Good day/night to you all! You may call me Molly, I have participated in every poetry marathon since 2016 and am thrilled to participate again though I truly fear failing this year due to low energy levels every day leading up to it. If I…

Hey! I am Ananya Panwar, a fellow challenger for the half poetry marathon 2021. Writing and reading are my hobbies, not necessarily in that order. Hope to have a lot of fun and exercise my creative muse. Lastly, I am pleased to make your acquaintance.

Hi! I live in Los Angeles, CA and am currently working on my first novel. While prose has always been my focus, I love the creativity and whimsy of poetry. I haven’t written any since college so I am excited to see what new passions…

It’s been seven years since I first introduced myself to this incredible group. And I’m still writing poetry, still putting it out there, still finding (sometimes!) homes for what crystallises from my inner chaos. I love my annual participation in the Half Marathon: I’ve made…

Hey y’all, I’m Allison. I’m a 37-year old writer based in Chicago, where it’s supposed to thunderstorm all weekend. Bad for people who want to enjoy vaccinated life at the beach, but great for me! This is my first marathon, and I’m hoping it’ll help…

Hi guys,   I’m Jade and this is my 4 or 5th marathon. I’m writing from Chicago. I’m excited and really hope everyone has a great time.

Hi poets! This is my second Poetry Marathon; last year was my first. I am a writer and editor, and I own my own small business doing both. I am so thankful to be able to work at something I love, on my own schedule….

I’m by no means a Shakespeare, Stephen King, or John Grisham. I doubt I have even a quarter of the talent JK Rowling has. It would take me an enormous amount of time, practice and effort to be considered for a Pulitzer Prize. But despite…

Hello, everyone! I am a writer, editor and social anthropologist who grew up in four countries. I currently live in Canada, where I’m pursuing a PhD at York University. I’m doing the half-marathon tomorrow. Good luck to one and all!
