TIMEY RHYMEY: POETRY DAY IRELAND 2020 ONLINE WRITING CHALLENGE
'Time is a storm in which we are all lost.’ - William Carlos Williams
‘…it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey stuff.’ – The Doctor
‘There Will Be Time’ is the theme for Poetry Day Ireland 2020 and to celebrate you're invited to become Time Lords for the day and explore the phenomenon of Time in all its glory in this FREE online writing challenge!
We are living in the eye of a global storm right now but, through poetry, we can write the words to change the weather, unravel the wibbly-wobbly bits or find our way home.
The rules of the challenge are simple:
- Read the Time-themed prompts and poems.
- Listen to the Time-themed tunes.
- Write for 15 minutes.
- Share your poem in the Facebook group.
- Read and respond to other posted work.
Most of all, be creative and enjoy yourself!
The Facebook group will open on the 29 April, with a welcome, introductions and time-related stuff to get you in the mood for writing.
The challenge proper kicks off on Thursday 30 April for Poetry Day Ireland 2020, with poet Angela T. Carr sharing new prompts and inspiration throughout the day.
Sign up now for FREE and join us for a day of Timey Rhymey fun!
This event is hosted in conjunction with Poetry Ireland as part of their Bright Ideas programme for Poetry Ireland Day 2020.
