So, we've just got about a month left before I embark on my second annual NaPoWriMo. In honor of National Poetry Month, llast year I declared April to be my personal National Poetry Writing Month. I'll be doing it again, writing a poem each day and posting it to VersAtile, my NoPoWriMo blog. Last year, the thought of writing a poem a day for an entire month seemed like a pretty big challenge. A year later, it's sort of become par for the course...I write at least four to seven poems a week.

NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), which takes place in November, has become a pretty big internet phenomenon, and people who would normally never try writing a novel go ahead and plug away for an entire month. It's a good opportunity to stretch yourself intellectually. Maybe NaPoWriMo could be the same way. Whether you're the type of person who dashes off poems in all their odd moments, or you haven't written one since you were required to for Fourth Grade English, if you're interested in doing NaPoWriMo, let me know! Maybe we can cross-link in mutual support, or find other ways to express our NaPoWriMo solidarity.
