I need a little help please.

Isthmus Seeks Nonfiction Submissions

 

I saw this the other day and thought I might submit some of my scribbling just to have done it.  Those of you who know me understand that I don’t consider myself a “writer” but I do write, I write with crayons.  In that I have little experience with all of this stuff I was needing a little feedback from some of you who are gracious enough to read and respond to my stuff.  These folks publish a bi-annual journal and there is a poetry section.  I can submit 5 poems.  It is a paper and ink publication so the audio won’t be a part of it.  If some of y’all have the time and interest would you please make some suggestions as to what of my stuff might be interesting enough to submit?  I really don’t mind if you have suggestions for editing them.  Frankly I don’t reread them much after I publish them and any “grown-up” help would be appreciated. 🙂  Be most Groovy!  Plato

  1. I’d vote for Bare Feet Running and The Pool. All are good and worthy. I think, depending on the specs, you could even break The Pool up into several related pieces.

    1. Thank you for reading the pool. It is not and easy read but it means a lot to me.

      1. It actually deserves a lot more time than I’ve been able to spend with it so far. I think, maybe, it’s a book. I can feel the gravity of it and the meaning.

  2. I can tell you which are my favorites. 🙂

  3. Oh, I’m first to comment? I feel most groovy. I love that you call your amazing poetry “scribblings.” If that is so, what I write is “brain droppings”. Give me some time? When’s your submission deadline and may I contact you by email? It seems more circumspect to share suggestions there than through this public bath experience. x o x o and blueberry hugs.

    1. I hope there is chlorine. Yes please! platosgroove@gmail.com I have to check on the deadline. I just saw the thing yesterday and bookmarked the site. Then decided what the heck I will send something in. I am glad for your input. I respect your mind and heart. Look forward to the email.

      1. Okay. I’d like to contact you after you let me know the deadline. There is no chlorine. Just oxygen. x

        1. Yes mam. I have to go to work now. BOOOOOOOO!

          1. Be well, safe and sugary until we meet again. x
