So, I did NaNoWriMo in November. I wrote *part of* a 50,000 word novel that so far has sat dormant in my GoogleDocs. Since I championed through that month, I figured a great way to celebrate April as National Poetry Month is to participate in NaPoWriMo. Write a poem a day for a month. It’s that easy. No crazy word counts. No sweating over characters, dialogue or the “arc” of the story. How refreshing.

As a former graduate student in poetry who has lazily called herself a poet in the last year, I purpose to NaPoWriMo away. Anyone care to join?
