Has the pandemic influenced NaPoWriMo?

less lonely // This entry, featured by Poems India on Day 2 of National Poetry Writing Month (NaPoWriMo), drew its co-founder Shivam Tomar’s attention, for how feelings of isolation were interwoven in its lines. Loneliness, he has discovered, is a recurring theme in this year’s NaPoWriMo. April, being National Poetry Month, sees poetry communities and platforms hosting the NaPoWriMo challenge of writing a poem a day. To get beginners started on this, hosting platforms put out prompts for each day. It’s a tradition that began in 2003 in the US, as a blog post, but is just as relevant this year, especially given the pandemic, believes Rohini Kejriwal, founder of Alipore Post. “Poetry helps people open up and find their voice,” says Rohini.
