Poets! Our 8th annual Poetry SuperPAC begins in a few days. Sign up now for 30 writing prompts in 30 days--a great way to find some community and celebrate National Poetry Month. #nationalpoetrymonth leftmarginlit.org/poetry-superpa…

And here's a sample prompt from 2019: Write a narrative poem in 13 lines. It should contain story elements such as protagonist, conflict, and resolution. This is not a portrait—it’s a story. One more rule: You must use the third person point of view. Try it today and have fun!
