Lately I've been considering offering up my poetry to a few contests. I've got lots of reasons for this, but that's not at all the point. I've been sifting a little each week to find the journals that I like, that I might have a chance in, that just might like me. And the more I read, the more I see certain fine print, which disallows any previously published work - even work published on the internet.
I've been wondering about this. I suppose it's really an attempt to address the e-zine community. Because, really, does my little blog really matter? Am I completely ruining myself by randomly posting what's on my mind, even if it's in poetry form?
After much thought, I've decided not to care. If they don't like my self-published-on the internet-poem, I suppose I don't like them, either.
So there. :)
