyme and whether they do, and marks the meter where a line drifts off its beat. Tap a line and the notes for that line sit right under it. * Share: A poem deserves readers. Publish yours and other poets can read it, like it and comment. Follow the poets you enjoy, and their new work lands on your home screen. * Battle: Cake or pie? Pick a side and throw down. Call out another poet head to head, or post an open challenge and let anyone take the other side. Write for your team, and when the battle ends readers vote. Share the link and your friends can vote for you! * Collaborate: What will another poet do with your opening line? Write it, hand it over, and find out. Take turns writing the poem and share your collaboration. * Learn: What makes a villanelle a villanelle? The Poetry Glossary breaks down each form with a classic poem marked up line by line, so you can see the rules at work. One tap starts your own. * Read: Every poet starts as a reader. The Poem Library gathers classic poetry by form, by topic and by poet, from Basho to Dickinson. Bookmark anything you want to come back to. * Custom poetry forms: None of the supported forms quite cut it? Create your own! PortaPoet will give line by line guidance for those too. * Free: Writing, publishing, rhyming dictionary, battles, collaborations, the Poem Library, the Poetry Glossary, following other poets, and comments. All of it, at no charge. Haiku guidance is free too. * PortaPoet Plus (Paid): Unlocks line by line guidance for every other supported form, and for forms you build yourself.
