Intro
Hello, all. My name is Megan, I’m a 47yo teacher in Austin, Texas USA, and this will be my second half-marathon.
Hi!
Hi. I am Prachi from India and this is the first time I am participating in this marathon. I am so excited! I began my writing journey with poetry during a trying time of my life and I have been writing ever since. I have always been inclined to the traditional rhyme scheme and it is only recently that I have come across the modern ways of writing poetry and I can’t wait to try it myself! I have realized in the past few months that although I love this art form, I don’t have much knowledge regarding it and this marathon will give me an excellent opportunity to read all the different styles.
Cheers! 🙂
Hello there!
I’m Nadine from Malaysia and this is my first poetry marathon. I’ll be going for the 24-hours with my best friend who’s in Pakistan and hopefully we’ll be keeping each other awake. I started writing poems when I my mother bought me a narrow rectangular-shaped notebook at around nine-years-old, and since then I have written very occasionally (less than twice a year), so this marathon will certainly help me beef-up my collection. I can’t say anything for sure, but expect some poems about love, politics and prayer! I will be starting at 9pm here and the last time I pulled an all-nighter was when I was finishing up writing my thesis a year ago, so this should be interesting!
Wishing all the best to all the participants this year and I’ll see you tomorrow!

Hello 2020!
Hello everyone,
This will be my third time participating in The Poetry Marathon! I am so very much looking forward to writing in community, especially during this upside down, social distancing, anxiety-ridden, inspiring, and challenging time.
Many thanks Caitlin and Jacob!
Happy writing to all!
