Greetings, Team Napo Poets! Welcome to Day 29! T-Minus TWO DAYS!!!! Can you see the runway lights?! Everyone please put your seats in the upright position and fasten your seatbelts! The wheels will be hitting the tarmac tonight, and we'll begin unboarding in the order we boarded, with the African Section being first, followed by England and then America!

In the interim, enjoy our next Featured Team NaPo Poet/s in the Hollywood Squares, Deep Underground Poetry Edition, Anarchitect, Mary Walker, Magnetron, and Psycotic Mastermind!

WELCOME HOME, TEAM NAPO!! The African delegation has just finished unboarding and we're assisting the English and American delegates now.

Just a friendly reminder that while we have allowed leeway throughout the comp due to personal issues and acts of God, i.e. - lack of internet, etc. Number 30 must be submitted by midnight your time TONIGHT in order to qualify for the  Specially Designed Trophy! 🏆

While we're waiting for all the delegates to unboard, let's sit back and enjoy our final Team Napo Feature, who is none other than our NaPo Host with the Most, "Public Enemy Number One", Johnny Blaze!

I think we should ALL give it up for a man who's written 150 poems this month! I'm both honored and in complete awe of his poetic ability! Hostessing with him has been an amazingly inspiring experience!

Thank you, Partner-in-Fun and Friend!
Yes; We did! ❤

To co-hosts Ahavati & JohnnyBlaze, and to everyone who made it all the way through:

It's a real feeingl I've been getting as people keep coming in with their 30th entry, some limping, some pacing, some down to a power walk, as if at the end of a marathon.  But what we all have in common is how much the urge to do this to challenge ourselves.  Not a competition against one another, but to get in the mindset to do a full-sized write each day no matter what many of us have been up against outside the event.  I'm still bursting with pride for what we've all done!

And also, this has been the best NaPoWriMo I've ever done, and have thoroughly enjoyed writing my entries each and everyday this month.  For those who know me and have followed along, they know I mean it.  So if I make it to DUP's NaPoWriMo 2018, guaranteed I'll be there!

... our stories varied and our paths unique but we were and are given a platform because moonlight does find it's way underground

I've barely caught my breath, especially on the first day of the month and a MONDAY; however, wanted to express my appreciation for such kind words.

Your participation was an honor and we hope to see you all next year.

Speaking of, TO ALL PARTICIPANTS!

Your assessment of this year's challenge is most welcome and may be quoted in future advertisements as a means of recruiting more participants in the 2018 DUP NaPoWriMo

And I'm sure it can be arranged that "links back to your profile" can be made to accompany said "assessments" should they be broadcasted here or on the Facebook nudge nudge winkie winkie.
