Screening Books for a Contest

I just finished screening 100 books for the Kent contest. Five go on to the final round. It's heartbreakingly simple to do . . . Heartbreaking because so there are just so many poets, so many pages, so many hearts spilled out on the page. Simple in the way that cream rises to the top. A good book announces itself. It has something to say and to say beautifully.

And a winning font, I've heard.

Times New Roman, 12 point seems to be the one. Not that I really think the font matters, but it does seem to be the winning font.
