Question
Merry meet,
Sounds like an interesting contest. I have a couple of questions (please forgive me if you have answered them and I am too blind to see),
1. how many poems may we enter?
2. in regards to the word bank-may we use more than 10 or is it just 10 alone?
You have a couple of options that interest me and I'll bookmark it regardless of your answers.
