--Announcing the--
---Steemit School Poetry---
--100 Day Challenge!--
Introduction
Hi everyone! I'm ecstatic to announce that I'll be launching a 100 day long poetry challenge for all skill levels from total beginner to advanced. It involves writing one short piece of poetry every day for 100 days with a maximum of 7 skip days. This will run 14 weeks and 2 days from March 7, 2018 to June 14, 2018. (Update: registration is now closed! You can still participate by posting along with us, and joining our daily classes in the Steemit School Discord. Thanks for understanding!)
Please also check my blog for the daily updates that list the changes to the operation of this challenge. There are now three categories for Beginner, Intermediate, & Advanced for 3 SBD each daily. The remaining 1 SBD is going towards a weekly prize of 5 SBD in each category among the daily winners.
Why I am doing this challenge
My motivations for hosting and coordinating this challenge are manifold. First, I come from a perspective of having taken this challenge myself. In fact, I am going on 200 days of daily posting with a handful of missed days. It has done wonders for my creativity, consistency, and confidence in my craft. It has also empowered me to connect more deeply with others and myself through the art of poetry. I want to facillitate and encourage others to take this journey of self-discipline in self-expression. Secondly, I want to expand the budding poetry community on Steemit on a grassroots level. Sometimes poets (and artists in general) can get to feeling rather isolated. So we will come together on a daily basis to discuss, share, and learn from each other. Thirdly, I want to give back to a community that has shown me amazing support since day 1. With that being said, let's look at the structure of the challenge.
Poetry challenge (100 days)
- Write one poem every day using the tag "steemitschoolpoetry" as one of your five tags.
- You may write in your mother tongue (if other than English.) (Optional!)[Note: this is first and foremost an English poetry contest due to limitations of not having judges arranged for other languages!]
- Translate to English version (please do not just copy + paste in Google Translate.)
- Minimum length = 14 lines (3 quatrains + 1 couplet)
- Find or create at minimum 2 images that fit the poem & include your sources.
- Make it look nice to the best of your ability using your markdown skills.
- Include a current link to the Steemit school discord at the bottom of your post.
- You have 10 break days (only.) Use them wisely!! That one per ten days.
- You may only skip two days in a row. Three days skip in a row results in disqualification for prizes.
- Days will begin at 6 PM GMT (1 PM EST, 12 PM CT, 5 PM CET)
- Each day 3 winners will be chosen in each category (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced) to receive 3 SBD.
- Weekly, one of the daily winners for the week in each category will be awarded 5 SBD each.
Challenge operation, cont'd
- There will be a few large prizes based on exemplary achievement for students that complete the entire 100 day period. (TBD)
- Challenge will run from March 7, 2018 to June 14, 2018. (Days start & end at 6 PM GMT.)
- Daily winner will be invited to read their poem in our Steemit School discord and speak about its meaning, the inspiration behind it, the construction, etc.
- There may be additional challenges added along the way as surprises.
- We may look into different forms (sonnets, limericks, etc.) according to participant interest.
- Please comment on at least 3 other participants' entries daily to give them feedback.
- There will be tutorials along the way regarding markdown, creating and editing images, and different aspects of poetic expression.
- Intended for both experienced poets and those who want to learn to write poetry.
- Donations are highly appreciated for the 9 SBD daily prizes / 15 SBD weekly prizes and I will list your name in daily updates as a donor to the cause.
- Let's create strong habits together for daily creativity & expression through the art of poetry!!!
Registration
- There are two days to signal your intent to join this challenge.
- Please comment on this post and resteem it to signal your intention to participate.
- Basic comment format "I will join the 100 day poetry challenge. I (have been writing poetry for X years, months, days...)/(I have never written poetry before.) For me, poetry is... (...) "
- Join the Steemit School Discord Channel and take part in one of the fastest growing Steemit communities for education with 24/7 support.
- Introduce yourself in the Discord, saying you were invited by @d-pend and tell us a bit about yourself.
- Tell as many people as you think are interested in this challenge over the next two days.
- Again, both experienced and first-time poets are greatly needed to build momentum and community in this challenge!
- Experienced poets especially will be invited to lead workshops in their poetic style.
- I am honored to be your companion and friend on this journey through cultivating the daily habit for writing & sharing poetry!
Criteria for selecting winners
The criteria for selecting the daily 10 SBD winners will be extremely varied, such that I find it difficult, and even undesirable to give a rigid set of guidelines for the choice. For instance, some gravitate towards whimsical poetry, others are skilled with wordplay, or abstract imagery, or powerful emotion, etc. It is my intention to spotlight as many styles as possible. That is why there are no requirements for form as long as the poem is at least 14 lines in length. I will also take into account experience and skill level, so new poets will have the chance to be rewarded and featured just as established poets will. You may only win once in each 25 day period, for a total of 4 times possible. However to be eligible for the large prizes at the end, you must create at least 93 poems in the 100 day period (because there may be up to 7 days off.)
Daily updates
I will post daily updates announcing the previous day's selection, what we are studying and discussing in the Steemit School Discord, and listing all of the participants in the challenge. I will also list the donors to the prize fund of the challenge.
Donations
If you would like to contribute to the 2000 SBD total prize fund for this challenge, it is very much appreciated. Simply transfer any amount of STEEM or SBD to @d-pend with the memo "Donation for 100 day poetry challenge" and you will be listed in the daily update posts that I publish.
Conclusion
This is only the beginning! As always I take your feedback and insight into consideration and will mould this challenge according to how things unfold. If you have any questions please leave them in the comments below. (If you want to ask me something privately use @d-pend on Steemit.chat or @d-pend#5693 on Discord.) Please share this post to anyone you feel may be interested in participating. It is my firm belief that anyone can learn to write excellent poetry and enjoy the process, so please do not exclude yourself because of self doubt. If you have the interest, give it a try! It might just change your life. And lastly, please consider joining the Steemit School Discord and becoming part of one of the fastest growing Steemit communities centered on self-cultivation, education, and self-empowerment. We have around 1000 members in only 7 days. Much gratitude to everyone who is helping to make this challenge a reality and to everyone who has supported me on my Steemit journey in the past 8 months. You all are amazing and I'm continually in awe of the great people I meet on a daily basis!
Wholeness,
@d-pend
3/5/18
Update: some rules will be shifting slightly. We will now have categories for beginner, intermediate and advanced, with daily 3 SBD prize for each. (3+3+3) Remaining 1 SBD out of 10 daily will be distributed as weekly spotlight post (7 SBD reward.) I will also resteem the Weekly Pick and give 100% upvote (~15 SBD.)
Also, I am looking for assistance! This is a huge task and already we have about 80 entrants. There are 12 hours left to enter. Look out for the update post which I will post later tonight. Another big thing is please put Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, etc. somewhere in your title so it is easier to find and document your posts.
We need more whale and dolphin assistance, especially. I am only one dolphin and my upvote and influence only goes so far. Please appeal to other large users on the platform to see if they will get involved in this project.
A very nice contest! I will learn from it too! Thanks for the great contribution to Steemit School. That’s a very big task! Bravo!

What an interesting Idea!
I wonder how many people will go till the end...-)
Daniel, the authors can choose any style of poetry, no boundaries, no requirments for rhyme presence in every poem?
The only rule is 14 lines - is it right?
I would like to take part in this challenge but amn't sure about the amount of my creativity-))
you have seen my poetry talant already-))
but who knows after such 100-day practive it can develop to something better maybe!-)

I'm wondering how many will stick with it too, Talia!
Yes, at least 14 lines of any style whatsoever!
I would be honored to have you participate & quite confident that you can look back fondly on your progress after this course :-)
Either way you decide, please consider joining our Steemit School Discord channel! I know you are passionate about education, homeschooling, etc. and we would love to hear you speak about your Steemit journey and areas of interest in life if you so choose.

You know I am with you all the way @d-pend. I love the way you included everybody equally. This motivation with real incentive. I have never seen a challenge go more than 7 days. I have been following you closely now for 3 months. I just liked reading your poems but they rubbed off on my. I think my first poem was written about that time. I like to write about what is happening to me or take some poetic challenge to express what is going on in words. I will post one poem a day and put in that tag #steemitschoolpoetry and paste a link to the discord. https://discord.gg/rx9Fgp

Hello all,
I am @nicholas83. I will join the 100 day poetry challenge. I have been writing poetry on and off for about several years. Nothing serious though because my first love is prose, but I use poetry when I have writer’s block. These days, for reasons I cannot tell I have been writing a lot of poems. For me, poetry is a different way of telling stories, and it is always wonderful working in a different genre. I am just here to learn and grow and see how much I can assist even one person to develop their craft.

I will join the 100 day poetry challenge. I have been writing poetry for about 10years. For me, poetry is a hobby, and it is also the best way to express myself, my inner thoughts and sentiment towards a course or towards a subject. There is no other better accurate way of saying and showing others our mind and the deep truths we cherish other than via poetry. It ll be intriguing and inspiring to read the creative, deep, or entertaining writings of of every participants.
Awesome initiative @d-pend.

I totally intend on joining this awesome challenge. I've been writing poetry on and off since I was a kid. I wrote my first song at 7, but I didn't really get into it until I was about 14. So around 8 years. I'm used to free verse style poetry, never been real big on directions and structures but I love the challenge. Hopefully I'll be able to stay in the loop enough to know if any themes change. For me, poetry has always been the only way I can release my darkness in a healthy manner. It's one of the few things in my life that gets my mind moving when it's stuck in cement (:

I will join the 100 day Poetry Challenge. I've been writing poetry since I was little, as far as I can remember. It doesn't mean I'm a veteran poet though. I have never attended any classes and the farthest I've gone with regards to publication is two national newspapers. I love poetry and see it as a means of self-expression. Painters have their brushes to paint with and I have my words to paint with. I hope to learn a lot as I embark on this journey. Thanks for the opportunity!

Cheers @d-pend, this is a wonderful step towards the growth of the creative writing community and I must say that your initiative is truly inspiring - thank you for this.
I can't imagine I'll be writing a poem a day, I've long left a lot of my stream of consciousness or daily writing behind me for a more focused approach that better suits my writing styles, but I'd love to participate from time to time, leave comments on as many poems as I can, and be the best supporter of this initiative as I can be.
I have been writing poetry for a decade, and a voracious reader and consumer of poetry for a few years longer. For me, poetry is. This is my favorite aspect of the artform and always keeps me coming back.

Thanks for the comment! I definitely agree that this approach of constant smaller output is sometimes more fitting to newer writers. You have some great writing on your blog so it seems you've found the approach that fits!
We'd be honored to have you speak sometime, if you're interested, to share about your writing process. It might prove quite educational!

Definitely keep me posted, mate, as I said happy to help in any way I can.
Love what you are doing to support and grow the community and I aspire to learn a lot from this initiative on how I can make those dreams a reality when I have more experience on the Steem platform.

Poetry has been with me since before I could write! I would sing it at age 3...sometimes to the shock of the adults around me. I used to have it pouring through me 24/7 and poetry helped through some very difficult times in life. Like the music of the soul always in the background feeding wisdom or beauty. For the last 10 years, I've lost my muse and miss it greatly - nothing compares to living life as one interlinking poem. The prospects of forcing myself to write - even when the well seem dry (did I use all my words up? ) is both unsettling and exciting. But I will certainly enjoy reading others' poems none the less...and maybe I will be inspired. Thanks for organizing this - I really enjoyed reading your intentions behind this - very nice!

@d-pend bro of course I will participate in your challenge. I can't wait...
I've been reading a bit of poetry and how to write it down last couple of days. I must say it is hard for me because I am brand new in this and I have NEVER written before poetry, but never haha..I love art and creating, but I was more about music and drawing..
This may sound funny but this is probably my biggest challenge ever, and I have challenged my self few times when no one believed in me.. But really, I must read a lot about it and I can't wait for your class to start.
Maybe it won't do me wonders but I know this challenge will bring me dicipline by writing every day for 100days, it will set free this poetic side of creativity that I hope I somehow have :) and hopefully it will connect me with other creative people...
Much love for spreading love and creativity, Luka.

@d-pend I will like to join the 100 days poetry challenge, it would really be a great opportunity because to me poetry is a skill that one must hon, nature and missing out on writing will only blunten ones skills that's why this challenge is magnificent.
Infact, the effects of this challenge will go a very long way in making an individual find their place, discover what kind of poet they are, it will help them plunge deep, make them become readers and learners and more refined.
Thats why I think this opportunity is heavenly, as for me, I will participate, hope to learn more, and hope I can get to enlighten others too
This I've shared to my followers and will be making a dtube video to promote it as well.

I am so happy, you just cannot imagine how much.. I think very much that poets are sort of sidelined on steemit..i post mostly poems and both fictional and non fictional writings but if not for the support of some communities like stach and steemgigs i will get little or nothing for my posts.
So you can imagine my excitement seeing this.
I am definitely very interested in participating in the 100 days challenge.. I might not be able to keep up much as i am currently in law school and its very intense but i will verily try to post everyday and i love poetry communities so i will definitely participate as much as i can.
I have been writing professionally for about nine months now and would release my first anthology sometime this week...
This is so beautiful..kudos for a beautiful idea

Hey @tolarnee I appreciate your reply and definitely agree about poetry being underappreciated. I noticed it since day one and a lot of it has to do with a general lack of value placed on poetry in our culture. The best way to shift anything about culture is to start a movement, even a small one.
I'm happy you would consider joining despite your intense schedule and honored to have your participation :-)

Ok, I would like to join although I'm not sure I'll keep it up. This is a hell of a challenge! I have written poetry since I was young, but always just as freewrites, have only recently gotten into the habit of really working a poem before calling it a poem ;-). I'm looking forward to this. Let the challenge begin!
Also, I'm not so into images. So do we really need to put up THREE images per post? What if we only put up one?

Hey @nobyeni thanks for the comment. I do agree that it's quite a challenge, lol. Honored to have you participating!
About the images, on further thought, I will decrease to two, minimum. The reason for the requirement is that although as a poetry purist, I do not feel poetry needs any images, this challenge is directed towards the medium of Steemit specifically, in which I feel images are quite necessary.
One will be the thumbnail, and one ought to be at the very bottom, to leave a lingering trace of the feeling or essence of your poem.
I think that should be a good middle ground between three and only one.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Yes, I like that actually. It also makes it possible to have a daily-cover-thumbnail thing and a picture specifically for the poem. I've been thinking of picking up photography more, making a daily walk and in that way connect more with my surrounding (I recently moved, and it's very safe to just stay inside all day). So this challenge will also help with that.
I think 2 pictures is an excellent thing!

Hey @d-pend, thanks for sponsoring this 100 day poetry challenge. I would love to participate but alas I’m one of those introverted writers who runs from the crowd. The idea of talking on discord, if I was honored to be one of the daily winners, would have me running to the sofa where I would curl up in the fetal position. Also, since I make my own art, three images per post would be too daunting. Never-the-less I will try to follow along and support poems I like with upvotes.

Hi everyone, I'm @corderosiete on Discord too. I'm a teacher by profession from Venezuela. I'm a fond of writing and reading and I know that writing is one of the most difficult skills, for that I'd like to participate in this project to learn from this experience and from others. I'm a novice in writing poetry, actually I have recently started writing some poetry on Steemit. For me, poetry is the expression of feeling with sublime words.

Hey @d4rkflow it was good to speak with you in the Steemit school live and like I said I'm honored you gave my podcast a listen. Great to have you on board. Main tips at the beginning would be just do your best to give your true thoughts and feelings and don't judge too harshly. Just express, it doesn't matter good or bad, it's the practice that is important.

I am up for this, so yes I will join this 100 day challenge. I have been writing poetry for almost 30 years, but mostly just writing with no clue at to any rules or systems. Since being here at Steemit (since August 2016) I have written many poems and and come to a better understanding of how to structure one, and how to capture my thoughts more coherently.
For me poetry is definitely a form of therapy, as is a lot of writing. So many of mine start out as stream of consciousness writings. Currently learning to write in a more structured manner, so that will be good to learn also.
Anyway, excellent concept and opportunity, and many thanks for doing this.

Nice! I'm pleased to meet another veteran Steemian (or so I call anyone who's been around since 2016!) and honored to have your interest to join. I definitely feel writing to be quite therapeutic and helpful in processing the experiences of life.
Basically all my writing begins as stream of consciousness, as well, that is honed. Can't wait to hear your great input on your personal writing process, @naquoya. Please join our Discord and introduce yourself!

I will join the 100 day poetry challenge. I have been writing poetry for a year and few months. For me, poetry is an art that brings out the inner beauty, feelings, pain and as well imaginations in stitched lines of words.

Wow! this contest is gonna help me to polish my writing skills. I do appreciate the sincere efforts the humble guy Daniel aka @d-pend is taking to promote poetry. I do also appreciate this 100 days poetry challenge because it will give me a chance to read different thoughts <3
Suggestion
I know i am not worthy to say but i have a suggestion for the winning prize. It must be divided into tree posts per day so that maximum poets may get benefit from it.

I have decided to try!
I am NOT a poetry writer at all!
I have written 1-2 poems during my life till this time, and it's a real challenge to me, but it's so interesting to try and to be a part of this amazing project, even if I can't go till the end-)
it seems to me there will be more than 200 members in the beginning (but only a few will be able to go till the end-)
I have joined the channel-)

sorry(

I have explained it, hope you are not offended and you're not angry

As a rule I don't change my decisions, but this time it's really for better.
I can't compete with experienced poets with such high speed of the contest.
Hope for your understanding!
I am ready to be a part of SteemitSchool (if it's possible, and if I can be useful somehow), but I am better in poetry like a reader-)

I will join the 100 day poetry challenge. I have been writing poetry for almost 10years. As a Ph. D student of English, i find poetry as a veritable way to compress my thoughts in succint and pithy ways. For me, poetry helps to express my mind in such a way that i get immersed in it. I have written a lot of poem on different fundamental issues of life and i hope i can make that to bear on this challenge. Thank you @d-pend for this great poetic challenge. I believe it will still hone my skills the more.

@moneyinfant has added your contest to the list Steemit Writing Contests: Issue #39. The list is updated on a daily basis and your contest will remain on the list until its expiration - there's nothing you need to do.
The list was created to save writers the excessive amount of time spent searching through the #contest tag for writing contests. Now they can just come to the list each day, see new contests and use their time doing what they love - writing.
If you'd like to help spread the word about the Steemit Writing Contest List I'd really appreciate a resteem, but it certainly isn't necessary. The project is simply meant to help writers save time and contest creators attract more contestants.
P.S. If you know of any contests I've missed I'd love to hear about them. Thanks!

This is a hugeee commitment, I would like to join in, but I am having cold feet. I'm new to poetry, I think it's a great way to lease my soul in so few words, that's what poetry means to me...an expression of my inner self, my thoughts, and my feelings.
I haven't written up to twenty poems in all my life, so this would be an amazing push - that's why I am so fidgety.

Hey @debbietiyan, if you're on the fence, I'd recommend you to try! When I took this challenge myself, I produced more content in 7 months than in the previous 7 years. Even if you don't make it all the way, you will have a newfound appreciation for your poetic process, I promise.

I will join the 100 day poetry challenge. I have been writing poetry on and off for years. Poetry is a form of art that transcends just a form of writing. It communicates emotions and feelings and sometimes unspoken words. It many forms can be used to relay the truth and situation of a story a piece is talking about.
Great initiative

I will join the 100 day poetry challenge. I have been writing poetry since I was very young. You can find some about Network Theorems/Time Travel/Psychopath friends in my channel and I need this motivation to build my creative bones. For me poetry is a function of creative parts of the brain that distills metaphors out of chaotic randomness and you now what they say about metaphors: They say it is: a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.

@leeart suggested I join in. I just have to figure out the whole discord thing. One questions ... does the form have to be three quatrains and one couplet or can we vary form as long as it is 14 lines long.
To my history of writing poetry. I have been writing for about half a dozen years on-line. I started off at WritersCafe and then moved onto All Poetry. Then I began posting to youtube. I love haiku and metaphor in general. I haven't been writing as much poetry of late, concentrating more on prose and so I am interested to see what comes from 100 days straight of poetry. Wish me luck and I wish everyone else so:)

I will join the 100 day poetry challenge. I have been writing poetry for two months. For me, poetry is, a way to express things from soul to soul. Although you need intellect to understand it, the images you get are more complex that your intelect would normally be able to comprehend by non-poetic means. So poetry, using very prosaic words, is like the synergy of words.

Thanks for the suggestion @sirsticks.

I do want to find ways to support and feature people that are not the daily winner. Keep in mind people can only be chosen once in a 25 day period so many will have the chance to be selected!

I will join the 100 day poetry challenge. I have been writing poetry in my head since junior secondary school for years, only started posting in January 2018. For me, poetry gives a way to express life - the invisible and helps give life to the inanimate. Not sure if this makes sense but it’s how I see it.
