I've been looking at your humor section --"My God," said the Princess-- and
(even more) at your anthology. I'm delighted and impressed. It could be the best thing
of its kind on the web. L.C.

I've visited [Patchword] several times, and I'm distinctly impressed.
Not only is there good writing, in prose as well as verse, but the coffee-break
pages are not unamusing. [...] I'm as impressed by the design as by the
content. PJR

great. Love the design -- easy on the eye and stylish. [...] Have found [Patchword]
fast and consistent. Gary Murnin
I like Patchword very much. A brilliant idea. Congratulations! It's so

is lively. I'm going to have a go at your games soon! HW

You've been a great help. Tom McColl

Your site is very professional and much better than some of the other
ones I've come across. [...] I've only just recently had the internet
installed, and after looking up various poetry sites, it turns out that
there's not really that many. [...] there's certainly a need and room
for a new site such as yours. TMcC

at it last night and were well impressed. SMB

I've had a look at your Patchword site and think it's a good idea. OK, it's
early days yet but I'm sure if the word gets out you will be very busy sorting
out what to leave out!
We have a Speakeasy meeting on Friday and I shall tell everyone about Patchword.
Maybe I/we/they can send you some of my/our/their poetry or short stories
etc for your consideration.
Kind regards
Martin Brocklebank

I've had a look at Patchword. My word, you've changed if those photographs
are anything to go by! [...] I like the autogenerated story. Archer should
look to his laurels. JD

luck with it. Would you like me to feature it in BuzzWords?
