I enjoy writing poetry I've been writing it as long as
I can remember. I'm versitile I can come up with a poem for any occasion but all I really want to do is get them noticed so they can be put in a book for example you know how writers write a story and some where in the mist of the book theres a poem. Any help with how to get noticed will help!!!! serious responses please

I've been working on this speech for the past hour and am getting extremely tired. If you could read through it and help me figure out a way to end it--it would be MUCH appreciated. (This speech is for my English class. I've invented a fictional person.)
"My name is Constance Townsend and I was born in the 14th century in England. At age 14, I began to work as a seamstress. My daily life includes making my own patterns and measurements, hand-sewing, and keeping the shoppe in good order. I normally make clothing for the growing middle class, especially those who are in the wool trade. All the clothing I make is hand-sewn and requires care and patience to finish. The type clothing I make most is dresses for the women of the middle class. The dressmaking process can take anything from weeks to months, depending on the style of the dress and the season it is for.
[I have to post it by paragraph.]

I'm not talking about books where you don't like the genre or hate the author; I'm talking about mind-dribbling, nightmare-causing, IQ-decreasing books that should be burt, buried and sprinkled with salt on sight.

i'm reading his poem by Wendell Berry it's called Manifesto: The mad farmer liberation front. there is this one sentence i just cannot understand it's:

when they want you to die for profit they will let you know.

the sentence before that is, when they want you to buy something they will let you know.

What does it mean when a man tells you this....?
that sometimes he feels like he is no longer human , that sometimes he feels like a dog, or just the wind, and lately just nothing

he texted this to me, and we were just texting one another to share anything that we feel, i like him , but i dont like to think about that, its just that im still a stranger to him,and he is a stranger to me, i just dont have the courage yet to talk to him face to face. and i know that sometimes its a lot easier to tell strangers about what you really feel deep within.

what is he trying to say to me

Asking suggestions for name and image/logo ideas for the new art club at my college. It's a college for the arts concentrating in fashion, interior, and graphic designing as well as merchandising. I am the president of the club so it was left up to me to come up with some ideas but my brain is tired now so I thought to extend the task to the Yahoo answers community. All suggestions welcome and remember to be creative. 10 points the best answer! Thanks and Good Luck!

I'm trying to recall what this series is...
Basically it was about a girl and her sister who found themselves living underground with Goblins or something. THe goblins were "ugly", at first, to them, but eventually the girl married the Goblin King and they had a son, and adopted a strange human girl?

Can someone help me? I loved the first two books of this series...I'd love to find and read them again, as well as the ones that MUST have been released by now...

Thanks!

I need to read a book for my history class and write a paper. What book(s) would you suggest? Anything from Pre-contact times to the present is the timeframe (US history). That's about the only guideline. I can't choose! My bookworm brain has fried over all the possible choices. Anything history related is a plus. Thanks for any help!

This has been happening to me a lot lately. For the most part, it had been in class. I'll see a teacher in front of the class, lecturing and I'll start sizing them up...I'll think to myself, "He must be 6'2" or 6'3"..."

When the lecture is over and I get up to leave, I stand up, face-to-face with the lecturer and sometimes we are the same height, or I am even taller than he is! (I am 6 foot tall.)

This has happened approximately 4 times in the past year. To the point of complete and utter internal shock on my behalf like, "how could I have been so off?"

Also, on the highway, I was driving and was in a, "zone," so to speak, just reacting to conditions on the road. Sooner or later, I looked down at my hand and I felt this overwhelming sensation and urgency to ask and answer the question, "is this real? What am I doing right now? Am I real?" It alarmed me and I resumed driving--but it has been sort of nagging me ever since. It's almost as if I doubted I existed in the first place...

I recently acquired multiple pieces of jewelry from the loss of my mom. Most of the jewelry was made pre 1995 so its not as fashionable today. I'd like to have it all melted down to his and her rings with the stones added from the existing rings.

Is this possbile and if so where could I find some that could handle a task such as this?

Hi all you bookworms!

I'm looking for Adult (or Young Adult) fiction, perferably with a Fantasy spin.

I'm looking for something relatively long, also. (At least 250 pagesish)

I enjoy storylines with unlikely friendships, angst, or good twists. Even "mind-candy" is exceptable, as long as its well-written.

Some examples that I've enjoyed before are:

"Beauty", "The Gift" and most of Gaiman's novels.

Thanks for the help!
