Bards -competition

[kyleena of the rom]

Greetings Lucais, from friend Kyleena,
    You know, there are quarters who would pay good money to be able to say 
that they have not heard my voice for  long periods of time....
BUT, I am glad to "hear" from you, too. I have been saving "the best of" any 
of the advices that have been posted on this line so that I could have them 
on paper to share with other/new bards who either aren't on line yet or have 
missed all this wonderful advice. Since (install accent here): "I am but 
poor Gypsy, who ever would believe me for wonderous words of wisdom like 
this...".  It is nice to have other and more established words at hand.--so 
far, everything you've said has made the "book". Thank you.
   I have not had much experience as a judge, and have always marvelled that 
there are (to my knowledge) no written guidelines to help us guide new bard 
towards higher achievements. (It has always been easier to learn something 
right the first time than it is to have to relearn it.) So my question about 
competition documentation was not really geared towards a specific piece-at 
this time. I'd like to hold a rain-check on that offer for specific help 
though....
   Til then, thankyou for your advice, and I hope to be seeing you more 
often at events. (Have you considered a raggle-taggle persona to get away 
from the rigors and duties that keep you from shopping (I mean stopping) 
by???   I mean bye.----Kyleena.
