Thanks to all during April! Thoroughly enjoyed the regular writing! I posted 69 poems but actually wrote just over 70. I just can't believe that! But it was fun!

All of the other buttons worked...i just can't seem to get this new one to. Anyone else having problems or is it just me?? it’s been more difficult than i thought; but i made it through. most of the poems aren’t of good quality; but there are a couple keepers. all of them will stay on my blog site; why not? it was fun, despite a bit of pain:)

I consider the 30 poems drafts. And when I took a look at them, I decided that 19 of the poems were keepers. For those who completed NaPoWriMo, I have a meme up. Come by and fill it out. Congrats on making National Poetry Month a community effort. I’m glad that folks tried, maybe even completed, NaPoWriMo. I consider the 30 poems drafts.

I did write over 30 poems but some were just rough drafts and I did not write every day. I'm in the process of posting all of them and will, hopefully, have that done after school today. As far as using this site after the end of April: Absolutely! It's the best one for a variety of poetry-related subjects. It forces us to go beyond our comfort zone (like with sci-fi!) but, I've found, that really helps me grow. Sure it's painful sometimes, like I think this week's will be, but it's worth it in the long run. Thank you, again, for all the work involved in keeping this site going and keeping the ideas fresh!

I think this is one of the best group Poetry Blogs. Thanks for the great work and the quality of what is here. I have found the interviews that you have excellent as well. I think the NaPoWriMo has been excellent, but have found I am petering out on being able to produce daily poems....There have been a couple days to push myself to produce a poem, but was disappointed in the poems that I did in that manner on other days. Weekly prompts on a regular basis seem more manageable, but the daily has been fun :-) I will continue to come to the Prompts and the Get Your Poem On after this month.
