Robert Lee Brewer, the editor of the 2011 Poets Market is hosting a Poem-a-Day Challenge in honor of National Poetry Month. (This is a great activity for poets like me who need a little kick-start.)
Guidelines during the month (from the Writers Digest Blog) :
* Poets should write a poem each day of April. (After all, this is the main goal of a poem-a-day challenge, right?)
* Following the daily prompt is optional. (However, I will only consider poems at the end of the month that follow the prompts and specify which prompt prompted them.)
* Posting poems on the Poetic Asides site in the Comments section is optional. (Reason: I know some poets have voiced concerns regarding the difficulty in posting comments and the possibility that posting can make a poem considered “published” in the eyes of some publishers.)
* Participation is free.
* No registration is required.
* I will not be able to delete poems once they are added to the Comments section.
Go to Poetic Asides to read the daily challenges and read the rest of the guidelines!
Happy Poem Making!
