But I hope to post about different things in the coming week that should hit everything worth hitting. Since my last post in September, I encountered what Dean Wesley Smith and his wife call a Life Roll. The house we lived in was [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m also finding myself somewhat in agreement with this Tumblr post I came across, kind of ironically, on Twitter.  Self-Loathing 101: Thought Verbs by Chuck Palahniuk.

I can write a first draft very quickly. That&#8217;s how I normally do it. But then I don&#8217;t show it to people in the state it&#8217;s in 75 [...]]]></description>

Long before I submitted it, several poems and micro-fictions were selected for the anthology 140 and Counting. A few writers never returned their contracts, so I was asked if the cinquain could be included in the anthology. I sent the contract [...]]]></description>

After a couple of rejections, I opted to revise it into what I hoped would be a darkly comic poem. It&#8217;ll appear at Eric&#8217;s Hysterics at [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Drunk Poet at the Wrong House&#8221; is a poem that started out as a serious poem some years ago. It wasn&#8217;t just serious, it was pretty bad and, worse,  pretentious. Over the years it got retooled and ended up as a humorous poem that makes fun of bad, pretentious poems like I used to write.

I&#8217;ve achieved that. Now I hope that someone on the cusp, wanting to submit but unsure, might be prompted to give it a go. That&#8217;s really the purpose [...]]]></description>
