The goal of the Poetry Marathon is to finish one poem, every hour, for twenty-four straight hours. Every hour, within the hour, you must publish this poem on a private or public blog. How you go about completing this task is up to you. You can stock your kitchen, create a gathering of poet marathoner friends, lock yourself in your apartment, nap every hour for forty-five minutes, not sleep at all, whatever suits you best. But at the end you will feel satisfied. Satisfied because you wrote a chapbook worth of poems in one day. Satisfied because you finished.

The Poetry Marathon is going to start at 9 AM EST on Saturday, the 22 of June 2019 and it will end at 9 AM on Sunday, the 12th of August.

Further details will be available soon.
