En Avant And All That

This week [have unfortunately received no comments about last week's poetry-most of which was, I thought, quite terrible. If people actually ad the verse that appears on the literary pages and think my standard too high or narrow then perhaps they will be so kind as to send critism of the verse, that appears so I can publish what they actually think.

This week there is what one young lady (the writer) regards as a short story. For my part I think it no more than the first stage of writing a story. This is the stage of 'emots' where the ideas and feelings are being captured - but it lacks the quality of the finished art form. Most student writing falls lamentably into this category.
