The deadline for the November challenge has been changed to November 23. That will give everyone a little more time to write a poem designed to meet the challenge. Read the rules in the previous post.
Wilda
Beginning in June 2009, a writing prompt has been posted on Wilda Morris's Poetry Challenge at the beginning of each month. You are invited to write a poem responding to the prompt, and to submit it by the 15th of the month for possible publication on the blog. No pornography or objectionable language. Read rules carefully. NOTE THAT POEMS ON BLOGS ARE CONSIDERED PUBLISHED. Periodically, I may post commentary on poems, poetry books, or poetry. Welcome to my blog!
