Oh no - not again! Posted by Liza October 01, 2005 - 18:02:23 Topic ID# 5548
Once more this year all my good intentions of starting early have gone
to pot! Unfortunately, more because of personal family things than
actual laziness on my part (mostly).

But I have managed to review my nominiations and am now frantically
rushing through the poetry at least - I hope to get most of it
reviewed by tomorrow, but if I fail it is lack of time rather than not
liking the work.

I must say, I have found some wonderful material that I have never
read before. There is some incredibly good poetry around and I am glad
to have had this forum to discover it.

I just want to say how excellent I think this system is. It is so
public and everyone can see what is going on and there are no losers
or winners as every piece of feedback is like a little prize. My
thanks to the organisers and I hope to take part earlier and more
thoroughly next year.

Liza

PS Thanks for the extra time as well!

{{{Liza}}} RL does have a habit of getting in the way, doesn't it? :-S

I'm the recipient of one such review, and am happy to have received it.
I'm sure the same is for everyone else who you reviewed.

Good! That's always a good thing, finding new authors.

Thanks! It means so much to hear that people are appreciating it.

Glad it helps. I know I've made good use of it.
