Rant Time...

Just a quick rant, then I'll be on my way...  This isn't directed at any one person, but rather at, well, several people.

SPELL CHECK YOUR BLOODY POEM SUBMISSIONS!!!

I don't mind having to make the occasional typo fix or having to correct some text coding.  I can handle that.  My problem is when every second or third line has a word spelled completely wrong, or the wrong version of a word used (their/there), or pure nonsense where I can't even GUESS what the line is supposed to say.  I don't care if you're the next Edgar Allan Poe, Emily Dickinson, Charles Bukowski, or Maya Angelou.  If you can't be bothered to check your spelling before submitting work, I can't be bothered to do anything other than click "delete."

Okay, rant over...  I now return you blog readers to your normally scheduled shameless self-promotion.
