Cori, am I right in understanding that you still need a DPL for this project?

If so, I put my hand up.

Best,

Barbara

But wait! There were two more:

Sections 49 and 50 are PL OK.

Best,

Barbara

Sections 52 and 53 are PL OK. Rather depressing note to end on....we are all going to rot...

Well done!

Barbara

Sections 47, 48 and 51 are PL OK.

I enjoy the innocent way you sign off after each poem.

Best,

Barbara

I would say it's all downhill from here, but that can be taken in more than one way.

Well, I thought 39 and 40 were hilarious, 41 and 46 pedestrian by contrast.

All 4 are PL OK.

Best,

Barbara

And now 38, 42, 43, 44 and 45 are all PL OK.

Best,

Barbara

Oh, narcissus again and now my conscience is a smouldering hell (for sniggering).

But Sections 33, 34 and 37 are PL OK.

Best,

Barbara

You have no idea. I've had more outtakes with this project than I normally do for poetry. Normal verse read incorrectly sounds or feels wrong immediately at least some of the time, but even when this is word perfect it sounds and feels completely off. So true. To intermittently hear was I wormily t...

Sections 21, 22 and 23 are PL OK.

I think the habit of inverting subject and predicate got the better of our author's grammar at one stage but have I the courage to go back and check? No, I do not.

Best,

Barbara

She is indeed shocking. I've learned that I'll be away for most of next month, so I'll address any PL notes when I'm back. If you'd like a postcard, please feel free to PM me your address. It's the least I can do after spamming you with this appalling verse. Erin Lucky Erin. Have a lovely break fro...

OK. Sections 4, 8, 12 and 14 are all PL OK.

Listening to Section 8 (female garments de nos jours) I was shocked. Shocked.

Best,

Barbara

I'm taking small bites myself. Sections 2 and 11 are PL OK. I think Section 11 has been my favorite so far - laugh out loud at times.

Best,

Barbara

Hello Legamus! I hope my first post succeeds. I have offered to DPL Erin's readings of the Amanda McKittrick Ros oeuvre. I am hoping that these poems will rival in hopelessness those of the celebrated William MacGonagall*. Best, Barbara *Beautiful Railway Bridge of the Silv’ry Tay! Alas! I am very s...
