AH Anthology

for consideration

I'm working at getting some of my stories together, Imp. My computer with Word on it is different from the one on the net, and I haven't restored the network between the two since we went to the DSL earlier this year, so I've been writing in Wordpad mostly and don't know how to (or if I can) get a word count in it.

But, I'd like to offer the following poems...

Desire Discovered

The Gift

The Bed

Remembering Her
 
BUMP! New stories and poems vetted! READ (and ENDORSE) some poetry, people! Everyone's opinion is equally valid.

[bitch slap]

There have been a few people who've submitted stories/poems and then not even bothered to read/endorse ANY of the other entries. That's not playing nicely and is unfair. (Don't make me name names!) If it continues, I may follow the lead of the SDC and require a certain number of endorsements be given BEFORE anyone can be vetted themselves. I don't want to do that, though, because it makes more work for me -- so GET READING. Those who've already been vetted and have yet to offer any endorsements -- you're in DEBT.

No whining about how busy you are! We're ALL busy. Giving a little of your time to this project is a SMALL price to pay. :rose:

SUBMISSIONS​

Story submissions: Posted HERE. READ 'EM! PM me your endorsements (or post 'em here). PM the author any recommended edits. Be nit picky, please. Everyone wants a quality product. It makes us all look better. To be vetted, a story needs at least 10 endorsements. TIPS: Shorter pieces (<10,000 words) are easier to fit into the anthology puzzle. Third person POV is preferred, although there will be a mix of voices.

Poetry submissions: Posted HERE. READ 'EM! PM me your endorsements (or post 'em here). PM the poet any recommendations.

Art submissions: Kick ass cover art or photograph (in color) is needed as relates to the title/subtitle, plus an illustration relating to each story and perhaps other random illustrations for otherwise blank space. Keep in mind that CafePress has options for merchandising (t-shirts, mugs, stickers, tote bags, etc.) for our cover art image!

Rhinoguy has posted several grids of illustrations, and would like folks to give the grid # and "coordinates" of those they endorse:


Illustrators interested in designing cover art, please review the information found here: http://www.cafepress.com/cp/info/help/learn_book_covers.aspx

EDITING​

Once your story has been vetted, please get crackin' on a thorough proof/edit.

Make sure (at the very least):
  • all homonyms (its/it's, your/you're, to/too, who's/whose, etc.) are correctly used;
  • all quotations are properly punctuated and closed;
  • unspoken thoughts are italicized (rather than quoted);
  • ellipses are appropriately used;
  • adverbs are not overused; and
  • passive voice (a bug-a-boo of mine) is kept to a minimum.

i think what BT meant was that those two poems do not begin each line with a capital. mine, yes, are intentionally done that way. but you're more than welcome to switch it over.

I merely meant the title as it looks a bit odd to me, in the index that is.

I wouldn't dream of tinkering with the lettering of the actual poem. :eek:
That's as much part of it as the length of your sentences or the choice of words.

Hey Imp!

I like you when you're in bitch slap mode.

:D :D :D

Ha! It's quite out of character for me -- and I hate being put in the position of having to do it. :rose:

But you're so good at it. :D

Anyway, I wanna root for some unvetted poems, while I'm here:
Poseur and In Mixed Company by Fool and Anticipation by SnP
