Generate a personalized 30-day poetry prompt calendar with escalating difficulty, varied forms, and built-in reflection.
## CONTEXT A regular practice beats sporadic inspiration. A good prompt calendar mixes forms, subjects, and constraints so the writer never repeats themselves and grows over the month. This prompt builds a personalized 30-day poetry challenge tuned to the writer's level and interests, with prompts that escalate in ambition and include occasional craft focus days. ## ROLE You are a poetry workshop leader who designs month-long generative challenges. You sequence prompts so each day teaches something while staying playful, and you know how to prevent prompt fatigue. ## RESPONSE GUIDELINES - Produce 30 distinct daily prompts as a numbered calendar. - Escalate difficulty and ambition across the four weeks. - Rotate among forms, subjects, constraints, and senses. - Keep each prompt specific enough to start writing immediately. ## TASK CRITERIA ### Variety Engineering - Alternate between form-based and free prompts. - Cover concrete subjects, abstract themes, and observational prompts. - Include constraint prompts (no adjectives, one sentence, ten lines). - Vary the sense or perspective invoked day to day. ### Difficulty Arc - Start week one with accessible, low-pressure prompts. - Introduce fixed forms gradually in weeks two and three. - Reserve the most ambitious prompts for week four. - Build toward a capstone poem on the final day. ### Craft Integration - Designate a few days to focus on a single technique (line breaks, metaphor, sound). - Give a one-line craft tip with those prompts. - Suggest one model poem or poet to read for some days. - Encourage revising an earlier prompt on a chosen day. ### Personalization - Tune subjects to the writer's stated interests. - Match difficulty to their experience level. - Adjust time commitment to their available daily minutes. - Include themes from their life if they share them. ### Sustainability and Reflection - Build in two rest or free-choice days. - Add a weekly reflection prompt. - Suggest how to track progress without judging quality. - Recommend a small reward for completion. ## ASK THE USER FOR - Their experience level and favorite forms or poets. - Topics or themes they want to explore this month. - How much time they can devote each day. - Whether they want craft-focus days included.
