Official DU NaPoWriMo 2021 Discussion

Still another day closer;
Don't wait and be a loser.
The hotter the battle
The keener the throttle.

Grab your seat right now:
It's a sweet ride, anyhow!

REMEMBER:  APRIL ONE;
DO NOT BE LEFT UNDONE.

Don't be cruel / to a heart that's true

~ Elvish Presely

There ain't gonna be any singing in the rain this year, nor tap dancing with the likes of Gene Kelly.

What you will hear instead are the drums of war and the sound of 10,000 spear handles being pounded against the ground. An army of Gobnobins , Porks and Interhet Trolls are waiting outside your fortress walls. Will you hide within some barricaded cave deep within the mountainside?

Or will you stand with your Fellowship and WRITE!

LOL! Looks like it's GanJosh's lucky day!

Now, our rules differ from the typically NaPoWriMo.

Typical states that you wake up and spend the day crafting a single poem into a finished product that you record as your entry.

Ours states that the writing doesn't have to end. Beginning April 1st, you could write 10 poems, post 1, and have your next 9 days covered. April 2nd, you could write 10 more. And 10 more on April 3rd. 3 posted + 27 waiting to be  posted = 30.

In a few days, you could be finished, and ride out the rest of the challenge stress free.

Or, you could continue writing if you felt so moved to.

From my own personal experience during NaPo 2017, you can write as many as 150 poems during the month of April. I did so with 5 accounts and earned 5 seperate tropheees.

While the goal is to write 30 substantial poems, the challenge will open you up to the prospect of writing so much more than you have ever imagined.

Wooooo Hoooooo!!!

welcome to the fellowship!

Thank you Daisy! To Mordor and beyond..

And 30 it still is! Welcome back, Brokenpoet2020.

Don't worry, don't be apoplectic
get NaPo-flexic.
Move those dialectic poetic muscles for 30 days
wordify your orectic desires
juxtapose synectic verbology --
each line can be catalectic
only 50 unique words (it's a walk-over)
and it'll be fine
you'll finish with an acatalectic flourish.

5 days to sign up for NaPo 2021 (you know it makes sense)

I, Ganjosh, have spoken.
