- Don't worry if you've not received a reply during this latest subs window. We've had a massive response and it's taking a bit of time to work through the emails. If you still haven't heard by December 21st, give the DB a nudge. JH x
- For information: before we upload poems on the DB, we endeavour to contact poets with the news. Gmail accounts cause us problems (they come bouncing straight back so I use a different email account to get through). Do check your spam/junk folder if you're expecting a reply. JH
- Righto! Been out and done some Christmassy stuff. Mug of coffee by the laptop. All other jobs put on hold ... LET THE POETRY BEGIN !!! #DirigibleBalloon #PoetryForChildren dirigibleballoon.org

- There's been a super response to our Dec. flight call-out. Thank you to all our poets (poets appearing on the Balloon automatically become members of the DB Club). Subs window closing at midnight GMT. JH & the crew (Arthur the Dog) will be tied to the laptops for a while now. 🎈
- The submission window for our December flight closes in one week (Sunday December 14th). Still plenty of time to send poems for us to consider. Do please check out the guidelines on our website >>> dirigibleballoon.org/about #PoetryForChildren 🎈
- The Dirigible Balloon poetry submission window will open on Monday December 1st and close on Sunday December 14th. The guidelines are on the website. This is an open call with no theme. We're looking for poems to entertain and intrigue children. We are a global poetry platform. #PoetryForChildren 🎈

- Reposted by Jonathan HumbleHonest to god. It’s insanely problematic nobody checks Trump on his misogyny. This creep is the example for how millions of young boys think they should treat girls, and for how millions of young girls think they should be treated. Burn the patriarchy to the ground. #momsky
