Greetings, friends!
Firstly, I want to thank all of you for the feedback and for responding to my attempt to organize a small contest here - https://steemit.com/poetry/@terrycraft/terry-s-poetry-tryings-changes-small-contest-50-sbd-from-this-post-for-1-winner
There was more than one answer :) I'm really very, very pleased! HOORAY!
Secondly. I want to know your opinion - Do you need this contest (poetic) on an ongoing basis?
Poetry tag is not at the top of the list, but I see many people interested in poetry and writing it! Also, it will be for me an opportunity to support beginners (though based on subjective opinion) at least some amount of SD. After all, STEEMIT - an opportunity! The opportunity to be heard! Opportunity to share and support!
Yes, the idea is still "raw", but I'm thinking about it and will adjust it depending on the experience... of course if you like the idea of poetry contest!
In general, of course, poetry gives us an almost infinite number of topics and ways to express our thoughts! It's just wonderful and literally bribes with its freedom! Honestly, I have not felt such a surge of energy and positive for a long time! I try to formulate the rules of the contest, gather my thoughts, but from my face does not disappear wide smile :)
The main idea - no more than three quatrains when writing a complete work, but also the possibility of other formats (for example, the completion of what I wrote). About prizes - if there are "big fishes" who will support this contest, and the amount will be sufficient to share within winners: three or five prize places - 50/30/20% or 35/25/20/15/5% SBD. In the meantime, with what we have - one prize. 50% of SBD from earnings by my post with a theme announce.
So, I'm looking forward to your opinion on the advisability of this contest! Please, feel free to express your thoughts! Maybe you have some ideas about the format of the contest or the number of prizes! Write everything that you see fit! I'll read everything.
Sincerely, Terry Craft.
P.S. Thank you all once again for such a powerful positive, friends!
