Hi .

 

I just wanted to post this quick note about a site called poetrydances.com.

Over there  we read poems from poetry sites and blogs across the Internet. Once we discover what we feel is a great poem- we post a link back to the site and page where the poem is hosted.We also offer favorite writer status and space to post blog links and usually additional poem links to the writers of the poems concerned.

 

Favorite writers along with their poem/s are also mentioned in a press release we run each quarter- which shows the writers that became 'favorite writers' for the period. We also accept submissions and read requests.

 

With great thanks to Lindsay, a read request button link to our site has been added on each page containing a poem on writingroom.com. You'll find it just below the 'share' button on the right hand side. This has been done to make it easier for writingroom.com members to submit requests to poetrydances.com should they wish to do so.

 

What do we look for in terms of a 'great' poem? difficult question - no fixed answer really. But the poems we post always move us in someway. We prefer to post poems that are not heavily rhymed- and that are probably more natural free flowing, but not exclusively so. By taking a look at some of the other work we link to already its probably easier to see where we are coming from! 

By the way poetrydances.com has a page one or two listing on the major search sites (Google/Yahoo/AOL etc) for these searches:

This could mean additional exposure for your work- if it is listed on our site.

Side note- its not necessary for poems to be of a given length, any will be considered - except perhaps  exceptionally long poems.
