Contest pieces
Here is where I have decided to stock all pieces written intentionally for contests here.

We all seek a bit more exposure at WDC, this is where my contest poetry is found.

Most of the works here are original, written from the prompts set out by the contests.

I'm not yet sufficiently organized to always indicate in the descriptions which contest was plugged, I'll get to that one day eventually.

The more important things, like creating, come first!

Thanks for stopping by
