I have a poetry manuscript of 13 pages that includes 17 poems that I have to narrow down to 12 poems for a submission for an anthology by Monday. Is there any kind soul willing to have a look and give their opinion? I know of several people whose opinion I would especially appreciate, but don’t want to put them on the spot by asking. If you are willing, please sent an email to me asap at jubob2@hotmail.com and I’ll email you the document. Thanks so much. I know…It is late. I didn’t realize the deadline had been moved up.. It just involves making a list of three categories: Yes, Maybe, Not So Much and putting each poem into one of those categories. Fingers crossed. Judy.
Nothing like waiting till the last moment, anyway I would like to try. Check your email for my address.

If I weren’t sooo far from home, I would gladly help. But I bet you’ve already found someone. Hugs.

Yes, Marilyn. I know how busy you are right now or I would have asked you personally. I had seven volunteers including my sister and two friends not met through blogging, four blogging friends. It helped incredibly, by the way, and I’m going to try this process again. These four bloggers volunteered immediately and three have already sent their opinions back to me. How much more time do you have in AZ? It’s been fun seeing your photos…

Just reading this for the first time today, sorry too late to be of any help, since it is already Tuesday. I’m sure you have made the perfect selections. Congratulations on your latest venture.

They reviewed my poems..but decided we can submit any of our favorite poems we have written, including ones already published. My sister requested I submit “I Used to Eat Red,” which I published in my blog but it is also in an early book of poetry I published, so I think I’ll submit it in place of one of the longer poems. No one seemed to like “Bills” which they thought was really prose, not poetry. So the selection process continues. I’m off to the beach today so I’ll work on it while there. Thanks for asking!!!
