What is the aim or goal of your writing: 2nd ed. says, "As editor I have endeavored to give the amateur, that is the beginner, a show place, if he has something original to say, in a creative manner, even though the form of presentation may be imperfect, and at the same time offer him a hint or two toward improvement. As a poet I have originated the weave pattern which has been well accepted by many in the poetry field as a valid form with a useful place in the poet's repertoire for creative expression in the modern milieu. The weave pattern is a five line stanza done with a syllable count of 9-11-13-11-9."
