Open Free Verse Contest Judged

Blog Posted:7/19/2014 3:58:00 PM

I thought that by hosting a contest for new free verse poems it would give me plenty of time to ease myself back into the contest scene, but no chance! The contest filled up in just over two days! lol I've agonized over the placements for days and I'm still not 100% sure I've got it right. There are just fifteen winners, so everyone who is on the list has done extremely well. There were some very interesting entries and judging them was a difficult task. Congrats to all the winners, and thanks to everyone who participated.
