Good morning, Elle and all...
I have a question. I realize the site is centered on poetry and other art forms, but what would you think about including a section for short stories and/or novels? I realize I've been a member only a short time, and I surely don't want to step on any toes. Just a thought...

Hiya, David! You know, when I first constructed this site, I had a short story section.... it was never posted in or used, so I removed it. But, always I am open to change and growth, and if you think it is a forum of interest, then we can add it back, no problem! No ones toes stepped on, this site is all about the writers and making it a comfortable place for them to express. It's my honor to do just that! Always feel free to offer suggestions, no harm in that whatsoever. Consider it done.

Okay, it's all the way at the bottom. I would like to see all of the forums be more utilized. There are some neat items in all of them. Explore & post around, guys!

I've been a long time gone, but I appreciate the short story & novel link! I wrote a novel last year & I'm cleaning it up now. Elle-can you e:me off-site w/ your email addy? I must have an old one saved, cuz the last couple of emails I tried to jet off to you bounced back to me. =(
As for poetry, I've been freestyling it. Went to the Spoken Word a couple months ago...same one I've gone to for a couple of years-the same one that had always been supportive in the past, and got dissed for being white & hispanic. Not ever easy for me to get up on stage, so I took it very hard and haven't been back. =( But, I did start a teen & PG-13 open mic with a couple of ppl from my writers' group-we are running 1 Sunday per month...the next one being May 15th. I've been writing a totally free, unfettered type of poetry that I'm really digging, but not sure if it is the style I want to stay with consistently.
A lot of changes in my life...right now I'm working 2 consulting jobs, and I'm just so busy, that writing hasn't taken a back seat...but it has defintely taken the passenger seat. And I miss it.
Hope you all are doing well! Take precious care...hugs, grouchy
