I think?  Anyway, I’ll be hosting it this month.  I know several of my readers do not participate in it, not being the poetically-inclined types–or, perhaps, not the poetically-writing-inclined types.  However, it is my first time hosting Word and Question.  Do consider joining us.  You don’t have to like poetry!  You just have to like me!  Well, like me enough to be willing to give it a shot.  It’d make me veeeeeeeery happy.

Head on over here to read more about it and how it works. Enbrethiliel, the mind behind this wonderful creation, has a nice writeup explaining Word & Question for everyone.

Basically, you send me a random word and a random question [that are appropriate; I'll trash anything inappropriate and substitute them for something ridiculous and make sure you get them] by 6 May. I will then jumble them all up and give you a word and a question to write a poem around. I’m notorious for being late, though, so I’ll probably accept prompts through about 8pm on the 7th (that’s Saturday).

Anyway, join in! It’s fun, and nobody will write anything mean about your poem. We’ll only write nice things. If someone writes something mean, I’ll write a poem making fun of them. See? I’m offering to defend your honor. You’ve nothing to lose. Join! We love new players. And you’d make me happy.

Please send all prompts to my email address–this domain name at gmail dot com.
*Also, if you just feel like emailing me, that’s acceptable, too. I like emails, though I sometimes usually take awhile to respond. Emails also make me happy, though. If you won’t participate in Word & Question, correspondence is an acceptable substitution.
