Summary

A new 30-day poetry challenge has been announced, encouraging poets and fiction writers to engage in daily self-reflective writing prompts.

Abstract

The website content introduces a new poetry challenge aimed at motivating writers to explore their creativity through daily prompts. The challenge, inspired by previous successful initiatives and the contributions of writers like A Rustic Mind (Manali Desai), invites participants to write poems based on self-reflection. It is designed to be quick, taking only five minutes each day, and accommodates both short and long poetic forms. The challenge is open to everyone, with an invitation extended to specific Medium contributors, and participants are encouraged to tag the organizer and fellow poets in their work.

Challenges are hard. However, they are required to motivate us. Therefore, it’s an announcement for an upcoming poetry challenge.

Before some time, I have initiated a challenge to write poetry for 30 days. It was a great challenge that I have even been a part of. I had a lot of fun doing that challenge.

I am grateful to all the writers who participated and showed their creativity. So, I thought why not do another writing challenge.

Yesterday, A Rustic Mind (Manali Desai) reminded me of a writing challenge by giving me such a beautiful contribution to her poem.

This morning, I thought let’s toast for another poetry challenge.

I know everyone has their day jobs and they still write on Medium. So, my challenge will not take you more time.

Every morning I will publish a prompt and you will have to write a poem. The prompts will be based on self-reflection. It will just take you five minutes and will give you a chance to take a deep dive into your creativity. You can write a one-lines poems or longer. It depends on you.

I am inspired to do this challenge because of Melanie J.

She wrote a one-line poem on happiness. I thought there are so many other important things to write on. Why just happiness, sadness is also a part of our life. So, why not write about it.

I hope you all like the idea. I would like to invite Melanie J. A Rustic Mind (Manali Desai) Bhavna Narula Dr. Fatima Imam Dr. Preeti Singh Josh Balerite Acol Prasant Trivedi Orla Kenny Carolyn Hastings

It would be great if you tag your other fellow poets.

I hope you will want to participate in this challenge.

This challenge is open for everyone, just don’t forget to tag me in your piece.

Looking forward to reading your creations.
