The "POETRY" section of the site has now been incorporated into the bulletin board. This will allow authors to retain anonymity if they choose to, but will also allow others to contact them directly about their writings (if they choose to allow it in their member profile -- "My Stuff").

If you are not already a member of our bulletin board system, you MUST register before submitting your own article or story. Please note, we do not allow registrations from a Yahoo or Hotmail account.

We do not allow numbers anywhere on the site, so if your poetry contains numbers related to weight, size, BMI or calories you should edit it appropriately.

Anything highly triggering may not be approved.

All writings will be reviewed by moderators and approved for display (they will not appear immediately like other posts on the bulletin board).

We have chosen to now accept poetry this way to assist us with the time management required in running the entire site. It also encourages support and communication in all those who suffer with an Eating Disorder. If you do NOT wish to communicate with other members, you can still post your poetry here -- when you register just be sure to check the box that says you do not want other members to be able to e-mail you, and do not include any additional contact info (like ICQ number or AIM/Yahoo nickname).

Previous poetry that had appeared on the site will always be available below -- However, NEWLY SUBMITTED POETRY WILL NOT APPEAR HERE.
