=PoetryPlease:iconPoetryPlease: reports, May 8, 2008
CHAT WEEK

Have you heard about Chat Week? Starting May 10, 2008 at 12pm EST, PoetryPlease will kick off Chat Week with an afternoon and evening of prompting, sharing, critiquing and battling - and this is just the first day! You don't want to miss a beat, so check out our schedule of events which outlines the current week-long, 24/7 plans.

We are slightly disappointed that our "Chat Week Extravaganza" news article has only generated 15 faves so far, so help us out and click the little green heart to the left of the page, k?

Have an idea for Chat Week? Note the club and we'll see about integrating it into the schedule. Note that all times are in EST, so if you are GMT for example, you need to add 5 hours to get your time. Live in another time zone? Check out this handy time zone converter.

PoetryPlease has the following staff openings:

~ 2 staff positions with The Favorites Project

~ 3 staff positions with the Professional Review Team

~ 1 administrative staff position

~ 5 chat staff positions in the PoetryPlease Chat Room

~ 4 staff positions with the PoetryPlease Workshop

There is nothing left, yet, all I can do is stop and stare, when my life once had care.

every time I open my eyes I see the faces of those who I have failed, and the very thought, makes me wish, wish that I was someone anyone else.
