If you've got the poetry bug too, check out the Free Verse Club! And with social week just around the corner, what better way to share your poetry and encourage others?
The Free Verse Club is also hosting a Free Verse Contest that runs all the way through March 31st. Currently, we have no entries, so why not give it a shot?

EllieMae wrote:Who is ready to write some poetry?
If you were around YWS in 2024, chances are you might have seen an advertisement for the 'Free Verse Club'. Well, I am here to tell you that we are bringing it back this year and totally changing how it runs!How will Free Verse Club Contests work in 2025?
This year, we are going to do 4 contests, which last three months each. Each contest will not have a specific theme, but instead, it will focus on where you are in your 'season' of life. Below are the contest dates:
Contest 1: January 14th-March 31st
Contest 2: April 1st- June 30th
Contest 3: July 1st- September 30th
Contest 4: October 1st- December 31stWhat poems are accepted?
During the time of a contest, there will be a forum in the Free Verse Club open for submissions. Anyone is welcome to submit! There is no limit on how many poems you can submit. So you could submit one, or you could submit way more!
Take a look at the spoiler below to see what is allowed and not allowed.Spoiler! :So, what exactly is the theme? What do I write about?
From today until March 31st, you can submit as many free verse poems as you want about any topic that you feel passionate to write about. You can submit all of your poems in the Contest Thread.
Happy writing and please reach out with any questions!

When I was a minor on the internet, I lied to everyone about my name and continued to go by that alias for years after becoming an adult. I had people convinced it was my real name and I should've kept it that way. I could've been committed to the long con, but I chickened out.
soundofmind It's fine. I like going by "sound" now. It's not a name but my brain thinks of it as one.

How do I explain that I write poetry like it's a stream in my veins but I have nothing but 1 completed NaPo, a singular published poem from when I was 16 and a half finished manuscript from 2018?? Seems like a lot but it's not?
LadySpark I should really get moving on some of this honestly there's good shit going to waste

LadySpark oh my god the bucket of cold water that is the realization that she never drank tea was published 12 years ago....
