What took you so long?

*nodding*
*eyes wide and somewhat amazed*
Yeah, really, that was my first thought too. Her first? But it was definitely worth the wait, just don't make us wait so long for the next ones.
(Yeah, I said ones...*smile*)

 

[fridayam]

Maybe we can still heal the disconnect between the forum and the new poems posted, which if anything has grown worse lately. I want to see more of your wonderful poems out there

ooh, yerv gonnan made me blush

all my stuff is on the forum already - i update with each new piece so i have them all saved somewhere - what's left of them. i lost a stack of poems onceuponatime.

i will keep subbing, thanks again, remec.

only time will tell - but i felt it to be something i should do now, since i'm a mod; hopefully more of you great poets will put your own stuff forward more often and we might build a better rep for this place. who knows? guess it all depends on where else you intend to submit them. that has to be a big consideration. and when people have had a fair few pieces published already, they're not always in such a hurry to get the next one published just for the sake of it. your own work, F, is always a pleasure to read on the new poetry.

 

[fridayam]

Don't you think there are enough wonderful poems out there on the posts, in the forum, for a book?

You can't get enough praise, chip

 

[UnderYourSpell]

oooh just seen this must go and have a look, it feels like I've helped in the birth of a baby lol

 

[UnderYourSpell]

found it and commented now kick me up the backside and make me start submitting again!

 

[GuiltyPleasure]

*pout* I thought it'd be one we hadn't seen yet.

Seriously, it's still an impressive poem, now shock us with an untried work.

(I can hardly talk - going through a dry spell here but that's hardly your problem cb - submit away.)

an anthology of our collective forum poets? now wouldn't that be something...

oooh just seen this must go and have a look, it feels like I've helped in the birth of a baby lol

well, in a way you acted as midwife, so yay, lol

found it and commented now kick me up the backside and make me start submitting again!

*kicks annie up the rear end* Now (insert gruff voice) get to it, girl; i want to see something submitted by you by Friday, latest. k?

ok. soon. i shall write one just for the occasion, subbing it as and when it arrives. thanks, T. sorry about your dry spell, but i've always found mine are a bit like winter is for trees - gives them that rest they need to dream and return afresh.

Think that's been done or certainly talked about of course there's nothing to stop it being done again

who organised/funded it before, annie. any idea?

 

[UnderYourSpell]

goodness me now you're asking you'd have to ask Angeline/Charley/Lauren/Tz because I can't remember

 

[UnderYourSpell]

There's a LIT BOOK so why not poetry one from whoever funded that?

 

[fridayam]

There are a hell of a lot of good poets here. I think A Lit book of poetry (erotic and non-erotic) would be a goer.

 

[UnderYourSpell]

would different countries cause a problem?

i don't know - maybe we should put it to the powers that be out there. though who'd select the material, edit it and generally get it all ship shape n bristol fashion? does Laurel do all that stuff?

maybe an e-book, if not a print version. the interest in it would probably not be as high as other genres here, but we do have some fine poets ... it'd be good to see them get a little exposure and it might pleasantly surprise visitors to the site, seeing the quality that exists here.

would different countries cause a problem?

i don't see why that should be a problem. books i've been in before were made up of authors from all around the world.

 

[BooMerengue]

Somebody did this once. Made a book of our poems. I remember cuz I was in it but I never bookmarked it so no way could I find it now. I think the book was made to sell for a charity or something. Ange or Evie would probably remember...
