Y.D.C. Poetry competition

[NuttyKrafts]

Some of us have turned into poets this YDC; I was already toying with an idea but Tiskets beat me to it
"All these poems for YDC should be put in a book and sold on a future YDC. Rather like the YDC Recipe Book I have!"


So, how about a poetry competition? I will collect the poems, print them off (but they will just be in a loose leaf folder) and award a small prize to the one I like best.

Has to be eBid themed but can be as long or short as you like, you can enter as many poems as you like.

Closing date for competition entries is midday GMT 24th February but any entries received up until midnight 24th February will be included in the book.

So get writing and email your creations to me - pm if you need my email addy.

Any comments and suggestions welcome.

Will the poems composed for this YDC be included in the book?

Hi there Nutty,
I think it's a super fun idea!
I have had a go at waxing lyrical and sent my offering to your PM box.
C'mon everyone - get your poet's hats on!

Yes, if you would like to forward it to me please.

BTW, this is YOUR fault - you started it!

Great idea! If you want we would also print the winning one on the eBid blog.

It's on the way to you.

Always willing to take the blame for something fun that can raise money!

Would like to see Craig enter his poem about the Traveling T Shirt, that raised so much funds, during so many YDC's. I would be willing to bid on it also.
