NaPoWriMo!


The month of April is NaPoWriMo month! So what is NaPoWriMo???

"NaPoWriMo, or National Poetry Writing Month, is an annual project in which participating poets attempt to write a poem a day for the month of April.

NaPoWriMo was founded in 2003, when poet Maureen Thorson decided to take up the challenge (modeled after NaNoWriMo, or National Novel Writing Month), and challenged other poets to join her. Since then, the number of participants has gotten larger every year, and many writers' organizations, both national and local, organize NaPoWriMo activities."

Visit the official website for more on NaPoWriMo and learn how to participate!

I'll be doing NaPoWriMo and I'll post a few of my poems on this blog. Maybe. I think posting a poem everyday will be too annoying for you awesome followers, so I'll post a few a week.

I hope you participate and if you are, please link your blog/website to Mr. Linky below!
