Stevie Nicks, the legendary singer-songwriter, has announced that she plans to release a book of poems that never became songs. The book, which is currently untitled, is set to be released in 2024.
Nicks has been writing poetry since she was a teenager, and she has said that she has “thousands” of poems in her collection. However, she has only turned a small fraction of these poems into songs.
“I never write songs. They’re always poems. They’re on paper and I don’t look at them as songs, I look at them as poems,” she says. “If they work themselves into being a song, then I’m really happy. If they don’t, they’re going to go into that secret poetry book that I will someday release. I have all of the songs, before they were songs, so they’re slightly different.”
Nicks and Fleetwood Mac were recently part of the inspiration behind author Taylor Jenkins Reid’s hit 2019 novel “Daisy Jones & the Six.” The book was also adapted into a series and released on Amazon Prime Video in 2023.
Nicks shared her thoughts on social media after watching “Daisy Jones & the Six,” saying she felt “like a ghost” watching her own story.
“In the beginning, it wasn’t really my story, but Riley seamlessly, soon became my story,” Nicks wrote in August about Riley Keough, who portrayed the main character and one of the lead singers, Daisy Jones.
The release of Nicks’ book of poems is sure to be a major event for fans of her music. Her poems are known for their lyrical beauty and their insights into the human condition. It is likely that the book will be a bestseller, and it will be a valuable addition to any fan’s collection.
Nicks’ book of poems is sure to be a fascinating and rewarding read for fans of her music. It is a unique opportunity to experience her creativity in a new way and to learn more about the woman behind the music.
