NaPoWriMo 2023
People who have followed by blog for a while will know that I have done a NaPoWriMo a few times previously. The basic idea is that I write a poem every day for the month of April. The woman who started it, Maureen Thorson, provides prompts each day, but they’re optional, so sometimes I don’t…

I’ve found the book quite interesting, some of the attitude challenges have been insightful, some of the activities have been fun. I decided some…
