What I liked ... Every darn thing!

*Bulletr* I'm actually surprised I haven't reviewed your challenge before. I've been taking part since the very beginning. (Although I believe I am a week late at the moment, but I'll catch up.) Which leads me to my first thing I love about your challenge. You allow people to catch up when they fall behind. That has been such a godsend for me. I try to keep on top of activities, but sometimes there just aren't enough hours. So, yes. I love that you allow us to catch up. Actually, the whole challenge has a laidback, easygoing feeling. It feels like you created this contest to encourage people to write poetry and share their poetry, not to go on a power trip, chasing people up when they are late. That works for me.

*BulletR* Because you ask participants to pay into their layaway fund to earn their awardicon at the end of the year, I assume it increases the number of people who continue past the fourth week. That's such a good idea. I only just noticed the part where you say if people don't contribute, but complete the challenge, you will give them a 10K awardibcn. That's so nice.

*BulletR* Your instructions for how to take part couldn't be clearer. I love how you have highlighted the part about posting links to poems. Especially when you say you won't go hunting through people's portfolios to find their poems. I know exactly how time consuming and irritating that can be from my own contests and activities.

*Bulletr* As someone who is taking part in your challenge, I want to commend you for the prompts you give. In the fourth year now, I don't know how you keep coming up with them. They always feel fresh, as well. (Or maybe I just have a rubbish memory.)


Suggestions: I have no suggestions for improvement, But, if I may, I would like to suggest that you open Promptly Poetry for a fifth year when the time comes.
