Question...

[Many Feathers]

Never done this, thought I'd post one before I quit writing here.

Have just submitted a poem under "Illustrated Poetry". Didn't see anything explaining how to then include the illustration to go along with it.

Probably simple as others obviously have. But would appreciate an explanation as to how I now go about including one to go along with my submission.

Thanks.

All my illustrated poems have had the poem itself on the illustration, but I don't think that matters. The way I've always done it is to submit the poem at Lit by filling out the form here with everything but the actual poem (in other words, title, classification, voting and comment choices and so on). I also add a sentence to the "notes" section of the form stating that the actual poem will be arriving via email. Then I email submissions@literotica.com. I put the poem title in the subject line of my email and attach the poem as a file. I also note in the body of the email that "poem x" was submitted at lit today by Angeline, but the actual illustrated poem is attached.

There is (allegedly) a way to submit illustrations on the Lit form, but it has never worked for me.

There's a sticky at the top of the main PF&D page by champagne1982 (here) that talks about how to submit illustrated poems. One of the links internal to the thread is to neonurotic's Lit article on same.

Read through that stuff. It should help.

Much, much appreciated. Started at Lit by submitting a poem, thought it was only fitting to end that way too. So thank you.
