TTB Anniversary

Post by Tracy Mitchell » Sat Jan 13, 2024 7:39 pm

It was six years ago this week we spent a focused, frantic four days conceiving and giving life to this poetry site.  While it has not been what we originally envisioned, six years of continued life is a major accomplishment in this current digital poetry environment. And it has been an incredible experience.  The site has hosted the unveiling of a wealth of poetry, enabled interactions among talented and gifted writers, and continues to provide a respectful and encouraging forum for the exercise of the art of poetry.  Cheers to all who have made this happen, and a respectful cheers to those original founders:  Colm, Indar, Dave, Matty, Sharon, Mark, Kate, Catherine, and especially Cornelius Poe and Marc Gilbert, the real father of the site. 

Maybe I post something additional in another six years. Thanks all for your participation.

Cheers,

T

There appears to be a strange time duality here because while it only seems like yesterday that TTB began it also feels like it's been going forever.
It's longevity is in no small way courtesy of your efforts, Tracy
How are Cornelius and Marc BTW?
Here's to another six years :)
