Week 18: My Poet’s Path BYOB Challenge
Blogging your own book of poetry.
Tip from the Poet’s Path: Tracking your growth, development, and community can serve as a compass for your writer’s journey.
I am perplexed at how quickly the second quarter ended as I’m about to enter the third quarter of my BYOB Challenge.

Dealing with these issues, my BYOB project, The Grape Picker’s Daughter: A Book of Poetry, is behind schedule. However, I have stayed on course with my long-range writing goals.
