NaPoWriMo is National Poetry Writing Month. It occurs every year. I missed 2018, last month, because I was looking for work.
I do not consider myself a writer, I have always been a poet, so … it is a year late, but perhaps it will be at least entertaining.
The basic activity is to write a verse every day in April. The type of verse as well as the subject/topic is revealed by the activity group, NaPoWriMo, on their website.
I will list the dates, [type of verse], SUBJECT (if applicable) and the title below. As I complete each said verse, I will provide the link here as well as with each posted through Twitter.
I have made a calendar listing the topics/ styles:
7 pieces in progress
4 given up on; prompt too vague
The remainder are blank ATM
