National Poetry Month Challenge

article image placeholderUploaded by @FromSilence
Good morning, Swell community. This is from Silence, as I'm known on here. And I wanted to issue something of a writing challenge to everybody. I wanted to give you plenty of time to prepare for it because you see, at least here in the United States, april is National Poetry Month. And that has a significance to me. And I'll get into that in a minute

I love this idea, and it really makes me look forward to April. I can't wait to hear what you post. And I'll try posting some stuff, but maybe not every day, but I'll try

Hi there. I just wanted to say I think that's a great idea. And I'm into it. I'm not sure about every day, but I have a lot of old works and new ones that I'm working on, so don't know how great you all think they are, but they're good to me, and I think that's what matters. So I am, I'm into it. And I set my calendar. Thanks

Thank you so much for saying that you're interested in participating. I'm glad that this isn't just like some bizarre idea that no one else is interested in. And to be absolutely clear, the whole one a day thing is entirely my standard. It does not have to be anybody else's. And that's partly because I was able to do it last year with no preparation at all. And I'd like to see what I can do with that standard again

And that's just because it does sound like a great challenge. Not because I think there's rules like that, but I'm excited to do it. I can't wait to see it unfold. So what do we do? Are we all just to post our own pages? I'm fairly new to this whole swell thing, so do we post our own page? Is there a forum or something? Like, you'll bring up a topic and everybody post there?

I want it to encourage people, especially those who have never tried this before, I'd like them to be able to think, hey, I've got a month, we've got a shot at due doing something different. Let's go ahead and write something. So hopefully that's sufficient to help you get going

Again, I appreciate the response. And yeah, it sounds like a plan. So I'll get started on that. And I think it's awesome idea. Again, thank you so much
