"U up? Here's a rejection."

[Laura McKee @LauraMcKee_fyeh]

My email just sent my 3 Bridport Prize rejections straight to Junk, it has done this before, very protective of me, I’m expecting it might learn to put the kettle on one day.

[Briefly Write (& Read & Think) @BrieflyWrite]

Stage one of Poetry Prize judging is complete 👍

Up next: arguments.

We will then contact all entrants in October before publishing the winners!

i think many writers/artists are like this, but sometimes out in ~the world~ i really do feel like a freak when it comes to how much i can enjoy something without needing to understand every bit of it. and sometimes i enjoy, say, a poem, even more, the less i understand it

Happy #SealeyChallenge!
