The 5th Annual New Year’s Poetry Challenge Starts 12/8!
If you’d like to receive a prompt a day for 30 days to write out the old year and write in the new, this challenge is for you! It is also very low key — write to all the prompts or save them all for later, write one poem or write 30, no one checks up on you. This is just for fun! If you’d like to join us, email us at info@mostpoetry with your email address and we’ll add you to the list.
