The Sept/Oct Poets&Writers includes my book as one of 12 recommended craft titles “by some of contemporary literatures most insightful and generous luminaries. . .” I am a luminary and my book is one of three poetry titles. The write-up, short but sweet, a lovely honor.

@MrPitbull07 Should have been at least $100. Major cheapskate!

We went to a dinner as a group and had a $500 bill. We tipped $40. We were happy we can be able to give our server something, but her reaction was the opposite. She told us she assumed we're going to give her at least $120. When we asked for the manager, she said she was just joking, but she wasn't smiling at all. Idk, but is $40 tip enough for $500 bill? I just feel like expecting $120 is not realistic. ~Lea Robertson

@elonmusknews30 Yes

@BeckyLTuch Totally agree. It’s unfair to those who met the deadline. And it’s done to raise additional funds.

Literary magazines & presses should not extend writing contests. It is unfair to writers who haul ass to make the deadline. Agree or disagree?
