I'm not so good with introductions, which is why I was hoping to get away without having to give one.   Well.   Hello, greetings, pleasure to meet you. 

I write poems.   Some call it sentimental garbage, some like it a lot.   Most couldn't care less. 

I'm not good with providing critique.   Most I can tell you is whether I like or dislike your work and some vague reason as to why. 

Hoping to stick around a while, learn a thing or two.

Found it.
Click on 'Rules'. It's at the page top. Then you will see "Guidelines for Critique" down near the bottom of the text, click that and...

We're cool with knowing whether you like it or not and why. Every little bit helps.  And you may find you grow as a writer as you become better at critique.

Anyways, it's nice to have you here.

And thanks for doing the intro.

The 'rules' don't apply, by the way.

Well. Not to everyone. To you and I, sure.



There. Now you've met the mean-spirited net nanny of Mary.
