I have precisely 0 submissions. I guess that makes sense, a few people I had been counting on doing it had suddenly become very busy before it actually started. And, if I'm going to be honest, I really didn't expect much to come of it, anyways. (Exaggeration, my friends; the mark of a true bard.)
But, if you are reading this, and you have not been commenting on my blog, I urge you, if you have time, please participate! This is a great way to get involved in the community here, and it's bound to make an excellent first impression! Not to mention it would provide more writers for the challenge than just Lucy and me.
In fact, you know what, now I have added a space in the submission form so that every time someone submits a part for the challenge, I will have to write a poem with a theme of their choosing. Plus, if you really don't want to get into the community quite yet, and you don't comment on the blog much, you can just use a random pen name that comes off the top of your head and remain anonymous, too, and get that poem that you want! Basically, I'm trying to make the offer appealing enough that anyone who's on the fence about it will be encouraged to submit something. The bottom line:
This is no longer the time to sit and wait! :D Now you can choose a side! I promise, the rewards won't get any better, unless you write the best in a series of submissions and you win, which is pretty good. But still, keep trying, and with how inactive this is, you're bound to win! At some point!
