Emile Pinet Biography

I was born in a small city, (Bathurst) New Brunswick, Canada, the third eldest of thirteen children, ten girls and three boys. I’m the product of a semi-dysfunctional family, brought up by a physically controlling father, versus a loving nurturing mother. Many of my poems reflect the uniqueness and special circumstances of my upbringing and love of nature.

Just a suggestion, do Standard contests, 35 placements only, no prizes, do it for the fun of doing it _Constance

I've decided to suspend future contests until this coronavirus scare is over, I can't go out and mail the prizes, so I think that is best. Thanks, Emile.

Oops, please disregard my soupmail. I forgot check out for your blog! Thanks again for my placement, Emile:-) Mine also got an N/A in Manage My Entries. Glitches happen, but it can be fixed by unfinalizing and starting over. Just so you know, bud. Congratulations to your winners!

Thank you so much, Emile - it's the thought that counts! (I had similar trouble last time, but corrected it by un-finalizing, then doing the placements, then hitting "Update" before finalizing again - the first time I didn't hit "Update" first - weird!). My entries say my poem got an N/A, but it also has a trophy - crazy PS glitches! Many thanks for the intended placement, Emile! Congrats to all who placed! :-)
