Now I know I haven't been too good about putting new stuff up on here, but the fact behind that is.. There is nothing new to post D: However, I am working on that 'write' now ^^

APPARENTLY: My poem, The Way, is good enough to get me to the semi-finals in a Poetry.com contest! AND get me published??

I opened an envelope addressed to me on the front with "YOUR POEM IS SCHEDULED TO BE PUBLISHED..."

So I tore it open, thinking "what the hell? MY poem??"

And inside I read the papers, which said: "Dear Joseph, After carefully reading and discussing your poem, our Selection Committee has certified your poem as a semi-finalist in our International Open Poetry Contest. Your poem will automatically be entered into the final competition held in April 2008."!!

Also: "In celebration of the unique talent that you have displayed, we also wish to *publish your poem on its own page* in what promises to be one of the mot highly regarded collections of poetry we have ever published . . ."

This is where it gets exciting: "P.S. Joseph, you should be genuinely proud of your accomplishment. Of the thousands of poems we read each year, only a fraction can be published. We are pleased that "The Way" will be featured on a page by itself in this classic publication."

Well I joined an online poetry contest with false hopes of winning a prize. I don't think I'm good enough to even be acknowledged in the poetry society, let alone win anything from my writings, but hey, if you like what you see on my FA page, maybe you wouldn't mind checking it out? www.poetry.com search for Joseph Singer (middle Zachary) I have a few of my works on there. Oh well, bai ^^;

It's about time I start posting my work on here, I have neglected to do so, lost my notebook, FOUND my notebook, and selected a few from my works worthy of postage :P Enjoy!
