Is that $175 a year? Seems a bit stiff to me. <BR/><BR/>Webdelsol - overwhelm me with the number of venues that are thought the best on the net. I wonder what lever's used to access the judicial committee, 'cause it sure as hell ain't email. And after following links that lead to disappointing presentations one begins to think, 'oh, well, maybe it's an expectations thing, or I'm just not bright enough to comprehend how things are suppose to be assessed.'<BR/><BR/>P&W is an info resource also motivated by the selling of paper. And what are the chances they'll even take the time to notice any venues but those of the 'chosen by the gatekeepers'. And they're paper gatekeepers aren't they? Paper gatekeepers are one-eyed blind to online. It's kind of sad in a way.<BR/><BR/>Does the Poetry Daily take submissions from EJournals like The Cafe? It seems like a slick print mag with links to buying books. <BR/><BR/>I still haven't figured out if these 'websites to sell paper' are being fair to 'my kind'. Why can't they sell CDs and DVDs too? I don't do paper anymore. Does that leave me out of the REAL poetry world? I'm so distressed I tell ya, I could trail my angst all over northern California. What would Al Gore think of me then. Angst contributes to global warming you know. It's true, I've been told by people who wouldn't lie to me. <BR/><BR/>-blueBeau Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01570982615331590643noreply@blogger.com
