RE: IS IT JUST ME OR IS THIS SITE STARTING TO SUCK

My poem, "Imagine Not Going To War" has 92 comments in 14 days.

With numbers like that, no, I don't think the site is starting to suck.

I would have to say this site is the single best site for poetry for the 21st century! The collection of poets here is admazing, from novice level, to published professionals, to even the level of teachers. I have found the best way to get reviews is to give them, the more time you spend spreading the joy so to say the more peole will take to the time to return the favor. Also it helps to post a message on the forums asking poets for a read as well as send a quick PM to all your friends, they don't always know when you have new work unless you tell them. Just food for thought, hope it helps. Purity of the soul, journey well!!! cool smile

Hey trgetal, send a private message to as many of your friends as
possible, letting them know you have posted a new poem, and see
if that will get more of your poems read. You have some fine works, my friend..................................................................................gogant

Hey Karma - I don't know if you've been visiting many of your friends poems on this site... but it seems what comes around goes around, so likely you do a little reading so will they...

RE: IS IT JUST ME OR IS THIS SITE STARTING TO SUCK

In all fairness, this site is large, which is a wonderful rpoblem to have. yet, a problem it still is. while we have the oppertunity to take in a vast richness from the world around, we must also try.

this site is deep. tread the water. send requests to friends to read, maybe suggest they pass the word on. go out of your way to read other poems. Other poets do get curious and pop onto your page.

You need to work on your network. Dah didnt get 92 comments in 14 days by posting and forgetting. keep at it, and this site will be all the larger and better because of it!

I agree with Angel and others, the best way to get read here is to read others, most will reply in kind. But I will check out some of your newer writes. Peace and Love, Spence

RE: IS IT JUST ME OR IS THIS SITE STARTING TO SUCK

yep the best way to get reads is to send pms asking ppl to read ya and offering to read their as well. on my poem LOST sOULS i've got 122 reads and i had 100 within in a week. but i dont think any of my poems have under 20 reads. smile because i ask ppl to read them. i love reading comments.cool smile

Honestly, for me it's all about perspective.

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
