NaPoWriMo 2018
I did NaPoWriMo two years ago. In the last few months I’ve had loads of compliments for my poetry chapbook, My Body. No Apology, so I’d like to produce some more poems and make a follow up chapbook. Much of the raw material from NaPoWriMo last time was not so great. I guess it’s all…
