I should have said this earlier...

I should have said, thank you, so now I will.

First, tigerjen, thanks! I was reading the literotica discussion board long before I ever joined in. I don't always jump right in, but thanks to you, tigerjen, I did. When you first mentioned one of my poems on here, I was very excited. That's what got me started posting, and I love it! And posting messages on the board led me to reading more about poetry, and led me to submit more poems. I realize now that some people need a little encouragement. I'm sure there are other new poets out there that could use the same push. tigerjen, I think it's great that you promote all sorts of different poems - even the ones that some people think are a waste of time. You never know who you may be encouraging. Maybe someone with potential.

Daughter, thank you, too! I appreciate the email and the comments you post here. I've learned - not sure how much - but I've learned!

Thank you, Unmasked Poet. Every time I read your critiques, it's like taking a poetry class.

UR welcome, and Thank you!

You're welcome, WE, and thank you!
We all as poets/writers all need that encouragement,
and that kick in the butt to get motivated. It's the little
things such as saying "thank you" that give us all
the drive to keep on writing.

I am glad that it took a promo of one of your poems
by me to get you on the board and start posting! I
never got onto the boards until late August even though
I had started on Lit back in early July, so it took me a
while before hopping on the boards.

One more thing.....we have our own style of writing,
but it is individuals such as yourself, daughter, U.P.,
etc. (and me) that keep this board hopping...never a dull
moment! We all may agree or disagree at times, but
the beauty of this board is having that diverse group
of writers, from different backgrounds, that makes things
unique.
