Verse-Virtual is a special place.  Unusual, to be sure.  I imagine you won't find anything quite like it elsewhere on the Internet.

We are a community first.  And then we are a journal.  In the beginning the community came out of the journal.  Now the journal comes out of the community.

Here, the focus is on kindness.  Kindness and care.  These, plus a bit of reading and writing make for what has become a virtual family.  A large one.  

The process couldn't be simpler:  

Readers read the poems in the journal. When they come across poems they like they write emails to the authors to tell them.  Communication happens; friendships develop.

V-Vs also write short reviews of poems they like and send them out to all the persons on the current-month's email list of contributors (I send the list to all).
