Wednesday Poetry Challenge
Not every Wednesday, but some Wednesdays, I will post a Poetry Challenge.
I was inspired by seeing a few of these in the WordPress blogosphere and was thinking that maybe there was room for one more — one a little less traditional, but still focused on developing writing skills for the poet.
The approach is simple: A writing exercise (or challenge) is presented. Anyone wishing to participate may do so at any time — doesn’t matter if it is the day the challenge is posted or months or years later — there is no deadline whatsoever. One can create a response to the “challenge” as a post or page on their blog — or anywhere they chose — just provide the link to the “Mr. Linky” pop-up window provided at the bottom of the Wednesday Poetry Challenge Post.
I think it’s just that simple.
One can participate in all challenges, participate in only those challenges of interest, or participate in not a single one but just browse others’ responses or ignore these Wednesday posts altogether.
I was originally thinking about starting another WordPress blog just for this purpose, but after noting how difficult it is for a brand new blog like WordPress Blog Showcase to get followers, I thought I would give it a try here where there is already some foot traffic, so to speak.
Look forward to this exercise, any responses and any and all feedback on improving process or content.
