I am doing a contest for prewrites.
Normal rules.. you should know them by now.
The Catch: Something I have not commented on before. It doesn't have to be a new poem, BUT it has to be something I haven't commented on, and it has to be under 25 lines.
If you don't pay attention to the above ^^^^ Then you will be disqualified.
So with that said... Have at it!
(Disclaimer: Points and trophies will go up as I see fit.)
Picture is of my son: Dylan and his Grandpa (pop)
**NOTE: I have had to disqualify several people do to failure to follow the rules. 25 lines or less. There are a lot of entries that I end up reading, and I leave good comments on each of them, and while I am sure everyone has some epic poems they want me to read. My time is valuable, just as yours is. So please, Keep it under 25 lines less!!!

well crap. I think you have commented on everything [almost ] that I have written, and the ones you haven't are waaayyy more than 25 lines.
-
-
Well crap nothin! I guess you better write a new one then huh?
Your not getting out of it that easy!
-
-
you comment on my stuff pretty immediately though. butthead twin.
-
-
LMAO! Well well well... Then I guess if you hurry up and write something, and put it in the contest, then we wont have a problem will we? so chew on that one for awhile!
(you know, you could always go wayyyyyyyyyyyy back into the first few writes you did... I don't *think* I have read back that far... But you never know)
-
-
eewwwwwwww. my early stuff is crap on a stick. def not going to go that route.
-
-
Then I guess you better write a new one huh so muahahahahaha
now get to writing my beautiful twin...
Oh! And I am gonna go all the way back to your first poem and start reading until I catch up... or until my eyes fall out from pure exaustion... whichever comes first

-
damn it. I knew I should have kept my mouth shut.

yep

personally, i think this is an awesome premise for a contest. it isn't too often you get a chance to have something you just wrote one day for no contesting reason to have a shot.
-
-
Glad you liked the idea And I am also glad you decided to enter
-
-
CHRISSY!!! i havent got a poem under 25 lines :'(
-
-
Then you really really need to write one! Serously, write one for me!
-
-
Well I may have to come over here and torment you with one of mine. I just commented on an entry in my contest which was an entry in this one and twelve other contests besides my own. I barely have time to run my own contests, rather long enough to look for them. Guess this is a great way to find them, being in 14 at the same time(lol). Good luck with your contest and everyone in it
