Congratulations & welcome to round 4, the final round!


We've dubbed it 'The Past, Present and Future' and have borrowed the concept from M Harrison , having entered one of her rounds contests before...it was quite the challenge.

The past: Use only your past 3 writes entered in each round of this contest as inspiration/prompt for this final piece. In your AN, please explain how each of the 3 poems you've already entered are related to the inspired new write.

The present: You're only allowed 100 words, NO MORE, but can be less.

The future: You may use any style/format so long as it has not already been used in the 3 previous rounds.

So, when all is said and done this is what you should be entering:

It's one poem: 100 words or less.... that incorporates, in some way, your last 3 poems entered.... using a format that you have not used for any of your previous round entries.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask either one of us.
