Hooded Stranger's blog
Just a gentle reminder that the Blog feature is not for posting poems. I have posted below the section of the Community Guidelines that explains this:
"The blog feature is not a separate entity for you to post poems in order to beat the imposed daily limit. Poems should be posted only in the stream or in a workshop.
The use of the blog feature is for you to post interesting articles and engage others in conversation. There are thousands of things you can do with a blog, but here at Neopoet, we ask, that you refrain from using your blog to post your poetry."
Dear everyone,
as promised, I list below the main items brought up during the AEC Chat Session. There were more ideas, but these seemed to be the most important ones:
1. Consider changing the current style/type options from: Freeverse, Structured: Western & Structured: Eastern to have more detailed options.
2. To include sub-divisions or tags to further describe the type of poem: dark, erotic, humour...etc
3. Make a limit of no more than 2 poems posted per week. Or post a poem only after making 3/5/7 or 10 comments first.
Dear everyone,
I'd like to formally announce that following Eddie's withdrawal from Neopoet for professional reasons, Lou has been elected onto the AEC and will also take over from Eddie in the Splash Pool Workshop.
Congratulations Lou!
I also am announcing that Jess (weirdelf) has taken over the responsibility of the Shark Pool workshop.
Welcome back Jess.
I hope you will all join me in congratulating Lou & Jess into their roles.
Regards,
Dan (Hooded Stranger)
Dear Members,
I was honoured to have been nominated as a candidate for the recent AEC elections, I was pleased to have been successful and blown away that I also got the chair.
I have been chair for a few days now and haven’t yet been able to sit in it. The recently elected AEC has had to hit the ground running, with no time to ease into the role gently. My team have 3 months to deliver a successful term and help Neopoet move forward and evolve for the benefit of its members.
The responsibility is huge but a real exciting challenge for each one of us.
This is a birthday dedication to Cat (Feb 18) & Rosina (Feb 20)
Love from Hooded Stranger.
Birthday
From left to right I see my friends smiling faces
No matter where they are or where they go
There is absolutely nothing that replaces
The strength and compassion your life embraces
I grow with you my dear friends
Let's celebrate the day you were born
The day your life began
The day the angels sang...
