IWW Members' Publishing Successes For The Week Ending 11/17/24

Pamelyn Casto

I learned that FOUR of my poems won First-Place Prizes in an annual state poetry contest, a contest I like to enter every year. My First Place poem titles are Rita Had It All, Make It Count, Cave in the Firelight, and Bottle Trees.

In addition to the very nice cash prizes, the organization will also publish a winner's anthology and I'll get a free copy of that. My other poems got 2 second places, 4 third places, and 1 fourth place.

Yes, tickled plum purple is what I am.
