This cookie is quite harmless; however, it saves a list of your favourite posts on this site. Up to 99 of your favourites will appear on your computer only, in the list to the right, on the device that has the cookie. Note that favourites saved on one device will not be favourites on others, and that clearing your cookies will clear that particular device's list.
I am not sure about this, but the favourites list should work, even if you are not a subscriber. I know that it does work for subscribers.

I intend to continue writing for wordcurrents; however, I am hoping to find some guest poets who will spell me off so I can look after the revisions and editing that I would like to do. This includes editing my own work, and possibly editing the work of some other poets who asked me to take a look at their work. The Internet has certainly been a boon to this writer. To the many readers of wordcurrents, thank you. Continue reading
