I wonder why?

Ya could have just wrote them down on a piece of paper if you wanted a record ??

Zondrae,
I also wondered why not too many poets use that section - I think it is very useful. However, it should be available to the general public, for you would be surprised how many people will go back to previous poems if they like a poets work.
I sometimes glance through the people on line on the bushverse site where you can actually see what they are viewing, and you would be amazed at the posts they are looking at. So Heather, don't think that someone wouldn't be interested in going back to your previous poems!!

Marty, that section is probably of more use to the general public who are not on the site regularly. If they come across a poem that they like, they can easily look back at that poets previous work without having to scroll through page after page trying to find them. If I hadn't been on the site for awhile, and saw a new poet who's work I like, I would use it to see what else they had posted! I know you have options to view a persons previous posts, but that includes all their chat type posts also - if they are very active on site, you can scroll through a lot of posts before you get to one of their poems!!

Fair enough!! However, I wouldn't generally buy a book on the basis of one poem - I like to look through a few poems before deciding whether the book is something I want, or at least know that I like most of the writers/poets work.
It's a bit like buying a CD only to find the song you wanted is the only one you like on the whole disc!!
But, each to their own, I guess!! I might just be odd!!

We need iPoems, don't we. People can download your poems individually for 0.99$ each!
