Seriously have any of you read Mandi's poetry? [user=Someday In May] She has some absolutely wonderful work.

I know she's a bit shy about it, but seriously there's some finely crafted work in there that deserves to be gawked at. deprivation is one I particularly enjoyed.

Derma Kaputfrom Possum Grape, Arkansas Associate, 2156 posts	on May 9 2007 I think she's a wonderful poet and count many favorites among all the gems she's put up here - most of them concise, well-structured, moving, and demonstrating a very effective use of metaphor. I think I were to define her style, it would fall into a confessional vein (which I don't usually get hugely enthusiastic about) but she writes her poems with such wit and aplomb that I find almost every one to merit repeated readings. Meaning I check out her stuff pretty regularly, even if I've read them several times before.

Nyx 13 posts	on May 10 2007 I must agree! I love the spin she is able to put on things, the way she sees life. lol... I have had the privilege to read her writings for quite some time and she never ceases to amaze me and leave me with thinking... hmmmmmm.... I believe this is the sign of a very very great writer!
Amanda Bakerfrom Kentucky 287 posts	on May 11 2007 HOLY COW!! I have fans. I always wanted to be popular. And not in the "can I have some more to drink, cause I spilled the other cup all over the kitchen floor and you should probably clean it up" kind of way. Thank you Nyx, love ya girl! ----- ...but what do I know?
