Since this week's book of the week is HW's very own poetry anthology, The Sword and Pen, the activity is writing your very own poetry! You never know, someday it may end up in The Sword and Pen II. ;)

The activities range from writing a complicated sestina to a simple haiku, and garner you anywhere from ten to forty points, and more if you do more than one activity!

Check it out down in the Holy Worlds Weekly Challenge thread, and then don't forget to come back and let us know when you finish your poems!

Activity officially ends at 12 a.m. PDT on June 23.

Nope! Just reply and say which option you did, and the counters will add it to your score.

And what about for multiple completions of the same goal?

I think you're supposed to report your poetry here, Mae, to make it easy for the counters. The reporting thread is only for books. :)
