Writing 201: Poetry takes flight Monday — you’ve got a few days left to register.
Registration for October courses is now closed. See what’s coming up in November!
Do you dabble in verse? Would you like to start? Writing 201: Poetry is a two-week course that lets anyone practice the poet’s craft with a supportive community of like-minded bloggers — learn more about its structure and topics!
This session runs from Monday, October 5, through Friday, October 16, and has been updated since we last offered it, so folks who joined us last time can find fresh inspiration.
That sneaky feeling of something missing (iambs and dactylic dances – what do they mean?!) has almost gone and I feel energized to take up poetry writing more seriously.

How do Blogging U. courses work?
Blogging U. courses exist for one reason: to help you meet your own blogging and writing goals.
- Courses are free, flexible, and open to all.
- You’ll get a tasks or writing prompts to respond to each weekday at midnight GMT, along with our best advice and favorite resources. Do them on your own time, and interpret them however makes sense for your specific blog and personal goals — we’re not grading you, we’re not checking to make sure you complete every task, and there’s no “wrong” way to use the resources we give you. Weekends are free!
- Each course has a private community site, the Commons, for chatting, connecting, and seeking feedback and support. Daily Post staff and Happiness Engineers will be on hand to answer your questions and offer guidance and resources.
