Thanks again for your support FS...

    purrfect tale: You have some great images on your blog. I've bookmarked it and will read the excerpt. I also followed you on Twitter. -


Eli Wilde: Looks like my subscription to FS is coming to an end. That feels like a good time to haul ass out of here. Thanks very much to all those who have encouraged me to write. I hope I have encouraged you a little too...

Bye for now, Frank
    another jim: For shame, Polly_Pisces! Poor guy wants to leave town and you try to send him on a guilt trip...LMFAO! -
    Polly_Pisces: Nay! O Jim the alternative. A little name-calling places no onus on 'em, honest. -
    NadineM: You'll be missed. Come back again soon! Keep in touch offsite, my friend... Nadine -
    Eli Wilde: I'm sure I'll have to come back soon... -


Eli Wilde: I'd just like to say a very big thank you to all those who helped me prepare for my readings at the Forum last night. It went really well! Now it's time to get back to Napoleon Xylophone...


Eli Wilde: Taking a short break, see you all soon...
    another jim: We're paying you to write, Frank22, so no more than fifteen minutes on that break, ya hear?

    ;-D -
    Eli Wilde: But I get paid breaks so I think I'll take a week or two off... -
    Aletheia: Take care, Frank. We'll miss you.

Eli Wilde: Hey, what's happened to FS, was it always so full of money cent whores? Remember, the writing is more important than the cash? Maybe this is a sign of our society nowadays.

Come on, follow the writing, not the cash, you know it's the right thing to do, don't you?

Take a long hard look at yourself, poet.

Or should I call you accountant?

It's grand being back on site again, but damn...
    Rain Chapman: Welcome back! By the way, I like your favorite quote, lmao! And yes, there are many who strive for the top ten on both the poetry and prose side. Some for the rank and some hoping to find a couple serious reviewers. I'm off to pillage your portfolio now... -
    Border Reiver: Cheer up, like minded people find each other eventually. Those who review for cash write short useless reviews and in return receive short, useless reviews. Those who are here to improve on their own writing, write reviews in order to help others. -
    Eli Wilde: Hey Border, you've cheered me up, let's hope what you say is true. -
    NadineM: "Get your knickers off. - This is too funny, it looks like I could put almost anything down here and no one would notice. Hello, Frank calling FS, is there anyone out there? If so and you are wearing 'em, get 'em off. Pictures always welcome... "-NOTICED!!! Goof-ball!! Haha... -
    Eli Wilde: lol, you've gotta know your place in life... -
    Lady & Louis: Catch me taking my knickers off for you, Sir Francis! You ain't no French king ya know! :P -
    Eli Wilde: Hey, no harm in asking, right? lol -
    JeJo: I hope I'm not one of those people! of course, I like the reward afterward, but the biggest reward is the satisfaction of enjoying the actual work :) -
    Eli Wilde: You know the kinda person you are Jejo, (great name by the way) and I believe you when you say the biggest reward is the writing. -
    bluerose675: Hi Frank, a bit late but I feel the same. As a newbie I find it a bit disappointing really. -
    Eli Wilde: Hi Blue,

    I guess we just have to weed out those chasing cents from the genuine ones who love writing. -
    kiwigirl2821: Frank following your column here is better than a Jerry Springer rerun...Oh and I love the idea of Capitalist Pig syndrome but love to chase a Penny pincher or two as well..Definitely about the writing to me personally, but hell have you seen what it takes to get a fair shot at reviews? Oh chit that's right perhaps the concept of GOOD Writes...lmao...yep gonna be fun watching your fan club run for a while...now excuse me I need to go perv some of your work ...cheers Kiwi -
    Eli Wilde: Damn, think I'll just go chase some money and use reviews I've cut and pasted from previous reviewers of the same poem. Do you reckon anyone would notice? Then I could use the money I get to post random words I've cut and pasted from the newspaper. Do you think anyone would notice that too? -
    kiwigirl2821: pretty sure whatever u do gets noticed by someone.
