Submission Possible! Carrie and Ingrid led a wonderfully constructive three hour session on-line yesterday. I brought order to my backlog of poems, prioritised, refiled and prepared them for public exposure. Time well spent. Thanks Carrie and Ingrid! @carrieetter.bsky.social

Poetry isn't all about getting published. It isn't how many subs you've sent. It isn't about being 'recognised.' It's about the words, the joy. It's about understanding & forever changing the world around you. It's about celebrating each other's courage to form something on the page
