And that has only come from everyone's encouraging posts. Even choosing a poem can be nerve wracking, let alone writing something new. It has been great to see first-timers giving it a shot, and being surprised by their own creativity. Personally, I've been given the motivation by you lot to write a bit which I've absolutely loved doing. It has been a great opportunity to express myself creatively, which is something that tends to get put to one side too much with life's other priotities. It has also been great to meet some new lovely people. Fellrunning poetry fans. They are the ones for me.
