'alt.arts.poetry.comments' (known as a.a.p.c) is a Usenet newsgroup, created on July 6, 1997 by poet Michael Giardina as an alternative to the long-established rec.arts.poems for those who specifically sought helpful comments on their writing. The group's heyday for on-topic posts was approximately between 1999 and 2002, but both poetry and comments continue to be posted.
