So, with the deadline extended to April 17th, here is another reminder to finish polishing up your sonnets and send them in!

Tim is right in saying that entries do not have to be workshopped on the Sphere, and they do not have to be previously unpublished. They can even be former bakeoff submissions (though not finalists). You can coin something new or dredge something out of the distant past. Anything with the standard 14 lines.

One more time, the address for submissions is gailxpoet@cox.net.

Gail: somewhere along the mysterious internet lines I seem to have lost the thread (sorry). Can't find any come back about submitted sonnets. Guidance pls.

Doina, go here and you should see a list of all the threads on the Distinguished Guest board. The threads that are named sonnet # 1, sonnet # 2, etc., plus some identifying word, are the bakeoff sonnets. The numbers are scrambled, but those are the threads with the contending poems and the comments about them.

Hope this helps.

Sorry to be slow on the uptake, Doina. Maryann has given you the right advice.

Wrong thread.
