I heard, over the weekend, that Enchanted Conversations will not be using my Rumpelstiltskin poem in this issue. I am okay with it, now I can enter it in a poetry contest. I have read stories about how even some of the most well known writers received hundreds of refusals before finally being published. Bring it on, let's get that part out of the way. I still can't wait to see what 10 pieces they are using. I'll have to wait until the 20th, that's the day this issue should be ready.
I have already started working on the Snow White Poem for the next issue. Published or not, I'm having fun. Having a subject and a deadline can be very motivating. I am still working at my 'poem a week' experiment, and I'm still a little behind schedule. April is coming, I wonder if the Starving Writer will be having a poetry contest again for National Poetry Month. I guess I need to get through March first. I had a lot of fun doing that last year, probably because I wasn't focused on winning. I think I'll try to do it again this year, just for fun. Laura from The Starving Writer suggested that I put a picture of myself with my poetry book on this site. That was a few months ago. I haven't gotten to it yet, but one of these days when I actually put on make-up and do my hair, maybe I'll remember to have some take a picture for me. It all comes from procrastinating too much.
