Poetic New Year’s Resolution

For my New Year’s resolution this year I am offering myself a challenge that I once kept with little difficulty. I resolve to write a new poem every day for the entire year. Some days may be simple haikus, other days may include harder closed-form poems such as pantoums or sestinas. I will try many styles, but try every day. I know that the only way to get better as a writer is to write often. That is what I plan to do this year.

What will your New Year’s writing resolution be? Will you join me in my poetic challenge? Do you have a different writing challenge for the year? Leave your thoughts in the comments.
