I manage to get the auto-reply. Just submitted mine. Was lacking in inspiration this time, I guess. ---

I just got in from the closing night party, to discover fresh poems from **Crowbar of Irony +3, Rodgers01, Elendil’s Heir** and **Appalling Gael**. Great work, everyone! I’m in transit tomorrow, but I’ll try to check e-mail en route. Keep 'em coming! ---

Well, this month, I took a gamble. It’s not what I usually write, but who knows? I actually feel physically exhausted after writing that poem. ---

**In Winnipeg, Serenata67** - I just landed and found your poems in my inbox. My luggage is still in Vancouver, but I had two new poems to read - I reckon that’s a fair swap. ---

I’m going to have about 20 minutes to spare. What the heck, why not try it? It’s no different from writing 50,000 words of novel in 30 days. ---
