Re: HELLO IN THERE!
I came back
I do every so often, just in case. Would love to be in contact with Pengwenn! Any chance? Wish everyone would come to Allpoetry, even if not to enter stuff but to be able to keep in touch, as Jill does. I miss the old gang!

Yeah, I dread going looking at them. My computer guru promises to go with me and advise me, as I haven't a clue, but he knows what I use it for, etc., so will know which bells and whistles I couldn't care less about having. This one is fine as long as I leave it perpetually turned on. It's when I sh...

I agree with your feelings about being compared with other writers. I have a poetry student on another site who keeps trying to compare himself with Robert Frost and others. Which is ridiculous. He is Singaporean. All his experiences and lifestyle are in the Asian way. Frost was a New England Yankee...
