I enjoyed your story/chapter. Your writing is simple,honest and direct. I too enjoy the contests. I think they push me to try harder and tap deeper into my creative Outlet. I too, like you, have an ongoing romance and love affair for words and writing. Thank you for sharing your chapter.

Hi Chrissy!
I recognize the Banjo Patterson influence in the meter of your poem. I didn't have much time for reviewing this month, so I have that on the agenda this week.
Congrats on completing another NaPoWrimo challenge! I wish you the best of luck!

Comment from Ogden
I have no assistance to offer after reading your poem, Christine.
It's fine the way it is, and I hope it fares well in the NaPoWriMo competition (the details of which I'm totally uninformed).

Hi Gloria, A class act LOL some may debate this ha Ha no Thanks for a great comment. probably more arse than class though .Yes i did make it Phew and now I can take a little break and need to build up my purse LOL ( My husband would fall over if he knew how much I have spent at $36 Aussie dollars x 30 Hmmmm and I only get 25 member dollars for every $36 So my ego pays LOL but I dont regret the money this time Cheers my friend Christine
Comment from pome lover
very nice and good luck to you in the contest. It IS fun to write, and you certainly seem to enjoy it, which is the way it should be.
I'm sure you know that by reading and commenting on other's posts you build up points and don't have to have large outlays, or any, for that matter. It's up to you, of course, how often you want to post and promote. You probably know all that, just passing it on.
I did not realize snowy River was a poem. Saw both movies and loved them.
At any rate, happy writing.

Hi pome lover Thank you for your review and kind words and suggestions and I do try very much to read others work but I am so busy trying to reply to all the review I receive and write it leaves me little time to just sit and read. I spend hours on here as it is and can never make enough to keep promoting my work and I have spend around $900.00 of my own money at least on just this month alone at $36.00 Australian dollars per poem and that only buys me 25 FanStory dollars it adds up quickly.
I wouldn't be here in any other circumstances but the friendship and support I receive out weigh the cost so to me it is worth tis extravagance Many Cheers to you And the MFSR is a terrific poem and I love Banjo's meter and often put a poem to it
Many Cheers Christine

good grief, Christine - I hope it is worth it to you.
For that much money you could submit to a real self publishing company; I know - none of my business. Good luck to you and best wishes.

Nicely said and nicely written.
It has been a fun month for sure, and interesting to read everyone's verse each day. But, it will be nice to take a break.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
