O Sweet Flowery Roses

I'd like to take a sec to introduce y'all to O Sweet Flowery Roses, a BLORNAL (blog-journal) that is, as they say, dedicated to preserving the fun in poetry. To paint you a picture, this is the sort of wonderful place that is literally giving out a bag of jewels as a special prize for their DJANGO award. Which, by the way, has a submission deadline of April 1st so if you're keen on getting your mitts on those jewels, get your poems in there quickly! OSFR represents a lot of the good things going on outside of the world of extremely selective literary journals. While they have their place, it's good to know that there are also warm & inviting friends of poetry out there looking to find poem from all sorts of people.

Be sure to also have a look through their archives for some real interesting reads!

I'm going to be off on a trip down to CT and then to PA so no updating for a bit. I'll check in when I can.
