The deadline is four weeks from the published date, so the deadline for the May 18 idea will be June 18 and so on. The submissions are initially published on this website and then in a book.Send your submissions to tsaunderspubs@gmail.com and include Idea in the subject bar. They will be published on this page. In time they will feature in their own book. Good luck!

Macrame...
I think I must be quite barmy,
to try to learn macrame.
I'd need a whole army,
but nothing here, can harm me.
It's so intricate you see,
a creative, patterned hobby.
Turning hemp into knots,
I'll soon be hooked... or not?
Learning designs, for my home,
I'm stuck here learning, all alone.
Turning myself into knots,
making hangers, for these plant- pots!
I am now twisted up, ooh aahh!
Think I'll just go make, that cuppa!
Knew my tired fingers, would suffer!
