Overview

Read one collection of poetry per week in 2025.

Additional personal goal within the numeric challenge;

  • more than 50% of these works should be by global majority poets
  • at least 25% should be by queer and/or trans poets
  • at least 50% of these should be by women, non-binary, and/or GNC persons

A good companion challenge would be the on-going "Gremlins Do Poetry" challenge which has challenges based on theme, region, collection type, poet, etc!
