National Poetry Writing Month for 2014 is just two days away!
I've been so busy this year, I almost forgot it was coming. But I'm up for the challenge again!
I will be doing a poem a day for the month and posting it on Hello Poetry: http://hellopoetry.com/mary-mccray/. You can read more about the NaPoWriMo challenge here: http://www.napowrimo.net/
My parents are visiting us half-way through the month for a week and a half so I've constructed a theme for myself this year, 30 Poems about Language, and will be sampling aphorisms in each poem to help me get it done while hosting company and going to family reunions.
Another poetry month activity I would recommend is a daily check-in to the poetry blog tour on Savvy Verse & Wit. I had a lot of fun last year following the various daily bloggers and their posts, which ranged from discussions of individual poets to ideas for poetry projects to little chats about all aspects of poetry.
