First Journal Entry

this is my first journal entry and i would like to say that this year i will be trying to put all my poetry that is on here and on paper together into a book, as i then intend to get it published, i have noticed that a lot of the people on here i speak with are from the states, where as i am in England... however i'm sure that if it does get published then it will be available to buy online, to get you all interested, i will be buying some points on here soon to hold a contest with a very high points count indeed, however there will be only one winner.

When the competition starts the rules will be,

No Spoken Word.
No unpublishable pieces - keep the language clean and respectable, and use the proper Grammar and triple check your spellings. (any piece that doesn't follow this will not win i have to be fairly tough with this rule.
Keep the pieceof poetry you write to the same size as a single side of A4 paper,
And finally the winner of the competition will have to come up with a piece of art that will be featured either as background or on the adjacent page to their poem.
Sensual YES Erotica NO, there may be children reading the book, if this book is a success then i may bring one out just for adults.
No personal attacks on other people or malicious poetry that is meant as an insult, i can read these things clearly and poems of this nature will be disqualified with immediate effect.

All i can say is this competition is different.

things to help you on your way,
i like metaphores, Rhyme and Similies,
make me smile, Laugh or cry, but the stronger the emotion i get from your piece the more likely it is to win.
and i will be looking at other peoples comments too, as well as having a hidden judge. so please comment in as much depth as possible. but no slamming other peoples work because you don't like it. these comments aren't nice and your own piece will be disqualified.

This could be your Lucky break for if the book gets published with your piece of poetry in it you will find a cheque shall arrive at your doo. who knows it might be a best seller?

we all dream of this sort of thing, we all want to be noticed well take this opportunity to make me notice you.

you will have a little while yet before i start the competition which i anticipate to be about mid March but when it come it will be a tough competition only one poem per person so really make it your best piece that you have ever written. and if you read this journal entry then you have a head start already.

Good Luck and Blessed Be,
Chaotic-Lights,
William Kirby
