Out of the 30 days of April, I only missed one; the 16th.
That's 29 poems in 30 days.
(Well, I see it more as being 28&1/2 due to the fact that I only got halfway thru my idea for the 30th poem, but that's just me being picky really.)
Sure, a lot of them need quite a bit of editing and rewriting if I'm gonna use them going forward, but looking at it in that way, I now have a bank of drafts and ideas that I can work on and hopefully make into some pretty decent poems. I'm really looking forward to seeing where some of these go.
(I've done some of them as they are in performances and they seem to have gone down pretty well already, so fingers crossed...)
I'm actually really proud of myself for having done it. Whenever I decide I'm gonna do one of these challenges, I never seem to make it more than a third of the way thru. The fact that I actually stuck with this to the end is pretty awesome for me.
If you fancy having a read of them, they are at my tumblr blog here: http://paulaskew.tumblr.com/
Some of them are humourous, some aren't supposed to be. Some are pretty bad, but others are alright actually. And there are only 2 or 3 that I really hate.
Go on, shoo. There's a good reader.
