Today is Shakespeare’s Birthday.
He wrote most of his works within 24 years. 154 sonnets, 39 plays, and 3 narrative poems. Most of these were actually written in a single decade. When he did this, he became a study and a muse that has stood the test of time.
When Taylor Swift writes a 31 song album, she’s writing too much, using too many words, all her songs sound the same, and is wasting breath by making so many songs.
This is ART. This is POETRY.
Let the girl write!!
p.s. Shakespeare began writing his plays in 1589 and finished in 1613.
Happy Birthday, William Shakespeare!
