How to Write Poetry

Skipped the last entry University of Michigan Series of Poets on Poetry as it seems to contain over a hundred titles, some of which are already on the list. Find those here: https://www.press.umich.edu/browse/series/UM31
At times, the list just said something like "essays by so and so," and I found a book of selected essays. There are two essays by Don Paterson that can be found for free online, on his website and elsewhere, and the Tony Hoagland essay is free on Poetry magazine's website. I listed Virginia Woolf's A Writer's Diary, but I believe there exists a more extensive series of diaries by Woolf.
