No - I'M Still Not Happy

I was placed second, third and sixth in contests does it mean I am happy and don't complain? Of course not, I will complain till kingdom come Until sponsors realizes friends poems are plain.

Hi, Stephan. I don't now what you think of my writing...we haven't connected up till now. I've read some of your writes...three till now. I know you real name! :) Well, this is a theme I've written about quite extensively. There are some sponsors who just don't appreciate my writing style and continuously place me lower down on the scale. Does it bother me? yes...it does. I've had enough top wins with enough sponsors to know my writing isn't bunk, so...I'm choosy with what I enter. :)

You get to know sponsors and what makes them....happy. You play to the audience...the sponsor...if you want that win. If you don't get it on the list time and time again, just move on by....Like I have done with some. I have voiced my complaints before...I've written a poem...To Contest Sponsors...Yes YOU! Things won't change. We roll with the punches.

Stephen I am simply more choosy in the contests I enter - can't win them all - am happier with a low placement than an HM or N/A:-) Hugs Jan x

My point is not me personal not winning, far from it. It's the results that bothers me. Where the 1st placed should have been fourth and the third should have been first and so on and on...
