146 Poems of Love update: I will begin sending out notifications this weekend! Keep in mind that because the deadline was extended to September 1^st I will be sending notifications as late as the end of September.

Again, thank you SO MUCH to all of you who have taken the time to help spread the word and submit! You’re awesome.
