Right I have just tried again, if it doesn't go this time I will send individually but there are so many now.

Me neither :-(

Nor me Ann

Thanks BC

No Ann, received nothing from you today. XX

Has anyone at all received two poems from me in the past half hour please? I am not sure I set up the e mail addresses correctly.

and Jill :))

I am thinking of buying shares in printer paper and notebook manufacturers ;)

Jen, I keep getting your e mail address rejected this morning, even when sending as a reply to one of yours. Any idea why?

Rose, Jill sent some on the bottom of the 'new members' email.....

Thank you Teresa and Ann. Will read later...X

Ann, Teresa and Bridget and Linda I have still to comment on your pieces

if I've missed anyone please let me know :)

I have sent a couple out, can you let me know if you have not received them.
And Lol BC so have I.

BC I have emailed it to you.

Bridget, I have received and read it but some people will not be able to read an attachment. We have found it is best if we copy and paste our submissions into the body of the e mails..

I just might pluck up courage to send a couple of poems round for those with the time to read and comment.

Ann

Thanks Teresa.
Well I have read most of those I have recieved and am truly amazed at all the talent .Feel a little wary about commenting though as I am such a novice.
Far from making me even more nervous I am now inspired. So have put the chicken in the oven, prepared the veg and now hope to draft something else.......
Bridget

Morning all and well done Bridget for taking that step:-) Unfortunately I am unable to open it but maybe somebody will email it to me?

I have been trying out some poetry which I would like to try out on someone as I have not been able to get the verses to go with the same rhythm if you know what I mean! lol I know nothing of poetry but am prepared to try. Have also finished Miriam's next step but havent polished it off yet.

Bridget, put the fear away, we're here to support and enjoy, and we're certainly not competing with one another. You may get some constructive criticism from time to time, but hopefully we can all put it in a way that is useful and helpful, and build up your confidence.

Writing is very personal, but sometimes it takes another to read it to find out if you have achieved what you were aiming for when you wrote it.

Rambling Rose

Have sent my first piece to you.

For those who do not know me I am 64 in June, currently living near to Hastings and managing a rather exclusive Rtirement Home for the Elderly. Promised last year not to go back to work but.......
Anyway a big thanks to everyone who helped me last year.
Have four children of my own and two stepsons all adults and leading lives of their own. My only daighter has a boy who will be 13 in March and a daughter who was 10 in December, then there are 4 grandchildren from my OHs children.

I am a typical Gemini, really enjoy researching my family tree, and am wavering between fear and delight re this writing group.
Bye for now

OH yest the cookery Book is looking ever more promising with a publisher looking at it for me. !


Bridget

It is a very good beginning, I'm looking forward to reading the rest, but at the moment I am flitting between sites, boards, emails and my own bits and pieces....I need to have a little quiet time when I can concentrate on it.

Well done though Bridget, it's looking good so far.

Well done Bridget, it's a lovely beginning

have emailed you..
