I really appreciate the prompts, ideas and encouragement here! I'll keep posting regular haiku and poetry in other forms along with book reviews, etc. Thanks for rounding us up!

Thank you for the challenge - I may continue the daily practice into and through May - could you launch a support site napowrimomomo (more months) - I am goaded into writing by the sense of communal purpose. (I have not any unsettling anything to derail my dailiness - have been incredibly LUCKY!!)

I have fallen off the NaPoWriMo wagon completely. But I think you - and I - should be pleased to have given it a whirl. There is no shame here. Just life crashing in on well-intended plans. Be well; no guilt! Well, TGR, me, too. I have fallen off the NaPoWriMo wagon completely.

Far from it, in fact. I think I maybe made it five days in. I had a rather large event in my life that stopped me cold and I have yet to be able to manage poetry again (though I'm inching my way back towards it and hope to begin writing again soon). So much for lofty plans! Oh dear, I feel that I should be taken off of the list, as I have NOT been successful in writing every day this month. Far from it, in fact.

I had high hopes for myself when I started this challenge; but have had several days where I've felt unmotivated and perhaps have felt a form of 'writers block". I've 'cheated' a couple of times by using a line or 2 that I've contributed to the "Get Your Poem On"--so I didn't really write a poem but counted those as my poems for the day. Also, I'm only up to #18 as of today, so I guess I could say I haven't written a poem-a-day. But, I'm close...and am keeping up...just a couple of days behind schedule. I love all of this...it truly helps me to think about, and focus on, writing poetry. yes, I want to continue with ReadWritePoem AFTER April.

I can't stop! One night I arrived home late after parent-teacher interviews ( day at school as well) and just had to write a poem for the day before going to bed. I think Iam developing some very serious kind of sickness. But it's so much fun. I'm trying to visit as many poet bloggers as possible to leave a comment as well.
