Join The Phoenix Poetry Chapbook Challenge!
2022
January 11th-January 20th 2022
Local Gems is very excited for our first challenge of 2022!!
Let's be honest...2021 was a challenging year, in a lot of ways for a lot of us...
(for some even moreso than 2020...)
But you know the old saying, "when the going gets tough, the tough get going..."
And poets are tough!
So we want to invite you to join us in starting 2022 with a chance to rise from the ashes like a Phoenix and complete a challenge, with a chance to show the world the results!
Can you write 15 poems in 10 days? A chapbook?
We challenge you!
This challenge was exceedingly popular last year, and so much great writing came from it.
We expect no less this year!!
