Nice one. Footles are not so easy to write. Glad that you shared these with us. Sara K

I am glad contests have so inspired you. Me too. I just get so frustrated by really complicated rules. I hope mine never feel extra complicated, but I guess they do for some people!

I have never thought your guidelines were too complicated. I didn't enter the most recent one because I was busy with several things I had to finish. When instructions require me to jump through too many creativity-killing fiery hoops, I just move on! : -) Thanks for the response. Janice

I feel the same way about soup as I'd never heard of haiku let alone written a limerick until i joined - now I have 2 humour books to my name - not bad for a mere poop poet who hated poetry at school lol:-) hugs jan xx
