Discuss what you're doing with your NaPo here! Have you got a set theme for your poems or are you winging it?

I am most certainly winging it and am very out of practise so this could be wonderfully horrific!

I'm pretty unfamiliar with this whole month-dedicated-to-writing-poetry thing, but I kind of get the idea of what's going down. Is it just writing a poem every day for a month?

Exactly! From the 1st April to the 30th, the aim is to write a poem every day, but there's no strict rules so if you're super busy on say the 9th, then you're okay to write two poems on the 10th to make up for it.

Sounds awesome! So what is the day when we have to not write any poetry until April 1?

You can write poetry through all of March if you wanted! Just be aware that no poem written before the 1st April will count toward NaPo

Ahh, I gotcha. Can't wait!!

I'm not doing a theme, I'm just winging it. It's my first year doing NaPoWriMo, so I'm kind of nervous.

I was just talking to a friend about how i'm going to do it again this year.
No theme though. I just want to have fun. ^_^

I'm really excited about it! This year, I plan to go the whole month (I apparently stopped at some point in 2008, the last time I tried). No specific theme, although I would like to play with a more structured form at some point and I also really want to use the word "ferrozine" because I work with it and it turns iron a pretty purple color. I'm also subscribed to "Wheel of Prompts" for this reason.

I'm going to wing it, this being my first year trying this idea, but I'm so excited I just can't wait!

Jumping in randomly, but really, how cool are those thread names of yours 8D

*admires people who can actually write poetry*

Good luck, all ^^

Whoa! I will write

Yeah, being a baby poet, the likelihood of me crashing and burning is great, but I'm all for trying. I don't really have a theme, but I have a feeling it's going to revolve around some issues going on with my family right now because that's what I'm thinking about most. I can't wait!

Um! My only goal is to have a star (denoting I made a comment in the thread) on every thread in NaPo by the end of the month!

That's an excellent goal!
