Having read the NaPo 2025 Rules & Guidelines, I'm in!
My location is Sheffield, UK in Time Zone Greenwich Mean Time.
So sorry to hear about Eerie. I am glad that this years Napo is a tribute to her.
One of the few members who made this place special for me.

Wafflenose said:And from the other side of the Atlantic...
I'm super excited for this year's challenge, but also a bit nervous. I'm a wife and a mum to two teenage girls; I work with special needs children and also teach woodwind; I have a gazillion interests
but always feel that each poem might be my last - a bit of imposter syndrome I think. I enjoy encouraging others along throughout the month of April, while scrabbling to post something acceptable just before midnight!! Speaking of Scrabble - my birthday falls on National Scrabble Day, mid-way through April, so hopefully I'll be able to write something about that. Last year, I challenged myself to write puzzle poems and odd works using funny alphabets and codes. There might be more of the same this year... we'll see!
Hey, Waffle!
Welcome to NaPo25!
Nothing feels as good as seeing past soldiers, like you, taking on the terrain with someone such as I, who have a homing device for the familiar, deep in my heart.
I look forward to reading your puzzle poems; there was once when my life was full of logic problems, Dell Crosswords, WordsWithFriends, Scrabble, and all kinds of enigmas. Another thing we have in common is music: I am a career music educator and songwriter/composer, among other things.
See you "on the trail!" [Ferdinand Grofe's Grand Canyon Suite has a movement by that title!].

So good to see you back in these NaPo halls, nomoth. ❤ I'll get your name added into the appropriate year asap.
EDIT: Unless I have miscounted, I have this as your second year ( 2020 ). I believe you started in 2021 but didn't complete it? Let me know if I've erred.

Thank you for your extended condolences, InDreamz. They are much appreciated.
Excited to have you with us this year! INDIA is stepping up with THREE entrants so far! You guys are in second place after the U.S. for number of entrants! Scottland and England are tied for third!
We're waiting on one more team member who's having some difficulty, then I'll start keeping us updated on the entrants and their nationalities.
Thanks again for joining! Gonna be great! xo
Thank you ,dear Tams ❤️
It's so good to know that India is on second place as far as the number of participants is concerned.
I hope I'm able to complete the NaPo challenge 😊
