Rock n' Roll Doggie VIP PASS
WARNING>> THIS IS WAYYYYY LONG..THIS MAY BE WAAYYYY SAPPY..Ah well this is the corner, you should be used to it by now!
Well well, it is almost a whole year since I joined interference and one of the first places that I discovered was this gorgeous lil pocket of the world that I now consider my interference 'home'.
Originally, I think Dream out Loud resembled the 'Treasure' forum with about 3 posts. When I fist was checking out the forums and I read there was a forum dedicated to writing and sharing of words with other U2 fans, I thought I was in heaven.
I came here and there was a post written by a girl who had just lost a good friend of hers and he was a huge U2 fan.
I will always remember that post. I replied to it and then didnt come back for a while because it was pretty empty around here.
After hanging around the main forum for about a month, I remembered this place and decided to check it out again.
I stumbled across 3 people who were writing some amazing poetry and sharing their ideas with each other. Their names were Scappy, Alisaura and The Wanderer.
I was taken aback by how cool the three of them were sharing their poems and talking to each other about them.
I was amazed by their writing and felt maybe I shouldn't butt in. They had been writing fairly depressing type poems and I remember scappy in particular wanted one of them to come up with a happy one. The Wanderer obliged and I read his poems every day if I could.
I decided I couldn't hold back any longer and to jump in and share some of the silly stuff Id been writing.
I was welcomed by the three and Scappy and I decided to invite other members of the board to the corner. They didnt come rushing hehe.
Soon I was on a roll posting poems all the time, reading the great ones that those three were offering and the few lone poems here and there from others. SHortly after, 3 of the now legendary poets from the corner, BabyGrace, Bicycling fish and frogbat joined in and really added a special feel to this place.
At that point I felt like we really had a special thing. Achtung Bebe herself offered us so many great poems at that time and others started to share.
I truly love this lil corner of the world, and yes, its only a message board but this place can be pretty cool at times, and not so cool at others, but I think that this is the one place that has always stayed constant. The reason for that is the people.
All my favourite writers still post here, although bikerfish its been a while!
So Id just like to take this opportunity to say a HUGE thankyou to all the coolest writers at interference, thankyou for making this place worth coming to and thankyou for giving me such wonderful and praising feedback about my writing. You are all inspirational!!
Voxxie, Skeek, trav, foray, deep in the heart, hermes, ishkash,brettig, Edgevox, loafer, upwiththesun, scatteroflight, rougerum,brandon, bacchus,holy john,dancing barefoot,scappy, and Salome thankyou so very much.
And to my very special family of poets... popkid, the man with the biggest heart,
Alisaura with her stong striking words which always leave me wanting to read more, bikerfish who's stuff always left me wondering what on earth was going on in that head of his as the poetry was always so heavy and gutsy,
Bebe who always amazed me as she was so young and full of hope,
Michael, my dear wonderful friend who's writing blows me away everytime I read it(people still think the sun, moon and stars was written by Bono hehe)and speaks to me so true. You are such a talented writer.
BabyG, oh Nikki, the talent you have surpasses anything I could ever dream of having. You are the angel of the corner and your writing is so full of depth and character, I know that you will go far with talent like that!
and my dear frogbat, I always read frog's stuff and thought "hmm that guy sprinkled one too many flower petals in his cammomile today" You have THE most amazing imagination and the way you can put sentences together astounds me. You have far more than just a knack with words, you possess a truly Frogbattian style that none other could ever reproduce and I love everything you create, babe!
I love you guys and you are a constant inspiration.
My final thankyou goes to Craig for giving me such joy and pleasure, for encouragement and support, for inspiration and honesty, for giving me more than i could ever have imagined. Your writing has from the day I saw this place, blown me away.The way you think and feel and then put that into words is not only a gift but a true indication of how beautiful a person you are.I nominate you for Dream Out Loud Legendendary Poet of the Year.
Who needs a Shakespearian sonnet when my favourite writer is right here?
Without this place I would never have found my best friend in the world.
Thankyou Dream Out Loud...
p.s. If I got way too sappy and crossed a line, you can tie me to a tree and place a walkman with NStink blaring on me head as punishment. Or you can just punch me in chat sometime hehe
