Nope, not Margaret Atwood. You know me very well.
And as for my mentor, he wrote sonnets and he wanted to distance himself from Dante. Think of Italian poets.
Okay, new approach ;-)) I'm not sure about calling Petrarch a poet - he was much more than that. Perhaps he was also your guide? And you, writing friend, who is modern and yet only processes old stuff: is your name perhaps GPT, Chat GPT?
No, not chat GPT. I write children's books and novels too. And I was influenced by Russian authors and Mark Twain.
