You might know we’re planning another prompt-every-day for those who love (or who have a love-hate relationship with) daily poem-writing in April (which is National Poetry Month in the United States — although there is an international following of writing a poem every day in April, too, so it is not just about the States).
This is a call for prompts because we want to run your ideas, one every day, in April. So here’s what to do:
- Prompts must be no more than 250 words, and we will take the first 30 that we receive.
- Include “NaPoWriMo Prompt” in the subject line of your email as well as your username (e.g., the name you use when you log in) so we can match you up with your prompt and give you the link love.
- Email your submission (in the body of the email — no attachments please) to prompts (at) readwritepoem (dot) org!
We’ll let you know when we’ve got all we need, but don’t delay because we want to be ready come April Fools’ Day.
