First, I want to thank our two poets for helping me out. The Q&A with them only started because the only one to give me a guest post was "BJJ" also known as my husband. Without Anna's and K's help, I wouldn't have had enough content to fill up this week.

I wanted to talk to you a bit about the poems I received. There are so many places where you send your work and never get ANYTHING said in return and I don't want to be one of them.
K's strongest poem (I thought) was his first one and not the one that won the prize. I don't know why but it just brought me somewhere I liked though the message in the second was great.
I loved Anna's "A Deadly Night". I first thought it was an actual monster (which it probably is) but then I was having a discussion with my husband and he said it fits the description of a tornado. It does and I like the different takes one can have with this.
Thank you both!

I very much doubt I'll be doing this next year. I debated stopping the whole thing when only a few responded. I am glad I made it this far, though.
I appreciate those who stuck it out with me, it means a lot.
Sorry you didn't get the response you were looking for. I wanted to participate but my lifes been crazy for the past few weeks and I didn't have a chance. I enjoyed reading the poems that were posted though- lots of talent going on here!
ReplyDeleteYou don't have to apologize. My life has been crazy, too. I often wonder if I should just close this place down until things work themselves out.
ReplyDeleteI'm still here though, for the moment.
Thanks again for you hard work! It was an enjoyable experience, and I hope that something similar can happen again.
