The Sonnet Project



Congratulations to Sonnet Boy who has completed his self-appointed task of writing a sonnet every day for a year.

He's wrritten Shakespearian sonnets, Petrarchian, and composed a few according to a form of his own. All pretty strict in form, but nonetheless natural and flowing

He tackles all subjects - sex, drink, horror - often with humour, always with skill.

He's an inspiration to all would-be sonneteers, and a rebuke to the idle ones.

Try this selection.
