Return to Sender

I just got my poems returned to me. No it was not a rejection letter. It was a notice saying the company had closed it's door in 2011. Angst! Now I have to go through the poetry book, and choose another company preferably in the US this time. But there aren't many beginner companies in there. The few the there want like 10 poems, so I better start writing- and a short biography in a cover letter. Gee, what am I supposed to say about my writing career, I don't know...I've never been published....
*draws mind blank" any way I will keep on writing and hopefully crank out some decent poetry....that's my rant.
