I knew you'd appreciate my little story! I haven't messed with poetry.com since shortly after you told me they were full of poo. Come to think of it, that's how we "met!"
I discovered something interesting: shvoong.com. They allow anybody to write and submit abstracts, and the writers get paid a certain percentage of royalties. It was almost midnight when I was reading the info on the site last night, so I need to look at it a little more closely. But it might be a good thing to try... if it's legit. I'm a little leary of them accepting work from anybody and then paying them, when some so-called writers don't know why verbs are important, much less what constitutes plagerism and why it is wrong.

Cool--thanks! I'm not as much of a "poet" as a songwriter... and i haven't done any of that in a long time. It comes and goes. But I'll check them out to see if I want to submit any past work. :)
(BTW, i know songs are poems... but there's a difference... and you know what i mean. ;))

Anyway... rambly this morning.......
