poetry.com & international society of poetry DON'T HELP SUPPORT CON ARTISTS & BUY FROM POETRY.COM Owings Mills Maryland
POETRY.COM is a rip off poetry site.
ME along with many of my family and friends have posted poetry on this web sight we all got back letters saying we are semi- finalists in the contest i made up this fake name used a friends mailing address and wrote a fake poem that was bad & didnt make sense and i was a semi-finalist i am not surprised everyone who writes a poem is a semi-finalist so don't get your hopes up i mean they cram a zillion poems in one book and charge you $59.95 all they care for is scamming people out of their money.
please do not buy anything from these people if you do your helping support scam artists

I was starting to wonder about their contest, when about a month ago, I got 3 different letters for the same poem to be represented in 3 different books. I was actually wondering longer, if you look back (I think) in November at their winner, the name was Joe Momma. Like they would have let someone use that name. I stated posting poems on their site about a year ago and since, each and everyone I have been sent numerous letters telling me that I was in this book and that book, But didn't have to buy the books. I never did. I looked up these books, 1st the names don't exist, but, for the books that are few and far in between, I was not in. I do have a publisher now, that doesn't have anything to do with contests or anything like that. If someone investigates further, we'll probally find that they've published some book with all our poems as their own. In my case, I have all my work notarized. If they did that to any of my work I have ground for a hugh law suit. The only thing that Baffuls me is that I don't know how they get away with using the Library of Congress name, isn't that a Federal offence of some sort. Anyway, thank you for your report, I won't bother with their site anymore.
