I mentioned in December that I had entered a poem into the Writing Magazine Christmas Poem competition. The winners were published in the May edition of Writing Magazine. Unfortunately I was not one of them.
I read what the adjudicators had to say about the entries they received and they had some very harsh things to say! One of the problems they listed was that poems entered had nothing new to say. The problem I am conscious of with my New Beginnings poem. The two prize winning entries were certainly original and perhaps mine wasn't as original as it could have been (a new baby bringing life back into Christmas) but I am still proud of it!
