Getting Around in Poems-and-Quotes Main sections (Part 1)

Being new to a site can be rather confusing. Here you will find the answers to common questions that are asked everyday. If you do have a question that is not addressed in any of these articles then, please, ask and someone will try to answer it when possible. This particular article (1 of 3) will guide you through the main links at the top of your page.

Let us start with a tour:

At the top of your screen you will see different links that can be helpful. The first link is title Poems & Quotes. Clicking on this link will simply take you to the front page giving you a chance to view:

3) Recent articles about writing poetry
4) Newsletter

By clicking on the links provided in each section you will then be taken to that particular poem or article. If you fill in the information on the newsletter section, providing us with your email address, you will then start receiving a newsletter from Poems-and-Quotes.

The next link on the top of you screen is to allow you or a friend to register here at P-n-Q. Just simply click on the link marked register and then fill in the information required.
