NaPoWriMo 2015!

Rydia · 2015-03-11T23:17:12Z

We're getting prepared well ahead of schedule this year so you've got no excuse not to take part! If you already know what I'm talking about, sign up below. If you don't know then read on! NaPoWriMo is when some crazy poets (like @Meshugenah) set ourselves the task of writing 30 poems in just one month. The traditionalists will try to write one poem every day, but as long as you've got 30 poems by the end of April, you have officially beaten the challenge! The event starts on April 1st and the only rule is that you may not write any poetry until then. You can, however, jot down ideas for poems or make a list of themes. Some people like to use one theme for the whole event and have all thirty of their poems revolve around it, but others find it easier to go with the flow and write whatever comes to mind. Feel free to ask questions in this thread!

I realised that half term was in the middle so for two weeks at least, I have no excuse not to.

Okay, I give up. I'm in.

We're all stories in the end.

I think of you as a fairy with a green dress and a flower crown and stuff.

I'm in! After not doing it last year and not writing for months this will be a massive challenge! But it's Easter holidays so I can do it

Don't let the Nargles bite.
And don't let a dementor kiss you good night.

It's a charm actually. It keeps away the Nargles- Luna

Well I mean, I would be horrible if I didn't join the commotion lol. 30 poems in 30 days? Sounds like a blast.

My favorite soundtracks, are the ones that pull me away from every other sound.

...*finds old folder with unused list of story themes.*

*coughs politely*. Yes, I am in, of course. I'm NOT following the traditions, though. I missed the first day, anyway. 30 poems by the end of April? Not sure if I can make it, but I can sure as heck try!

So, like the one called A Poet's Universe, is it just a little behind or is it not daily? XD Sorry for all the questions, I'm a noob at this NaPo thing.

It's a little behind but @Audy says in the first post you can win up to 30 gems so I'm sure it will get caught up.
