This page has two purposes:
Volunteers
basically give there opinions. Volunteers critique
poems that have been sent to us, and determine whether
or not the poem is the type of material we wish to
convey on our on-line showcase.
The reason we need more than one volunteer for this task is
to benefit the poets. The more feedback on a poem , the
better. Besides, one person's view of poetry may be totally
different than another person's view.
Volunteers
will also have some say in how this website is run. Oh,
and Volunteers will contribute their own poetry.

Ultimately,
we are looking for people who know poetry. Not just you
wrote a poem and your friends like it, but if you have
formally studied poetry (i.e. college courses) and/or if you
have been published you are more than welcome to volunteer.
We realize this limits a lot of people, but we feel this
will help us give our submitters the best possible advice we
can give them. Volunteers also must share the passion we
have for decent Christian poetry.

To
become a volunteer, please submit an email
to us with your full
name, credentials, and the reasons you wish to become a
volunteer. We will most likely send you a sample poem or two
to critique and send back to us. With this, we will evaluate
this and see if you are approximately on the same page as we
are.
We may ask you to volunteer if your poetry submissions show
that you know what you are doing.

I dabble in just about every art form (except for dancing), but I feel writing, specifically poetry, has always been my strongest points. I have taken several English lit and composition classes, including a creative writing poetry class. My favorite poets include Emily Dickinson, William Carlos Williams, and Pablo Neruda. Currently I am a student (on hiatus due to lack of money). I work at a television studio as a master control operator and a camera shader. My goals are to write Sci-Fi, articles, and some short prose to be published |
