As they say in the personal ads, are the following always, sometimes, or never okay?
--Parentheses around part of a word, as in "There are many (re)sources for a female poet..."
--Poetic as a (singular) noun
--Problematic as a noun
That's all for now, next installment coming up soon...

My vote:
1)sometimes: yes to (re)vison but not sure about (re)sources?
2)sometimes: when plural
3)never
1) Never.
2) Never. (Only plural as noun)
3) Never.
Makes you want to write for us, doesn't it.
I'm interested in the context of #1. What (re)sources? I'm female. I'm a poet. Is there something useful at the end of that sentence?
