Poetry Contest Deadline Extended Through Midnight Tonight - Tuesday, April 22!

In previous years, we've had some wonderful poetry from people who had never written a poem before. Hope everyone will give this a try!

Hi
i'm new to this forum but i tried entering my poem w/o success, since i seem to have an invalid 'zip code'? I have a postal code that didnt' work and i assume the former is American and the latter is Canadian, so i don't know how others are entering from outside of the states or if this remains a problem specific to me? But i thought it'd b good to report the issue. in any case, if someone can assist me in submission it'd be much appreciated.

Deanna,

Hello and welcome!

We're working on this issue. The SharePost form has not been used for contest entries in previous years. In the meantime, please check your email. I'm going to send you an email about this.

Thanks!
