Oh, you mean it should be listed under the category: napomo. I didn't list any of mine under the group because I didn't need the silver, but I still participated anyways. Please may I enter?

Ok Just long as we have confirmation you wrote a poem once a day last month

My shortest napomo's we
, and my longest were not based on friendship... hmmmm......

I wonder how many of mine would be considered "novels". I find it a funny tag, because I've written a few novels, and the average word count was 250,000 words. So anything just under that isn't a novel right?

Lol er yeah a bit long

What IS a napomo poem? It seems from the comments to be something to do with writing a poem every day. This I cannot undertake to do!

napomo - national poet month. Last month a lot of us wrote a poem a day for one month. If ppl did that then can enter your best napomo write.

Well, we do not have a national poet month in the UK... We have an official "National Poetry Day" - which some idiot decides to fix on the first Thursday of October i.e. right at the beginning of the University Year -- which essentially prevents academics and students from participating - and we have various individual "Days" (Shakespeare's Birthday, Burns Nicht, St Hilda's day - she is the patron saint of English poetry)... and just at the moment the BBC is in the middle of its own poetry festival... which began on 20th May - the 500th anniversary of the publication of Shakespeare's sonnets.
But - write a poem every day??? Sorry, not for me! A "full-time" writer needs ONE day off per week, no less than any other worker!!!
