NaPM 2017, Please Read This

[rayheinrich]

PWoF - PigPen Write of Fall, for all you peoples who haven't heard about it is the baby sibling of NaPM.
It starts each year on the Autumnal Equinox (for us Northern Hemispherians) which means this year it will start on:
Friday, September 22.
It's like NaPM only it's just 10 poems and you have 2 days to do each one.
See you there...

Breaking news: Lizzie's just volunteered to do 95% of any work involved.

You turd.  

100% organic (mostly) and totally compostable.

I'm fine with that as long as you're still the beautiful face of the event. People need a strong leader for these ordeals.

"Beautiful face"... Yes (or at least my cats tell me this right before feeding time).
"Strong leader"... When I'm walking towards the food prep area, yes again.

So, tell me: are we going to be allowed to use vowels in our poems this time?

Don't go all hysterical on me; there was only one time last year when you couldn't.  And this year, no worries,
all 10 poem perplexities will allow full use of vowels*.



* Though there is one where you can't use "n", "t", and "s". But since they're not vowels, you should be fine.

These prompts have made me sweat, Todd, and I'm not even done them all yet. Thanks for putting them up.

And so many times I'd read the poems submitted and go 'awww, hell, that's just too dam good'. Luckily I would only read them after my submission or I'd never have posted any.

Ha - I know exactly what you're saying, and felt the way you describe, 30 times.

Thank you so much for committing to this.
The prompts were a blessing.
It helped me to retrieve some old skills,
oh,
and it was fun, too!

That's something I figured out too: Don't read the others until after you've posted yours.
But then I read them, and it's fun (inspiring for the next one as well) to see such amazing variety.
And yes, 30!   It still doesn't seem like there were that many because my field of view was 24 hours.
