Your Autumn haiku describes both the positive and negative features of that season. You mention the "cool whispers" that replace the heat and humidity, but you also foretell the "wintry blasts" just around the corner. Rod

Thanks for the read and encouraging review.
Comment from SimianSavant
Nice contrast between whispers and blast. The colors, pic and font all work well, for a cohesive entry that should be competitive in the contest. The only thing I suggest taking a look at is your vertical line height, which is causing letter collisions ("bring" is hitting "festival") when the text wraps on smaller mobile devices. Since your text shows fine and has ample spacing on larger displays, the most straightforward fix is to turn off word wrapping. Not sure how to do that in the advanced editor, as I don't use it, but in the basic editor I do it with CSS: "white-space:nowrap".
If you have no idea what I am talking about, I can send you a screenshot : )
Thanks for the read and good luck in the contest,

Can I just put an extra space between bring and festival? If not, I would appreciated the screenshot of the process. Thanks for your read and suggestion.

An extra space will probably put TOO much space between the lines. Here is how I do it in the basic editor:
I will have to look at the "advanced" editor and see if I can replicate it there.
-
I will try retyping in basic mode.

The world is your oyster in basic mode. Just remember that once you use it, every time you reopen your entry, you must toggle it back to basic mode before saving it. You can learn everything for free at w3schools.com, and also try out thing in the advanced editor and save them to see how certain things work (like custom font names). I always use div tags instead of span though. Good luck and let me know if you have questions.
