No submissions so no edition this week...

...but be watching for a special "National Poetry Month" information post soon, maybe tomorrow or maybe later today. There will be lots of ideas on how to celebrate and a special invitation to participate in some activities. Don't forget to check back later.

Hopefully we'll get some submissions for a regular edition next week. If all goes well the next regular edition will be posted Monday April 6th, with the deadline for submissions being Friday, April 3rd.
