I sent back the proof sheet, so I’m supposed to be published! I’m going to check this goal off my list now!
Empressive is getting ready to take a shower and head to bed.
How I did it: I actually found the Poetry.com website when I was doing a survey. I had to submit a poem in order to complete a survey so I submitted one I had written long before. The poem was published in their annual poetry book so my parent's purchased it. Read how I did it…

How I did it: Alot of research and proding from the rents when I was a teen. Who knew. It made me feel that I actually did something to be proud of. Not something for anyone else something all for me! Read how I did it…

I just need to send back the proof sheet and I’ll be published. They haven’t decided on the top 10 poems yet, and they’re letting the poets vote. Hopefully, I’ll be able selected as one of the top 10 people and I’ll win a free copy of the book. The books are kind of on the pricey side…
I plan on mailing the proof sheet tomorrow, though!
There will never be a time when i don’t think of you.

Best Friends stay friends for life but now your gone it will grow stronger than it was.

I submitted my poetry contest entry, and I hope to write a few more poems in order to enter more poetry contests. I’m not sure if I’ve already mentioned this, but I’m not much of a poet; however, since I plan on being a writer, I want to poke my nose into both prose and poetry.

I found a poetry contest online and I plan on submitting to it. They publish them in a book, or at least the top ones, and hopefully I will be able to write a really good poem and receive a free copy of the book. :)
If I don’t win this one, though, I suppose I’ll keep writing anyway. I believe they host several contests throughout the year, and I’d love to be able to cross this goal off of my list.
animalxx Oh no..
I have a published poet/editor reading a few of my poems. xD
Wish me luck!
I’m honing a poem I wrote under carefull supervision in college, one I won a contest on recently, and one that would fulfill another goal. I have connections to a publishing house and magazine I interned at.

I finished reading the short story book, or at least the parts that I found intriguing and useful. Now I’m starting to read the book about poem writing, and by that I mean I’m keeping it close at hand so when I do want to start reading I will have it.
Additionally I submitted a poem that I’d written on my computer a while back for publication, and although I don’t think it’s amazing it’s probably one of the only poems I’ve ever written outside of school and we’ll see how that fares. I don’t have great expectations for it, but again, I wanted to be working towards this goal actively.

I don’t see myself as anything close to a poet, but poetry is something I respect a lot as a form of expression and I would like to express myself in such a way that I seem somehow interesting enough to be published.
Additionally, if I were to write a poem on something else and be published, I would be hopefully more encouraged to write more. If I were to write a few, quite possibly more than a few, poems I would definitely be broadening my focus and I would become less of an idiot savant.
I am currently in possession of both a book on poem writing and short story writing and I hope to start reading them soon. I plan on reading the short story one first though, on account of the fact that’s on loan to me.
