I might be the only man here, but I look forward to any opportunity to learn and develop my writing. I've published poetry, but I know I still need a lot of work.
I would be. I've been told I've been good at writing romance before in my literary fiction. I've even been told by a few people that they were surprised I wasn't a woman. Which can be an awkward situation. But I look forward to learning from you. I have mainly been a fiction writer despite having several poems published. It is a genre worth exploring and getting to know better. I think I'll try to convince a poet I know to join as well.
So thrilled for this opportunity! But love is not my thing. It feels too big to tackle. Could I just write the sex without the love? Is that too tawdry? Empty? Am I revealing a failing here? The shallow reality of my life? Will an editor go for a quickie sometimes? Can't wait to try!
My first sexy poem was just published in Lavender Review!

Haha you’d be surprised by how many other men are into love poems, Paul!

As an editor, quickies are the best, Emma haha :)
I’m wondering if one can write good love poems while being bad at love - I guess we’ll see. Looking forward to it!
A lot of good love poems are about “bad love”, so, you’re definitely onto something there!
That is already inspiring!
Looking forward!
Yay same!
Excited!
Me tooo!
