A couple of months ago I signed up through blink for one of those poetry things, just for some extra points becasue there's none out there anymore. You have to post a poem so I posted this poem about an ex boyfriend of mine. I was a stupid poem or at least I thought so. About a week ago I got a letter from poetry.com in the mail. My poem made it to the semi finals in there poetry contest. Now I'm in a running for $1000.00 and a grand prise for the year of $10,000.00. Now wouldn't have be a great way to go to Disney in Dec.

I go this letter too, then I got one a few months later telling me I was a finalist and I needed to go to DC to read my poem. I am not trying to bust your bubble, but I am suspicous that everyone gets that letter. since my peom was equal to something a 3rd grader would write LOL

Got the same letter, but I'm sure there's someone out there that's going to win the money. But certainly not me. I wrote mine about my ex as well.....it wasn't very nice.

Yep, sorry to burst your bubble, but everyone gets that letter. They want you to buy a book..........it's all about buying a book.

My 11 year old got the same thing through school. His entire Alpha class (Alert Alert Alert Boastful dad about to write!!!), that's a class for exceptional kids, was asked to write a poem. Three were chosen by the company writing the book. We got the opportunity to purchase the book for $30.00 I think. Yes, we bought it. I sensed a scam but mom wanted it. You should have seen the pride in his eyes when the book finally got here. Well worth the the money.

Did you get the 2nd notice too about how its sold out now but since you're a finalist you can still attend DC?
