Structure before Meaning
Today I will try to write a poem that rhymeswith strong meter and developmentI acknowledge content suffers sometimesin the pursuit of perfect accompaniment Time marches ever onwards, I’m in a hurryto get one thing or another done. Finished before the next one is due. I scurry towards the end, usually diminished Lessened by the need…

NaPoWriMo 2021
For the last few years, in April, I’ve signed myself up to the National Poetry Writing Month, or NaPoWriMo. Modelled of the novel equivalent, NaNoWriMo, in which I also usually participate in, the aim is to write a poem each day in April. This year I’m doing it again. I had a rough start, on…

NaNo-Success

NaNoWriMo 2020
This year will be the ninth time I am attempting NaNoWriMo or National Novel Writing Month. My first time was in 2012 and I have won, reached my goal of 50,000 words, every year since then. I work best with external encouragement and deadlines, and while NaNoWriMo is an (almost) entirely self motivated endeavour it…
