The rules

2. No sTiCkY cApS

3. Swearing where appropriate is allowed but strictly no erotica (kinda inappropriate for this contest)

4. You MUST use spell check before you post your poem.

5. Poems only sorry - no stories, lyrics etc.

6. Christmas poems only - please only submit prewrites that are on topic!

7. Comment on at least one other persons entry in the contest (a proper critique not just Good Job whatever..  ) and say who you commented on in your Authors Comments

8. Comment on my poem Love to the Beat. I want a discussion and proper critiques! I need to improve my work so i need your honesty here. Good job.. i feel the emotion etc isn't really a critique and will be ignored.

9. If you don't follow ALL the above rules your entry will be disqualified!

10. Just to show that you've read all these rules, please put the following lines into your authors comments:

through this world I've stumbled
so many times betrayed

I know it's lame but experience from previous contests has shown me that people often just submit prewrites and dint bother following the rules :S

Good luck all

    I entered a prewrite. I think this is a great contest at a good time of year. Before there are a hundred Christmas contests. Thanks for allowing prewrites. This poem is very dear to my heart.
