I take it this isn't any specific kind of poetry? Just write a poem?

Everyone is talented enough to write. It may not be any good, but that's how you get better. Give it a shot.

Going to spend my time before I sleep reading fall themed poetry for inspiration so I can send in an entry. Haven't written poetry in years - this will be interesting!

@Fanged @Napiform It's your contest so I'm not telling you how to run it but usually it's just limited to one entry per person. And why would he be allowed to submit prose in a poetry contest? lol

Whaaatttt no multiple entries. How many do you have, @Fanged


And I agree with the prose thing, I thought your theme was specifically poetry this go-round?

My natural word-smithing IS poetry!

 

I'll hold off on the creative juice and save them for the next contest

3. Well 3 last night, I just now got on to check. I can make it not multiple entries. I'm rather curious though, maybe max 2 entries?

I feel like it took forever to just get 3.

Asdf, I didn't fully read that. My bad. Yeah it's specifically poetry this time around.
