Fans needed. (Writers' Cup)

    Once upon a time there was a writer that was bored.
    He came up with some topics that were great for all - they soared.
    But then one day they plummeted - to the bottom rung,
    So then the writer decided that the topics must be dung.

    If you are this writer and you need some active hope,
    Prove to us you a brain and that you are not a dope.
    Post to here to get new fans and prove they do not stunk. (stink.)
    And get a bit of encouragement to keep your writing-spunk. (spink?)

    To all who post a thread within, I hope you add me too.
    And soon we'll have a large fan base and then we won't be blue.
    For each and every one of us that comments and "thumbs up"
    You'll help a writer to achieve their own "Writers' Cup!" *

    smile Happy postings

    Seems to be going well so far. So... nobody has caught (or at least brought to my attention) my brain-flatulent yet. smile Yes, we all have them and yes mine happened to be in the brain sentence... Do you know what it is? Bet you have an idea... Anyway, great to be mutual fans of all of you!

    It will be okay...

    I understand...
    ::sniff::sniff::

    Don't be my fan out of pure sympathy...
    ::sniff::

    I'm only kidding, but I certainly think it would only benefit all to have an ever-growing-intra-hubber-fanbase.

    Happy Hubbing - don't forget to be my fan. smile

    We will all be each other fans! (LOL)

    Here is a funny joke since his humorous poem put me in the mood for some fun! wink

    There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed his desire to become a great writer.

    When asked to define great, he said, "I want to write stuff that the whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, howl in pain and anger!"

    He now works for Microsoft writing error messages.

    lol

    Hehe Hope you enjoy that!

    Hey, look at me, I'm also new
    And I'd like a few more fans too
    Or is my post far too delayed
    Now that the poetry card's been played?

    I realize I've got a few,
    and send my gracious thanks I do,
    But I feel a strange new emotion
    Now that I've indulged in self-promotion!

    I feel alive! A load's been shed!
    (I mustn't let it go to my head)
    Ah well, I guess it's OK to try
    So now I'll wave and say 'goodbye'.

    Yeah I know the grammar isn't that great
    But I gotta go now, it's getting late...
    Also by now I've probably bored you
    But I'm becoming your fan, see, I haven't ignored you!
