I did this a few years back and got some good poems out of it and I liked the routine of writing something every day and thinking about it for a long time first. Last time I just grasped around for inspiration but this year I saw that the helpful poet Jo Bell is going to provide a poetry prompt every day. This is going to help me to get started (my mind is a blank lately). Here is her first one and I will post the poem (first draft, rough thing) later today.

So, my NaPoWriMo prompt number 1 is - write to yourself as a sixteen year old. What warnings, what advice do you give? If you have time - write back.
[NB I know that some of these prompts will sound worthy or 'workshoppy'. But give them a shot, especially if they aren't the sort of thing you would normally do?]
