NaPoWriMo 2013!

Well, it's that time of the year again when some of us crazy poets set ourselves the task of writing 30 poems in just one month! That's a poem a day for thirty whole days! 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 just go with the flow and write whatever comes to mind. It also doesn't have to be strictly one poem every day. If you're feeling particularly inspired on one day, you might write three or four poems and then not feel up to any the next day and so take that one off. It's entirely up to you! Who's thinking of participating then? Any questions?

You can make a thread here and post all your poems from one to thirty. You can also subscribe to other peoples threads if you want updates from them.

I hope this makes sense.
