To keep myself from losing track of: all the 2026 contests I've entered, all the 2026 contests I've volunteered myself as a judge (or let myself be volun-told into judging), all the 2026 books I've had to read as a contestant or as a judge, all the 2026 deadlines, and all the other important stuff, here is a book that registers all these 2026 things in a somewhat organized fashion. With occasional commentary. For the record, I am not Lady Whistledown, and I do not have all the gossip of the ton. Nota bene: Although other people are welcome to browse my public contest logs and look for contests, look for information about details of contests (i.e. you want me to pour you some tea), etc, these contest logs are primarily for my own use. I enter so many contests that I can't keep track of them without a log. I forget important details, too, including things like "Note to self: You do not get along with this contest host, best not participate in their contests." Like my 2024 and 2025 contest logs, this journal was never meant to be an "expose" book. I'm not exposing anybody. Contests are matters of public record, as are any comments made in the contest books. I'm just a ditz who needs a written log to keep track of everything. I would lose my head if it hadn't been attached to my shoulders. I DO NOT CONSENT TO MY POETRY AND PROSE BEING USED TO TRAIN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Ilang beses ng nasaktan. Ilang beses ng nalunod ang isipan sa malalim na agam-agam. Ilang beses ng lumuha at umiyak ng dahil sa nararamdaman. Umiyak dahil walang mapagsabihan. Lumuha dahil takot na mahusgahan. Kaya't tanging isang pirasong papel at matintang bolpen ang hiniram. Isinulat ang lungkot, galit, poot at kasiyahan. Isinulat sa paraang ako at ang mga nakaranas ng dinanas ko ang makakaunawa at makakalam na ang mga talatang isinulat ay hindi talata lamang. P.S. Hi minna-chin! This is your author/manunulat, Senathren, and I want to make a safe space for everyone who can freely rant about their feelings if they are having a hard times or either good times. As well as to express my feelings and emotions through poems. I hope everyone will engage in this small platform of mine.(⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡
