Wise Words
When you are describing,

A shape, or sound, or tint;

Don't state the matter plainly,

But put it in a hint;

And learn to look at all things,

With a sort of mental squint.

~Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (Lewis Carroll)

PostSubject: Poetry Contest   Poetry Contest I_icon_minitimeMon Jun 28, 2010 10:52 am

This is a contest for the best poem! ;D

Submit a poem about whatever you want. =]
You can express your feelings towards the world, show us something that happened to you or simply write about anything you find interesting...but most importantly, have fun! xD

Poetry Contest Poesia_pura

I will be the judge and I accept two volunteers to be judges as well. :3
Poetry is related to emotions and beauty, but those are relative, so it depends on people's tastes. I can love a poem because it transmits me good feelings, but you can prefer other poem because you identify yourself with it... That's why I want three judges, so that the contest is fairer. ^^

Judges:
Midori
Stainqueen
Shiny Star

The winner gets bragging rights! 8D

So let the magic begin! <3

So should anyone who wants to enter post their work here or just send a private message to all three judges?

Ummm..... we don't have so many members, so if three of them are judges, who is going to post a poem? Maybe we should think about recruiting more members before we have contests?


Also, to avoid bias and potential plagiarizing, how about having the members send the poems in a message to the judges? After the deadline and the judges have selected the winners, the poems can be posted (by the head judge (and using spoilers) as a reply to this thread, and a link to that post can be provided in the first post. Or they can be edited into the first post..

I created a facebook group before, not many people joined... Guess we'll just have to advertise to people?

No, not a group, I was thinking a page that people can see, like, and then it pops up in the news feed for all of their friends.

Ohh... but I doubt many people would be interested. I've posted about Writer's Circle on my newsfeed before..

yes, but I (like some people) don't read statuses as much since my news feed is covered with the pages that people "like"
