To All you Great Poets - here's a good job
I thought about you great poets when I saw this today:
Greeting Card Poetry - Contract (Comp: $300/poem if published on greeting card; $50/poem if used only in anthology) (telecommute)
writings@sps.com : http://flagstaff.craigslist.org/wri/966855567.html
Blue Mountain Arts is interested in reviewing writings for publication on greeting cards. We are looking for highly original and creative submissions
on friendship, family, special occasions, positive living, and other topics one person might want to share with another person. Submissions may also
be considered for inclusion in book anthologies. We pay $300 per poem for all rights to publish it on a greeting card and $50 if your poem is used
only in an anthology. To request a copy of our writer’s guidelines (which include contact/submission information), please send a blank e-mail to
writings@sps.com with “Send Me Guidelines” in the subject line, or write us at: Blue Mountain Arts, Inc. Editorial Department P.O. Box 1007 Boulder,
CO 80306. You can also visit our Web site at http://www.sps.com.

I'm waiting to hear back on my submission for their new line of divorce cards.
Times are trying. Times are rough.
The divorces is final. You took half the stuff.
No hard feelings. I wish you the best.
You took half of the box sets. I'm mailing the rest.
Have a good life you cold-hearted witch.
I'll see you in hell, you son of a bitch.
Your Ex.

Super cool - I have already submitted! This sounds great, thanks!
I seemed to be looking down from an immense height upon a twilit grotto, knee-deep with filth, where a white-bearded daemon swineherd drove about
with his staff a flock of fungous, flabby beasts whose appearance filled me with unutterable loathing.

He can't show you if it has been optioned already.
I keep sending some in here periodically. They sent me option to buy contracts on three so far, but that means they like my stuff and are considering
using it and now hold the option to use and the rights to it I think it is for 24 months,( I would have to pull out my contract copies I signed to
make sure.) which means they take the ones they have chosen to meetings for marketing and pick the ones they are going to use for each run so mine
could be used at any time in that time period. But until they pick I don't get paid anything. At least I now have three there with a chance and since
I know some of what they like I will keep submitting. This is one where you have to wait it out and hope.

I saw this site before and was going to submit something. Then had problems with my computer and other stuff that was going on and completely forgot
about it.
Good luck Derek! and Laurie, that is awesome!
