Years ago under a different account I followed a passion for poetry. Now years later and more life experience I want to regain that passion.

It is with great excitement and delight that we welcome you back to Versification 2026! With new ideas, structure and challenges, we are excited to see what this year holds!! Versification is a contest where we challenge the poet to write a new entry for every day of April. Additionally, it challenges poets to write in some of the unique forms of poetry in our daily challenges.

Damian DeGuia's your average 16 year old kid - just trying to keep his grades up, navigate through the motions of high school, and maintain the friend group he cherishes. From maintaining the growth he's gained from his past of constant temper to hiding his crush from everyone he knows, his life is a similar path most may have followed before. But underneath his stoic demeanour lies a web of feelings, struggles, and a goal to prove that he's not the angry little kid he was. Combined with the impending sense of doom and the recent increase of UFO sightings growing around Damian's oh-so regular life, will he be capable of holding it all together? Or will it all collapse and crumble to dust? ACCOMPLISHMENTS: 1,000 READS: NOV 15, 2025 #2 IN ORIGINALSTORY WE UP

| 2x Featured | When Iolla Kecky makes water levitate during a Chemistry lesson, her innocent life as a student is smashed into smithereens. Unbeknownst to her, she was experimented on as a child, and it's related to her unusual eye colours. To make matters worse, not only was the successful result of the experiment leaked, there is a bounty of 5 million dollars for the capture of all seemingly random five teenagers who took the dose, in order to remove the cell from their bodies and sell it at a black market auction. The only way to save themselves is if they all work together. Except not everyone is on board, and a dangerous enemy is picking them off. The only person who can help them is the person that did this to them to begin with. If they don't, they risk assassins around the world acquiring their powers and using it to cause chaos.

Trying to put into words what the rollercoaster of emotions depression and anxiety is.

KILL ONE TWIN, FREE THE KINGDOM. On the island of Wyrith, death has a name: Morana. Gifted - or cursed - as the realm's last necromancer and most lethal assassin, her power is a whisper from the grave. However, even she struggles to bridle the magic clawing under her skin. Life breathes through her twin sister, Ilyana. The urge to heal even the smallest of wounds fuels the tips of her fingers, yet not even her blessed magic can bring back the family she's lost. All that's left for her to inherit is a duty of isolation and sacrifice. When an archaic necromancer curse awakens, sealing in Wyrith and taking lives one by one, the sisters face a harrowing choice. After a decade apart, will they unite to unravel the ancient magic before it's too late? Or will secrets and enemies shred their last hope for Wyrith, leaving nothing but an island of corpses?
