Whoa! I've never heard of a super sonnet, but love it. I continue to futz around with regular sonnets (Shake, Pet, and Spence) and they roil me enough that I'm not sure about digging into those extra lines -- However, maybe there will be some experience or line that pushes me beyond the delicious fourteen.

Thank you, Evelyn, for checking in.
I hadn't heard of a supersonnet either until recently. Google tells me it's a thing but Patrick M Ohana tells me it's not. Personally, I think a supersonnet is okay as long as you explain what the difference is…
