Attention writers: During the month of April (National Poetry Month), NASH will host a 30-Day Poetry Challenge. If you sign up, you’ll get a prompt in your email inbox each day of April.  This project can benefit you in many ways: you develop a writing routine, build a sense of community, and gain confidence in your work.
