Links to the 2008 and 2007 Poetry Projects

by John Hewitt on 9/9/2009

It has been pointed out to me that this year’s 30 Poems in 30 Days project has not been as heavy on instruction as the last two years.  I don’t disagree. Each year the project takes on it’s own personality.  This year I have tried to be more encouraging than instructional. One reason for this is that I don’t have thirty brand new things to teach people about how to write poetry.  Also, I spent so much time last year trying to put articles together, I didn’t have time to write all thirty poems. This project is as much for me as it is for my readers, and I want to complete my thirty poems. This is also why I am posting my poems along with my articles. That way, for the post to be complete, I must produce a poem.

I understand that people may prefer the previous year’s articles, so I am including them in this post. Have fun!

Thanks for posting this. As I dropped out early last year, I may at some stage come back and try the ones I missed. (If not here, at least for myself.)
