This was my first NaPoWriMo since 2015, and also only my second fully complete one since that year! After years of lying fallow in terms of writing poetry, it's been nice to get back into the swing of things, write consistently in a season of my life where I feel like I have more brain space, and pick up the threads of writing projects long abandoned. Here is a list of the poems I wrote for this year's challenge. A big thanks to the fellow poets at :devNaPoWriMo: and especially for :devMedoriko: for organizing everything as she always does.
It's been a long, long time, but a lot has happened for me. I finished seminary, for one. It was wonderful, but all the reading and writing severely depleted my poetic inspiration, along with other challenges and losses. It doesn't help that DA's changes to literature submissions has added an extra barrier of entry for me. But the winds have shifted and I'm resuming work on a couple projects that will hopefully draw more verse from me. I also hope to be writing more prose on my blog too.
Hope to see you around! Drop a line and say hi if you're still around!
